Shipergy launches digital VCOQ™certificate for enhanced bunker supplier selection insights

Marine fuel trading and procurement Shipergy on Tuesday (17 October) introduced its latest trademarked digital innovation: VCOQ™ (Verified Certificate of Quality). 

VCOQ™ offers companies enhanced supplier selection insights based on fuel quality. By leveraging fresher and less biased data than traditional COQs, VCOQ™ provides a level of clarity and accuracy previously unattainable. Exclusively for Shipergy’s bunker clients, the product is currently available free-of-charge.  The VCOQ™ covers all fuel grades at all ports worldwide, including new biofuel options.

Shipergy added VCOQ™ has been shortlisted for the esteemed Marine Fuels 360 Digitisation Award, contending with entries from much larger companies like ZeroNorth and Minerva Bunkering.

Daniel Rose, CEO of Shipergy, said: “Over 30 companies signed up for VCOQ™ during its beta phase, indicating its potential transformative impact on the marine fuel sector. Earning a spot among the award nominees reaffirms our commitment to pioneering digital solutions for the marine fuel industry. Offering VCOQ™ at no added cost to our clients emphasizes our dedication to quality and innovation.”

Rose, said: “Being shortlisted is a testament to VCOQ’s™ capabilities and highlights the groundbreaking direction in which Shipergy is headed. Our vision is clear: to propel the industry forward using top-tier, cutting-edge offerings.”
