China's Zhoushan port aims to raise bonded bunker fuel sales to 5 mil mt by 2020 Total bunker fuel sales is expected to hit 4 million mt this year. France's Total launches first 'large' LNG bunker ship to propel LNG as a marine fuel French oil major Total launched its first large LNG bunker vessel at a time when infrastructure has been deemed inadequate by many bunker fuel players and thus a hurdle to the widespread adoption of the gas as a marine fuel.
