India, Pune, Oct. 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Bunker Fuel Market was experiencing several notable trends and patterns indicating both challenges and opportunities. The volume of global maritime trade is a significant driver for the bunker fuel market. As international trade and shipping activities increase, so does the demand for bunker fuel. This driver is closely tied to economic growth and globalization. According to a report by Fortune Business Insights, titled “Bunker Fuel Market Size, Share And Global Trend By Fuel Grade (IFO 380, IFO 180, MGO/MDO), By Seller Type (Major Oil Company, Large Independent Distributors, Small Independent Distributors), By End User (Container Fleet, Tanker Fleet, Bulk And General Cargo Fleet), And Geography Forecast Till 2030,”

Stringent Emission Regulations: Environmental regulations, particularly those aimed at reducing emissions of sulfur oxides (SOx) and nitrogen oxides (NOx), have a substantial impact on the bunker fuel market. These regulations, such as the International Maritime Organization's (IMO) sulfur cap regulations, drive the demand for cleaner and lower-sulfur bunker fuels.
IMO 2020 and IMO 2030: The IMO 2020 regulations mandated a significant reduction in the sulfur content of bunker fuels, leading to the increased use of low-sulfur fuels like very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) and marine gas oil (MGO). Additionally, IMO 2030 targets aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the shipping industry, which may drive the adoption of alternative and cleaner fuels.
Fuel Price Volatility: Bunker fuel prices are influenced by global oil prices and geopolitical factors. Fluctuations in crude oil prices impact the cost of bunker fuels and, in turn, the profitability of shipping companies. Price volatility can be a major driver of decision-making in the bunker fuel market.
