Bunker Fuel Prices API
OilPriceAPI gives maritime teams a bunker fuel prices entry point for HFO, VLSFO, and MGO workflows, with internal links to marine fuel pages, documentation, and signup.
Dataset overview
Bunker fuel pricing depends on port, grade, sulfur content, delivery context and source. Compare HFO, VLSFO and MGO only after confirming their specifications and assessment basis.
For procurement and shipping software, the key is not only the latest value. Teams need to store port, grade, unit, timestamp, source, and any package-specific coverage limits so a dashboard does not overstate availability.
API paths to evaluate
GET /v1/bunker-fuels/allBunker fuel snapshot across supported ports and grades, subject to package coverage.
GET /v1/bunker-fuels/ports/SIN?grade=VLSFOPort and grade-specific bunker fuel value for a supported port code.
What teams get
Port-grade focus
Frames bunker pricing around port and fuel grade instead of a single global price.
Marine fuel coverage
Links into HFO, VLSFO, MGO, marine fuels, and maritime bunker solution pages.
Source timestamps
Encourages using returned timestamps and metadata before driving procurement decisions.
Procurement workflow fit
Useful for voyage planning, bunker procurement, fuel surcharge models, and market monitoring.
API examples
Shows endpoint paths for all-port and port-specific bunker fuel requests.
Clear coverage caveat
Avoids overclaiming by noting that port and grade coverage varies by source and package.
Common use cases
Choose the data your dashboard, model, or report needs. Check the available benchmarks, update frequency, and access included in your plan before connecting your application.
Bunker procurement
Compare port-grade values and feed procurement dashboards for supported ports.
Voyage economics
Estimate fuel cost exposure by connecting bunker fuel data with route and port assumptions.
Marine fuel analytics
Track VLSFO, HFO, and MGO trends across maritime pages and API endpoints.

Frequently asked questions
Does OilPriceAPI provide bunker fuel prices by port?
OilPriceAPI supports bunker fuel endpoints for supported ports and grades. Coverage depends on port, fuel grade, source, and package, so teams should confirm the exact fields they need before production use.
Which bunker fuel grades should I track?
Common workflows track VLSFO, HFO or HSFO, and MGO. The correct grade depends on vessel, route, emissions requirements, and procurement policy.
Is this page different from the marine fuel guide?
Yes. The bunker fuel guide and marine fuel references provide additional grade and port context.
Can I use bunker fuel data in a shipping dashboard?
Yes. Use the API paths to fetch supported port-grade values, then store source, timestamp, unit, port, and grade alongside the price.
