Members of the ARA bunker trading team at Delta Energy are to operate under the the name Verde Marine Energy B.V. (VME) moving forwards, with the newly formed business commencing the supply of marine gasoil in the ARA region following investment from Dutch shipping firm Vertom B.V.

As part of the transition process, industry certifications and licenses have been transferred over to the new entity, and two time-chartered barges will be used on an exclusive basis to carry out deliveries.

Head of Trading, Joe Tierney, and his team will continue to work from their already established office in Rotterdam, with only a change to the entity structure.

Tierney commented: "This is a new and exciting challenge and the chance to work with another large and established shipping group will only strengthen our customer offering. In a time when the industry is changing, it is great to be part of a large but local shipping group like Vertom and we look forward to working with our clients as we navigate through what should be an interesting period of both change and growth for VME."

Bunker enquiries should be directed to the new general email address below.
