Market Highlights:
The growth of the shipping industry is not the only factor driving the bunker fuel market. Various other drivers are shaping the industry’s growth trajectory. One of the key drivers is the increasing demand for low-sulfur bunker fuel. This has led to a surge in demand for low-sulfur bunker fuel, which is compliant with the new regulations.
Increasing trade activities across the world have led to the need for simplified measures and medium for transportation. Business trades carried through seawater transportation are gaining huge popularity due to their exceptional benefits. Fuel bunkers play a huge role in trade activities through ships and other carriers. Furthermore, advancements in fuel bunkers such as the reduction of harmful gases in the content of fuel have led to a huge demand for the product. The report identifies key factors that are responsible for the growth of the market, along with factors that have restrained the growth of the market in recent years.
While the bunker fuel market presents numerous opportunities, it also faces several challenges. One of the primary challenges is the volatility of oil prices. The bunker fuel market is highly dependent on crude oil prices, and fluctuations in oil prices can significantly impact the profitability of the industry. In addition, geopolitical tensions and regulatory changes can create uncertainty in the market and impact the demand for bunker fuel.
Another challenge facing the industry is the complexity of supply chain management. Bunker fuel is typically sourced from refineries and transported to ports, where it is delivered to ships. Managing this supply chain requires sophisticated logistics capabilities, which can be costly and time-consuming. The report has provided an in-depth analysis of how such regulatory compliances will impact the businesses of prevailing companies. Furthermore, the report also stresses on business strategies adopted by these companies and gauges the impact of these companies on the global bunker fuel market.
IMO-Compliance on Bunker Fuel Will Create Greater Adoption
In response to the impact of fuel residues and pollution on seawater, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) has announced that it plans to upgrade the allowable sulphur content in bunker fuel. The IMO states that the permissible sulphur content in bunker fuel will be brought down to 0.5% from the previous margin of 3.5%. This will come around as a welcoming step and many companies will look to capitalize on the latest regulatory update.
The drop in sulphur content will allow and environment-friendly mode of sea-water commute, a major percentage of which includes trade activities. The advent of low-sulphur and highly efficient fuel will lead to a rising uptake among users across the world.
