Rotterdam Marine Fuel Prices
Europe's largest port and major bunkering hub. Gateway to European markets with extensive storage and blending facilities.
API-Backed Bunker Prices
Bunker benchmarks update on business days, following the upstream assessment schedule (no weekend or holiday assessments). Each timestamp above is the latest API record for that grade — not a page-render time. A value that looks unchanged usually means the market simply held steady; the timestamp confirms it is current. For the marine gas oil benchmark itself, see the latest MGO 0.5%S price.
Modeled fuel demand (Oxford/NERC, 2024, OGL v3)
Modeled baseline demand in tonnes of heavy-fuel-oil equivalent per year, estimated from 2019 AIS vessel movements for trips of 1,000 km or more, with each trip's fuel assigned to its port of origin. It is a model output, not reported bunker sales and not a price. Large bunkering hubs typically sell more fuel than this model assigns them.
