84% OF FEBRUARY BUNKER SALES IN SINGAPORE ARE LOW-SULPHUR FUELS - BIMCO
BIMCOLow-sulphur fuels accounted for 84% of total February sales in Singapore, slightly up from 83% in January. The sale of low-sulphur fuel oil (LSFO) made up the largest component at 71.5%, with Marine Gas Oil (MGO) accounting for 12.5%.
 
Total bunker sales in February fell 16% to 3.9 million tonnes compared with January, reflecting lower demand for shipping as the coronavirus paralysed intra-Asian supply chains.
 
Now that both the sulphur cap and the non-compliant fuel oil carriage ban have come into force, the only ships still bunkering high-sulphur fuels are those with scrubbers installed. Just under 30% of the VLCC fleet currently has a scrubber fitted, compared to around 14% of the Aframax fleet, as the larger ship sizes have seen the greatest number of scrubber installations. Overall, 14.2% of the fleet, when measured in DWT, has a scrubber installed (source: Clarksons).
 
Advantage for scrubber fitted ships narrows
 
The collapse of the OPEC+ alliance means Saudi Arabia is preparing to flood the market with cheap crude oil. This has resulted in tumbling oil prices and consequently, lower bunker fuel costs.
 
On 17 March 2020, a metric ton of VLSFO cost USD 293, a 59% drop from USD 710 per metric ton on 1 January 2020, causing the VLSFO- HSFO spread to fall to USD 93 per metric ton. That represents the first time that the spread has fallen below USD 100, lowering the advantage that scrubber fitted ships have previously enjoyed. Similarly, the MGO-HFSO spread has fallen to its lowest level this year at just USD 112 per metric ton.
