‘An Introduction to Bunkering is a valuable educational tool for those just starting out in this industry. It is all you ever wanted to know and more about all things bunkers. The graphs, photographs, flow charts and figures help convey the important concepts. Every supplier, broker, trader, agent and buyer should have a copy on their bookshelf. I wish this book was available when I was teaching!’
