Global Marine Fuel Oil Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025
Research SummaryMarine fuel oil, commonly known as bunker fuel, is a type of fuel specifically formulated for use in ships and maritime vessels. It is a heavy and viscous oil derived from crude oil that is primarily used to power large marine engines. Marine fuel oil is characterized by its high energy density, which makes it an efficient and cost-effective choice for powering vessels over long distances. It typically has a high sulfur content, although stricter environmental regulations have led to the development and use of low sulfur fuel oil (LSFO) and alternative fuels such as liquefied natural gas (LNG). Marine fuel oil is classified based on its viscosity, with different grades available to meet the specific requirements of various types of engines and vessels. It is stored in dedicated fuel tanks on board ships and delivered to vessels at ports through bunkering operations. With the global shipping industry being a major consumer of fuel oil, efforts are being made to transition towards more sustainable and environmentally friendly alternatives to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality.
