US owner World Fuel Services (WFS) has boosted its UK bunkering fleet with a new charter.

The 3,200-dwt product carrier Whitstar (built 2004) was deployed in early September 2018 to operate along the east and south coast with the task of servicing UK terminals.

Owned by Whitaker Tankers of the UK, it is fitted with versatile deep-well pumps capable of delivering fuel in volumes of up to 450 cbm per hour.
