<p data-block-id="ee750a2e-e91b-4a58-971c-4b9ec99a5fc5" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">The Bunker Fuel Market faces new environmental rules. These rules aim to reduce sulfur emissions and greenhouse gases. The IMO 2020 sulfur cap has cut sulfur content, changing the market dynamics. As a result, demand for low sulfur fuel, like very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) and marine gas oil (MGO), has risen.</p>
<p data-block-id="4cd65beb-9883-49d7-a233-5cf4f53a92f3">Stricter greenhouse gas rules are on the way. This pushes the industry toward alternative fuels such as liquid natural gas (LNG), methanol, and ammonia. These regulations require shipowners and fuel suppliers to invest in new technologies and infrastructure.</p>
<p data-block-id="ddd0d750-e81a-4959-b731-df7a4f635b16">The move to cleaner fuel isn’t just about following rules. It signals a major change in the market, impacting fuel pricing, supply chains, and investment choices.</p>

</ul>
<p data-block-id="66c0ab0c-ecac-4250-bdf9-03bd04444524">Technological progress is reshaping the bunker fuel market. Changes in engine design, fuel efficiency, and alternative fuel production affect supply and demand. Dual-fuel engines allow ships to use both traditional and alternative fuels. This shift helps owners adopt cleaner energy sources. Advancements in carbon capture and storage also aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from traditional fuels.</p>
<p data-block-id="2d42991d-6a97-4cf4-a37a-9104736926e5">Digitization and data analysis are changing the market too. They improve fuel management, boost vessel performance, and enhance supply chain efficiency. These tech changes lower the shipping industry's environmental impact. They also create new opportunities for fuel suppliers and tech providers, driving growth and innovation.</p>
