An overview of bunker fuel sales in the world’s largest bunkering port, Singapore, indicates a substantial change in the market in 2020, when restrictions limiting the sulfur content of bunker fuels shifted from 3.5% to 0.5%. This global implementation has been phased in since 2010 and became active in 2020. This led to a switch to fuels such as Low Sulfur Fuel Oil, which now dominates. Alternative fuels, such as LNG, remain marginal but are growing.
