UAE's Fujairah marine fuel sales extend slide to 7-month low in June
By Jeslyn Lerh
SINGAPORE, July 17 (Reuters) -Marine fuel sales at the United Arab Emirates' Fujairah fell to a seven-month low in June, extending declines to a third month, latest data showed.
Sales volumes at the world's third-largest bunkering port, excluding lubricants, totalled 610,765 cubic metres (about 605,000 metric tons), the lowest since November, based on Fujairah Oil Industry Zone (FOIZ) data published by S&P Global Commodity Insights.
The monthly volume eased 0.8% from May, but was up 0.9% from the same month last year.
Total sales in the first half of 2024 were 3.8 million tons, up 8% from the same period in 2023, as broader shipping tensions in the Red Sea lifted bunkering demand at key ports.
However, sales have weakened in recent months as supply has tightened due to robust summer demand, while cheaper prices at neighbouring port Khor Fakkan continue to draw away some buying interest from Fujairah, according to industry sources.
High-sulphur bunker sales fell 8.5% from May to 149,951 cubic metres in June, the FOIZ data showed.
Low-sulphur bunker sales, including residual fuels and marine gasoils, totalled 460,814 cubic metres, up 2% month-on-month.
The market share of low-sulphur bunkers rose to 75% in June, while that of high-sulphur bunkers was at 25%.
