Premium bunkering shuts down

The firm has been closed now that its founder and managing director, Panayotis Bachtis, has taken up a new job running ZeroNorth’s Piraeus office, a representative told Ship & Bunker on Tuesday.

Bachtis founded the firm in 2015 with several former OW Bunker staff from Greece and elsewhere in the Mediterranean.

  • The Greek bunker market took a sharp hit in 2020 with a significant reduction in bunker volumes from cruise and passenger vessels.
  • This demand is unlikely to return until lockdown measures stymieing the tourism industry across Europe are eased.
