The market is studied from a broader global perspective as well as a more detailed regional viewpoint.The report projects that the market, which had a valuation of 372.30 mn tons in 2013, will expand at a 3.1% CAGR over the forecast period and reach 460 mn tons by 2020.

In-depth research report on Bunker Fuel Market with Full TOC at : http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/bunker-fuel-market.html

Bunker fuel, the fractionally distilled fuel derived from crude oil, is used chiefly by ships. Bunker fuel is known to be more polluting owing to its highly unrefined nature as compared to other petroleum products. Owing to this, the bunker fuel market has remained at the center of numerous controversies related to marine environment pollution in the past years. This has led to the enforcement of several emissions control areas (ECAs) where marine vessels are prohibited from burning fuel with sulfur content of more than 0.1%. This has led to an increasing shift towards low-sulfur bunker fuel. The volatile prices of crude oil on the global front, which are currently at a record low, are also significantly impacting the market.

The report segments the market on the basis of four criteria: fuel grade, end user, seller type, and geography.On the basis of fuel grade, the market is segmented into IFO 180, IFO 380, IFO others, and MGO/MDO. On the basis of end user, the market is segmented into tanker vessels, container vessels, bulk and general cargo vessels, and other vessels. On the basis of seller type, the market is segmented into small independent distributors, leading independent distributors, and major oil companies. On the basis of geography, the market is segmented into North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East, and Rest of the World (RoW).

Owing to the flourishing marine transport market and the escalating demand for bunker fuel in developing regions of the globe, Asia Pacific has emerged as the most lucrative market for bunker fuel producers in the past few years. Demand for bunker fuel is high in Singapore and China. Europe follows Asia Pacific in terms of consumption of bunker fuel.


The report presents a comprehensive overview of the global bunker fuel market with the help of detailed business profile, details regarding financial and business strategies, and a SWOT analysis of some of the key vendors in the global bunker fuel market. Recent developments in the market and activities such as mergers and acquisitions are also thoroughly analyzed. The report presents business profiles of companies such as Chemoil Energy Limited, World Fuel Services Corporation, Aegean Marine Petroleum Network, Inc., Gazpromneft Marine Bunker LLC, Gulf Agency Company Ltd, Exxon Mobil Corporation, BP Marine Ltd., Royal Dutch Shell plc, Lukoil-Bunker LLC, and Bunker Holding A/S.

Research Reports Bunker Fuel Market 2014 - 2020

This is a comprehensive study that evaluates the present dynamics and growth trajectory of the global bunker fuel market in terms of revenue and volume. The report predicts that the global bunker fuel market is likely to reach an estimated volume of 460 million tons by 2020. The market, therefore, is poised to exhibit a moderate 3.1% CAGR during 2014-2020, expanding from 372.30 million tons in 2013. Bunker fuel is a fractionally distilled liquid fuel derived from crude oil. Also known as fuel oil, the substance can be classified on the basis of its chemical composition, intended purpose, and boiling point. Unlike other petroleum products, bunker fuel is more polluting and highly unrefined.

Apart from fuel oil, there are other middle distillate fuels, which are also used as bunker fuels. The cost incurred on fuel accounts for approximately 70% of the overall voyage expense of a vessel. The report states that a majority of ship operators are inclined toward purchasing a large amount of bunker fuel that could last the entire trip at once from the ports, where the prices are comparatively low.There are two main kinds of fuel available in the global bunker fuel market at present, namely residual and distillate fuel. Among these, residual fuel accounted for a dominant share in global bunker fuel consumption in 2013. With an increasing number of transit routes being earmarked as ECAs or emission control areas, it is imperative for vessel operators to modify their fuel consumption in the near future. “A leading number of vessel operators will have to shift to middle distillate or low-sulfur fuels to comply with the stringent sulfur emission norms enforced across ECAs,” said a lead TMR analyst.

The bunker fuels sold by suppliers must meet the norms defined in ISO8217. Bunker fuel is presently supplied by three major seller categories: large independent bunker suppliers, small independent bunker suppliers, and major oil companies. World Fuel Services Corporation and Chemoil Energy Limited are the leading companies in the sector and make available bunker fuel across major ports of the world. Meanwhile, other companies such as Lukoil-Bunker LLC and Gazpromneft Marine Bunker LLC supply bunker fuel only in a restricted number of ports. With escalating demand for bunker fuel across developing regions, Asia Pacific has emerged as the most lucrative market for leading players in the global bunker fuel market. Demand for bunker fuel is exceptionally high in China and Singapore, which are also the leading contributors to the global bunker fuel market. Asia Pacific is trailed by Europe in the global bunker fuel market on the basis of consumption. Russia is strategically positioned within the political boundaries of Europe, which has helped the country to emerge as the largest supplier of the bunker fuel oil. Russia supplies fuel oil across major ports in Europe at a reasonable price.
