CPC suspends Keelung VLSFO nominations

State-owned bunker supplier CPC Corporation (CPC) has temporarily suspended the acceptance of new VLSFO nominations for deliveries at Taiwan’s Keelung port due to “urgent maintenance works on… storage tank and pipeline system.”

No new VLSFO nominations will be accepted for deliveries scheduled on or before 14 June, according to CPC.

The suspension does not affect LSMGO supply at Keelung, which continues as normal.

Elsewhere in Taiwan, bunker supply conditions remain stable at the key ports of Hualien, Taichung and Kaohsiung. Recommended lead times for both VLSFO and LSMGO at these ports remain around two days, broadly unchanged from the previous week.
