ExxonMobil Asia Pacific Pte. Ltd., a supplier of marine fuels at Singapore port, is in the midst of a bunker claim against international bunker trading firm GP Global APAC Pte. Ltd. at the High Court of the Republic of Singapore, learned Manifold Times.

It is seeking a total bunker claim of USD 2.8 million (exact: USD 2,824,009.42) from 13 invoices; seven are under a Term Sales Contract entered on 30 April 2020 and six are under Spot Contracts, according to documents obtained by the Singapore bunkering publication from the court.
