Chimbusco Oil Storage & Transportation (Jiangsu) Co., Ltd on Friday (6 May) said it has created a “special class” of bonded bunker tankers during the Covid-19 epidemic in order to ensure the smooth supply of bonded bunker fuel to international ships.
The company’s epidemic prevention and control leading group, together with the relevant personnels of the business department, held several special meetings to establish the “special class” for bunkering operations at Jiangyin port, it shared.
The unit has since supplied 98 ships with a total 60,243 metric tonnes (mt) of bonded marine fuel oil, including nine ships from COSCO SHIPPING Group with a total of 8,782 mt of bunkers.
It has been praised by bonded oil ship owners due to its reliability and even gained new customers during the epidemic.
“We will continue to serve customers and seize opportunities to develop domestic trade markets.
During the epidemic, the Jiangsu company tapped into the market through telephone, WeChat, video and other methods, and successively developed 12 new customers such as Taihe Port,” said the company.
