August 2025 – In a strategic move that signals a major leap in digital transformation for marine fuels, Ofiniti, the maritime technology company behind the FuelBoss platform, has announced a landmark partnership with Axpo Group, one of Europe’s leading energy producers and traders.
Axpo will integrate FuelBoss into its growing liquefied natural gas (LNG) and ISCC-certified Bio-LNG bunkering operations across the Mediterranean, streamlining processes, eliminating paperwork, and increasing transparency. The move marks a significant shift toward smarter, data-driven fuel delivery in the maritime sector.
Scaling Smarter: FuelBoss Powers Axpo’s LNG Expansion
As a key player in the alternative fuels market, Axpo is rapidly expanding its bunkering operations to support the shipping industry’s decarbonization. With the LNG bunkering vessel Avenir Aspiration already in service and two additional newbuilds on the way, the company is laying the foundation for sustainable growth.
FuelBoss provides the digital infrastructure needed to manage this expansion, offering real-time coordination, audit-ready documentation, and enhanced compliance. For ISCC-certified Bio-LNG in particular, maintaining accurate, traceable records is critical—and FuelBoss delivers exactly that.
Mediterranean Advantage: Speed, Accuracy, and Growth
Daniele Corti, Head of Small Scale LNG at Axpo, commented on the adoption: “Operating in the Mediterranean requires efficiency and reliability. By adopting FuelBoss, we gain both—reducing manual work, improving transparency, and supporting our growth in small-scale LNG. This partnership is a critical step in our strategy to provide innovative, low-carbon solutions to our customers.”
The integration of FuelBoss enables Axpo to digitize every step of its bunkering workflow, aligning operational excellence with its broader environmental goals.
FuelBoss: Enabling the Future of Bunkering
The collaboration between Axpo and Ofiniti is a union of two forward-thinking innovators. Axpo, known for its “virtual liquefaction” model that leverages existing gas infrastructure to deliver Bio-LNG flexibly, is now extending that innovation into its operational backbone.
Martin Christian Wold, VP Business Development at Ofiniti, said, “We are incredibly proud to support Axpo as they bring their LNG trading and operations expertise into the digital age. Their adoption is a testament to the platform’s ability to serve diverse stakeholders—from traders to operators to shipowners—across Europe and beyond. This is a powerful signal for the industry that the future of bunkering is not just about alternative fuels, but also about the intelligent, digital delivery that makes them viable.”
Solving the Industry’s Most Pressing Challenges
The bunkering sector is undergoing rapid transformation—facing regulatory pressure, new fuel types, and rising customer expectations. Yet much of the industry still relies on outdated, manual systems prone to delays, miscommunication, and compliance risk.
FuelBoss addresses these issues with a single, unified digital platform:
- Real-Time Visibility and Smart Scheduling: Enables seamless planning and tracking, reducing idle time and operational bottlenecks.
- Digital Documentation (eBDNs): Replaces paper-based Bunker Delivery Notes with instant, secure, and shareable electronic records.
- Automated Compliance: Ensures alignment with international regulations and standards (e.g. IMO, MPA), minimizing risk of fines and audit failures.
- Integrated Communication: Keeps all stakeholders—onshore and onboard—aligned through a central communication hub.
As the maritime world accelerates toward low-carbon shipping, the Axpo–Ofiniti partnership highlights the critical role digital platforms will play in enabling that future. From ensuring compliance to boosting operational performance, FuelBoss is helping reshape how LNG and Bio-LNG are delivered—faster, cleaner, and smarter.
