Bunkers

Portland Port has a bunker provider situated on site that can provide multiple bunker fuel grades for refuelling ships.  Ships can be supplied directly from the terminal or at anchor by dedicated bunker barges.

Portland Bunkers UK Ltd.

From their state of the art fuel storage terminal situated within Portland Port, Portland Bunkers UK Ltd, along with partner Monjasa A/S, store and supply all bunker grades (3.50% HSFO, 0.50% VLSFO and 0.10% MGO in accordance with ISO 8217).

The facility is ideally located just within the western entrance to the Sulphur Emission Control Area (SECA), making it a one-stop-shop for bunkers when entering or leaving the area. 

Bunkers are supplied at the safe and sheltered outer and inner harbour anchorages by Bunker Barge or alongside the Terminal direct (EX-PIPE). PBUK/Monjasa’s professional operational staff provide you with the best service in the industry.
