Marine bunkers boost the Europe fuel oil market growth based on their capacity to offer a high energy density, which makes them an effective energy source for large ships boarding on long expeditions
This efficacy enables vessels to transport significant cargo without the need for frequent refuelling stops. Marine bunkers use heavy fuel oils for ships and are crucial for trade due to their high energy density and efficiency. Ports and shipping routes are improved to accommodate marine bunkers, ensuring their consistent availability in Europe, and enabling seamless maritime transportation for large vessels across vast distances.
In April 2024, the UK energy company EnQuest aimed to commence oil drilling in the North Sea, expecting the most significant oil production in two decades. Equinor's Rosebank North Sea oil field, which was approved last September, is projected to extract an assessed 350 million barrels of oil. EnQuest's subsidiary, EnQuest Heather, obtained a license in February, one of the 24 newly granted licenses.
Petrochemicals enhance execution by improving ignition and reducing emissions such as sulfur, which is important for cleaning the air of marine vessels. These extracts also provide maintenance benefits by preventing deposits, leading to easier operation and longer engine life. In colder climates, they prevent fuel-related issues and offer corrosion protection in harsh marine environments.
