China Marine Bunker (PetroChina) Co. Ltd. (Chimbusco), formerly known as China Marine Bunker Supply Company, on Tuesday (22 February) celebrated its 50th anniversary with the launch of a commemorative logo.

“Under the leadership of the two major shareholders of COSCO SHIPPING and PetroChina, we will move forward with one heart and one mind, and continue to move towards building a world-class ship fuel service provider,” it states.
“A new journey, a new start.”
