The B24 blend comprises 24% bio-component mixed with 76% of very low sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO).

CPN-operated bunker tanker delivered the stem to COSCO's vessel, Xin Los Angeles.

CPN described the delivery as the “largest B24 marine biofuel bunkering operation to date” in the Greater Chinese region. The operation demonstrates its “operational strength” to carry out large-scale biofuel bunkering, it added.
