Marine fuel supplier Vitol Bunkers on Friday (16 May) said it has started supplying bunkers by barge to the West Africa (WAF) region.
The company said it has started with initial deliveries of Very Low Sulphur Fuel (VLSFO) and Marine Gasoil (MGO) and plans to expand its offering to the full spectrum of marine fuels.
“Bunkering by barge offers flexibility of location, taking place wherever there is a need, including Dakar and offshore Lomé,” it said in a statement.
The latest expansion means that Vitol Bunkers now serves customers in locations across Asia, Australia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East and North America.
Ammar Hussaini, Vitol Bunkers, said: “Supplying bunkers by barge to the WAF market allows us to support our customers flexibly in the location and with the fuels that they need.”
