Rough winds and high swells have suspended all bunkering operations in the Spanish port of Huelva, port agent MH Bland said.

Winds of more than 25 knots, with gusts of up to 50 knots, and swells of 2-5 metres are forecast to hit the port on and off between 9-12 November.

Bunker operations are expected to resume around 14 November, once the weather improves, according to the port agent.

Only one barge delivers fuel in the port, so rescheduled deliveries could cause supply delays, the port agent told ENGINE.
