ExxonMobil on Friday (20 December) said it has successfully completed over 100 bunker deliveries using electronic bunker delivery notes (eBDNs) in collaboration with Singapore-based Bunkerchain, its first approved eBDN vendor.

“As the first accredited bunker fuel supplier to introduce MFMS in Singapore, we are proud to lead the way in implementing eBDNs,” the company said in a social media post.

Ognjen Plakalovic, Head of Asia Pacific Aviation and Marine Sales, ExxonMobil, said: “Our implementation of eBDNs is expected to help drive efficiency, enhance trust, and boost productivity. We continue to advocate for transparency and value the advantages of digitisation.”

Starting from April 1, 2025, marine fuel suppliers in Singapore must offer digital bunkering services, including electronic bunker delivery notes (eBDNs). The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) expects this initiative to save the industry up to 40,000 man-days annually.

According to the MPA, the move will also enable more efficient data sharing between bunker buyers and suppliers, which will help streamline administrative processes, improve accountability, and facilitate regulatory compliance.

“Integrating eBDNs with mass flow metering systems (MFMS) greatly minimizes the risk of manual errors or intentional tampering with fuel quantity figures, thereby enhancing integrity and trust in fuel transactions,” the company added.

STR plans 100,000 m³ biofuels storage project in Rotterdam

Service Terminal Rotterdam (STR) on Wednesday (17 June) said it is launching project GreenSTR focused on biofuels storage in Rotterdam.

STR is Rotterdam’s bunker facility which is currently focused on the storage of fuels, mostly for the marine market.

The company said the terminal lies in the heart of the Port of Rotterdam, and is well connected through its jetties suitable for a range of vessel sizes as well as barges.

“STR’s core capabilities lie in its flexibility to handle various grades of fuel oil, as well as bioblending,” the company said.

“Project GreenSTR fills the gap of needed infrastructure tailored at the storage and blending of marine fuels.”

The project will build approximately 100,000 cubic metre (m3) of storage tanks on a vacant plot of land adjacent to the current terminal and able to store a range of products including biodiesel, ethanol and methanol.
