Format : Bunker Fuel Market Size - Global Industry, Share, Analysis, Trends and Forecast 2020 - 2027

The global bunker fuel market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 3.2% from 2020 to 2027 and expected to reach the market value of around USD 182.5 Billion by 2027.

Bunker fuel is a term used to indicate the fuels that are used to power engines of ships. The tanks where fuel is filled in the ships are called bunkers. Furthermore, bunkering is the process of supplying fuel for the use by ships and it also includes the shipboard logistics of loading fuel and distributing it among available bunker tanks.

Market Dynamics

The continuously expanding international seaborne trade along with the rapid technological development in different types of vessels and respective engines are driving the market growth. The increasing oil & gas exploration activities at deep offshore locations that require offshore vessels to perform these activities are boosting the global bunker fuel market value. The shifting trend in the transportation industry from conventional sources to much cleaner and affordable sources like LNG is additionally bolstering the market value. Furthermore, the rising environmental concern and favorable government initiative for the generation of energy from cleaner fuels are likely to create potential opportunities over the forecast period.

On the other hand, the implementation of the IMO 2020 regulation associated with the use of high sulfur content fuel owing to the environmental concern is expected to limit the growth over the forecast period from 2020 to 2027.

High Sulfur Fuel Oil (HSFO) segment dominated the global market

In 2019, High Sulfur Fuel Oil (HSFO) segment registered a major share (%) in the global market. Moreover, the segment is projected to experience a decline in the estimated period and very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) segment is projected to experience the fastest growth over the forecast timeframe from 2020 to 2027. The global initiative to move towards the cleaner alternatives owing to the increasing environmental concern is supporting the fastest growth of VLSFO.
