Bunker Supply

Thanks to its strategic positioning on major shipping routes, Malta is a key bunkering hub in the Mediterranean, where more than 2.5 million MT of bunkering products are lifted between the island’s main ports and anchorage areas every year.

Bunkers at port limits are permitted within various terminals in Valletta and Marsaxlokk ports, while bunkering offshore is allowed at six designated anchorage areas around Malta making it easier to lift bunkers in most weather conditions without deviations.

Various bunker grades are supplied by all barges, and road tankers are also deployed ashore to deliver MGO’s while vessels are alongside.

Our dedicated team has made a name for itself as one of Malta’s leading bunkering agents. Decades of experience have helped us to understand and service diverse client needs. We offer pro-activeness for a smooth and seamless bunkering operation that is timely and cost-efficient. Our team ensures the Master and operators and owners are constantly updated with weather conditions and bunkering prospects, all necessary formalities are processed with the local authorities while physical suppliers are kept updated with the latest vessel arrival times.

Whether a vessel is calling inside port or lifting bunkers at anchorage, the agency assists with the consolidation of ancillary services such as bunker surveyors, offshore boats, crew changes, provisions of supplies, lubricants, fresh water, and a whole host of other requirements. Our own warehousing facilities allow our team to support clients who need spares to be delivered in advance.
