CEPSA ready to offer 1.00% sulphur fuels


CEPSA Marine Fuels says it is ready to begin offering 1.00% fuels at all the ports where it supplies.

Spanish bunker supplier CEPSA Marine Fuels, S.A. (CMF) has announced that it is ready to offer 1.00% sulphur content fuels at all the ports where it supplies.

The sulphur limits applicable will be reduced from 1.50% to 1.00%, being further reduced to 0.10 % from January 1st 2015.

"Thanks to Cepsa’s refineries at Tenerife, Algeciras and Huelva, CMF will guarantee the best quality of these fuels and all products, always adapting to market demand and international standard regulations," CMF said in a statement.

CMF, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CEPSA, began its bunkering activities in 1930, suppyling marine fuel to vessels from the Tenerife refinery.

Today, CMF’s supplies fuel oil to vessels in the majority of Spain’s ports, including the Canary Islands, Strait of Gibraltar, Barcelona and Huelva, as well in Panama, Portugal, and Malta.
