Chimbusco Pan Nation completes B24 biofuel bunkering operation in Hong Kong

Hong Kong-based marine fuel oil supplier Chimbusco Pan Nation Petro-Chemical on Thursday (18 January) supplied 800 metric tonnes (mt) of ISCC-EU certified B24 marine biofuel to UNITED CROWN, a NS United Kaiun Kaisha Ltd vessel. 

Chimbusco Pan Nation said the collaboration recognises CPN’s critical role in promoting sustainable growth in the maritime industry.

“The collaboration with NS United stands is an indication of preference on the types of alternative fuels by the maritime industry. B24 marine biofuel is a blend of 24% B100 biodiesel and Marine Fuel Oil, which significantly reduces carbon emissions and lowers its carbon footprint,” the firm said in a social media post.

“Such product aligns with global efforts to combat climate change and reduces environmental impact.”

“CPN is committed to be the frontrunner in the transition towards more sustainable marine fuel options, and would continue to seek new collaborative opportunities to achieve broader environmental impact.”
