Bunker prices @ noon, August 22

The latest bunker prices for the shipping industry are as follows:

  • $885 per metric tonne (MT) for high sulphur fuel oil (HSFO).
  • $934 MT for very low sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO).

HSFO has increased from $814, the level it held for all of last week.

By increasing to $934 from Friday's $924, VLSFO seems to be edging back to $956 which is where it was a week ago.

Cockett Marine Oil South Africa reports adequate availability of both HSFO and VLSFO.
