Marine fuel and lube supplier Bunker One on Friday (23 August) said it completed its first bunkering operation at the outer anchorage of Sepetiba.

Earlier this month, Bunker One and Acelen, the largest bunker producer in the Brazilian state of Bahia, announced a new operation at the outer anchorage in Rio de Janeiro, a strategic port for South Atlantic maritime routes.

“Our new Bunkering operation in Sepetiba OPL, Rio de Janeiro is up and running and the first successful delivery has already taken place,” said Peter Zachariassen, Chief Executive Officer of Bunker One, in a social media post.

“A significant milestone for the Bunker One and Acelen partnership. This expansion is a game changer for vessels on East-South Atlantic routes and we are proud to offer new bunkering alternatives for the Offshore Oil & Gas sector as well.”

Acelen has stated that its goal is to deliver 20,000 metric tonnes of bunker fuel monthly in Sepetiba, meeting the needs of bulk carriers, large cargo ships, and the oil and gas industry.
