Trailing 12-month (TTM) bunker sales at the Port of Singapore reached a new record in August 2025, climbing to 55.38 million metric tonnes (MT). This marked the highest rolling 12-month volume ever recorded for the city-state, according to port data processed by Bunker Index.

The milestone came on the back of steady gains in monthly bunker volumes over recent months. Compared with July 2025, TTM sales were up by 405,809 MT, or 0.74%, extending a run of consistent month-on-month increases since February this year.

The latest figures reinforce Singapore's status as the world's top bunkering hub. After briefly dipping earlier in 2025, rolling 12-month sales have not only recovered but surpassed all historical highs, breaking through the 55.3 million MT threshold for the first time.

The growth trend has been particularly notable since mid-2023, when TTM sales crossed the 50 million MT mark for the first time since November 2021. From there, volumes have risen almost uninterrupted, driven by strong demand for marine fuels amid resilient global trade flows.

TTM figures are especially useful for gauging market momentum because they smooth out monthly volatility and seasonal effects. The August 2025 peak underscores a broader upward trajectory rather than just a one-off spike in monthly sales.

With the all-time record now set, the market will be monitoring whether Singapore can sustain or even build on these levels in the coming months.
