Sinopec has announced its Guangzhou refinery is now able to produce very low-sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) for the marine bunker fuel market.
A 1,600-tonne cargo was the facility's first batch of VLSFO production - it was delivered to the storage tank at Sinopec Fuel Oil Sales Co via a pipeline.
The firm stated that the marine fuel was mixed with residual oil and diesel.
