This report is intended to assist buyers of bunker fuel, which is a fuel produced through an oil refining process called fractional distillation. Bunker fuel is also known as bunker crude, marine fuel, fuel oil or residual fuel. Bunker fuel is thicker and heavier than most other fuel types, making it suitable to power large marine engines. This report covers all bunker fuels, but excludes other types of fuel, such as gasoline, propane and jet fuel. The key buyers of bunker fuel include shipping companies, cruise lines and the United States Navy. The key suppliers are crude oil refiners, but distributors and wholesalers also serve the market.
