Arkas Bunker completed its first biofuel supply operation to Yang Ming in November using the "Bio24F" product and made a second delivery to the shipowner in December.
“After a long period of meticulous work, we received our ISCC Certification and became the first company in Türkiye to provide the Bio24F supply in marine fuels. Our pace is now quicker,” shared Seçkin Gül, General Manager of Arkas Bunker.
“Today, we are delighted and proud to make the second Bio24F supply to Yang Ming, one of the world’s leading shipowners. This second supply, which is a significant milestone for us, reflects the positive outcomes and satisfaction with the fuel’s performance from the first supply.”
Arkas Bunker started delivering Bio24F during the second quarter of 2024 by completing a supply to Arkas Line’s container vessel Matilde A in May 2024.
“We have noticed that using Bio24F not only helps shipowners reduce their carbon tax obligations under the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), but also significantly cuts CO2 emissions. We have seen the remarkable qualities of our fuel firsthand,” noted Gül.
“While using the biofuel we named Bio24F on Arkas Line vessels, we are also offering it to other shipowners. Together with our experienced colleagues and business partners, we continue to work relentlessly on biofuels. We stand by all our shipowners with special solutions for their vessels to reach cleaner seas in their sustainability journeys.”
