Danish bunker and tanker group Monjasa has set up a new base in Africa as it completed its first ship-to-ship transfer of low sulphur fuel oil there.
The company's 13,800-dwt African Runner (built 1998) transferred 200 tonnes of VLSFO on 21 October in Lome, Togo, it told TradeWinds.
Its first ever VLSFO transfer took place off the UK in September, after years of preparations for the IMO 2020 regulations.
