Explore our initiatives for Agile Pricing and Financing

Fixed Forward Pricing (FFP)

An FFP is a fixed price for bunker fuel to be delivered in the future. It includes hedging as a risk management strategy, which helps balance out market volatility and mitigates the risk of unpleasant financial surprises 

Fixed Price Agreement (FPA)

An FPA is a contract that allows you to set and manage your exact fuel costs, regardless of how the oil market will develop. By locking in a set price for your fuel supply, an FPA can help your business plan ahead and maintain predictable expenses, making it an exceptionally effective cost-control solution.  

Tailored price setting

Port optionality

Our port optionality solution provides you with a high degree of flexibility, allowing you to include a selection of possible bunkering ports in your fixture. That way, you get to fix your bunkers without knowing your exact port of destination. You will only have to decide where your bunkering should take place when getting closer to the actual delivery date. 

Bunker On Redelivery (BOR)

Our BOR solution offers you the opportunity to eliminate a bunker pricing mismatch on redelivery of a vessel. For operational reasons bunkers are typically stemmed prior to settling the redelivery, creating market exposure. This tool allows us to price the bunkers after delivery, matching the required pricing date.
