Chevron will produce the biofuel, which will be certified by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC) system, meaning it will meet certain sustainability specifications like not being food crop-based.

Bunker One has been offering waste- and residue-based B30 biofuel-oil blends to ships off Skaw and in Gothenburg since May 2021.

Last year, Bunker One's parent company, Bunker Holding, and Chevron Renewable Energy Group entered a partnership to develop a biofuel supply network in North American and European markets. They said they would trial B20 and B30 blends for supply in high-traffic shipping areas.

Chevron has delivered biofuel blends to ships in Singapore since early 2022. It offers used cooking oil methyl ester (UCOME)-based blends from B5 to B25 (Singapore’s upper limit), but can logistically supply up to B100, too.
