Arkas Bunker has successfully carried out another operation contributing to the maritime industry’s sustainable fuel transformation. The biofuel supply delivered to Statu Denizcilik’s vessel Erguvan S stands out as a success, both in terms of operational efficiency and its transformative impact on the sector.
Being the first company in Türkiye to receive the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC EU) for marine fuels, Arkas Bunker continues to support environmentally friendly solutions in the maritime sector.
Pioneering biofuel supply in Türkiye’s maritime sector, Arkas Bunker, following its biofuel supplies to some of the world’s prominent shipowners such as Arkas Line and Yang Ming, has successfully delivered 200 tons of Bio24F to Erguvan S, a vessel in the Statu Denizcilik fleet. After the successful completion of the operation, Captain Naci Mutlu of Urla 1, Arkas Bunker’s marine tanker, presented a special plaque to the captain of the vessel.
Developed by Arkas Bunker, Bio24F is not only an environmentally friendly alternative fuel, but also offers significant advantages to vessel operators in terms of operational safety and engine compatibility.
With Bio24F, which will significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from vessels, it is aimed to make shipowners’ sustainability goals more attainable.
Seckin Gul, General Manager of Arkas Bunker, said the following in his statement on the matter: “Our biofuel journey began with our own vessels and now, we are proud to share it with other shipowners. This supply operation carried out for Statu Denizcilik is of great importance both in terms of expanding our sustainability vision and contributing to our country’s green transformation in the maritime industry.”
Arkas Bunker continues to contribute to the sustainable maritime goals of Türkiye and the world by promoting the use of biofuels. With its experienced technical team and strong infrastructure, the company continues to provide high-standard services both to its own fleet and to third parties.
