871

According to an article published in Ship and Bunker News, around 12 percent global fleet by tonnage is still capable of burning high sulfur fuel oil.

What is it?

  • This has been made possible because of scrubber installations, according to estimates from shipping intelligence service Clarksons Research.
  • That number will rise to a forecasted 19% by the end of 2020, a spokesman for the company told Ship & Bunker Wednesday.
  • Among the very large crude carrier and Capesize fleets the number is currently 20%,
    according to Clarksons Research.
