Two hundred ships were refueled in the port of Singapore with fuel containing pollutants
Fuel dispensed with high concentrations of organo-chlorinated
April 14, 2022
The Port Authority of Singapore explained that the first investigations have established that this fuel has been supplied from Glencore Singapore which, informed of the contamination, has proceeded to test its fuels by ascertaining that one of these, coming from abroad, contained about 15,000 parts for million COCs, fuel that in part had already been sold to PetroChina International (Singapore) which in turn had it provided to ships in the port of Singapore. The MPA specified that this fuel was supplied to about 200 ships and that 80 of these have reported various problems with the fuel pumps and engines.
