Bunker Fuels Used In Shipping. All You Need To Know

[@TowBoatSam]

I am a bunker tankerman (pic) in New Orleans. We use 30,000 barrel barges and tow boats to fuel ships with MGO, VLSFO (Very Low Sulfur Fuel Oil), and RMG 380 (HFO)

Same here, but in Houston.

Only thing I have known working in the crude oil industry sector is that the sulfur content has been reduced in bunker fuels in 2020 or they have to use some type of scrubbers. I know in ports it is getting more popular to draw power from some of the host ports because they can and do run more efficient and cleaner burning generators to power the ships. I speculate that that has nothing to do with this accident. Thank you Juan, good story and awesome visual aids!

Would have liked to have seen some numbers documenting the popularity and the market penetration of the alternatives. Omitted, for probably good reasons, was small nuclear reactors.

I've really taken away a lot from this man's ''commodity brief'' presentations, especially when it comes to the marine transport business. His discussions on shipping documents have also been very valuable to me, especially because I am a trainee in international trade and was very new to the topic in the beginning. I would definitely enjoy to see more of commodity brief.

I am sure the kites will work good during a storm.

And they said they went from sails to coal because it was inefficient why would going back to sails WORK TODAY.

The future of ships and shipping is small modular nuclear reactors!
