TotalEnergies Marine Fuels has completed the first delivery of a B100 biofuel bunker in Singapore.

Last week, 700 metric tons of used cooking oil methyl ester (UCOME)-based biofuel were transferred from the MAPLE, an IMO Type II chemical bunker tanker, to the Glovis Cosmos, a Pure Car and Truck Carrier (PCTC). The UCOME biodiesel, produced from waste cooking oil in Southeast Asia, is certified under the International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC) system.

This is the first time TotalEnergies has supplied a 100% biofuel bunker. Previously, the company blended UCOME-based biofuel with VLSFO at up to 30%. Using B100 biofuel has the potential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80-90% compared to traditional marine fuels on a well-to-wake basis.
