This fully revised edition of the best-selling An Introduction to Bunkering reflects the important recent changes to bunker regulations, legislation, terminology and standards – including the newly published ISO 8217:2012 marine fuels standard.

The information in this new English edition is just as relevant to vessel charterers, ship operators, marine lawyers and port agents as it is to buyers and sellers of marine fuel.

It is an entry level guide to bunkering, covering all aspects of the marine fuels industry in a simple, easy-to-read style, with many explanatory diagrams and high quality photographs.
CMA
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!
