HONG KONG – July 11, 2025 – Chimbusco Pan Nation (CPN), a leading conventional marine fuel and marine biofuel physical supplier in Hong Kong, today announced a significant milestone in sustainable marine fuel supply. The company has successfully completed the first-ever delivery of a B30-Marine Gasoil (B30-MGO) blend in Hong Kong, supplied to Orient Overseas Container Line (OOCL). This historic operation, involving a blend of 30% biodiesel and 70% Marine Gasoil (MGO), marks OOCL’s inaugural receipt of this high-blend biofuel in the region, signaling a pivotal step towards reducing carbon emissions in maritime operations.

Bolstering Green Fuel Leadership in East Asia

The delivery, completed on July 11, 2025, reinforces CPN’s position at the forefront of green fuel solutions in East Asia. CPN stands as the first bunker supplier in the region with the capability to provide all grades of ISCC-EU Certified marine biofuel, encompassing both marine fuel and gas oil blends. This certification underscores the company’s commitment to supporting the maritime industry’s transition to sustainable energy sources, ensuring that the biofuel meets stringent European Union sustainability and greenhouse gas emission reduction criteria.

Record-Breaking Biofuel Volumes in H1 2025 Underscore CPN’s Commitment

This latest achievement follows closely on the heels of CPN’s impressive performance in the first half of 2025. As reported on July 7, CPN’s marine biofuel deliveries between January and June have already exceeded its total volume for all of 2024, surpassing 78,000 metric tonnes (MT).

This represents a remarkable 80% year-on-year increase, underscoring CPN’s aggressive strategic push toward decarbonisation and its proven capacity to scale advanced biofuel adoption across Asia’s shipping industry.

The company continues to embody its ethos of “making the impossible possible” through sustained growth and innovation in the sustainable bunkering segment.

Dual-Grade Delivery Showcases Operational Prowess

Further demonstrating its exceptional capability and efficiency, CPN executed a simultaneous delivery of B30-High Sulphur Marine Fuel Oil (B30-HSFO) during this operation. This dual-grade bunkering highlights the company’s technical expertise and its ability to meet complex and diverse bunkering demands, thereby strengthening its leadership position in the dynamic marine fuel supply industry.

Paving the Way for a Greener Global Shipping Future

CPN remains steadfast in its dedication to driving innovation and sustainability within the marine fuel supply chain. The successful B30-MGO delivery is a testament to this commitment, paving the way for wider adoption of lower-emission fuels in global shipping. Such initiatives are critical for shipowners aiming to comply with evolving environmental regulations, including the IMO‘s Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII) and the EU Emissions Trading System ( EU ETS) for maritime, without necessitating extensive vessel modifications.
