KPI OceanConnect reports higher earnings on strong marine fuel demand

KPI OceanConnect has reported higher revenue and earnings for the 2025/26 financial year, supported by business expansion, the integration of Baseblue and growing demand for marine fuel and decarbonisation services.

During the year, the company supplied 13 million metric tonnes of marine fuel, while revenue increased to US$6.2 billion. Earnings before tax (EBT) rose 21% year-on-year to US$10.9 million.

A key milestone during the period was the integration of marine fuel supplier Baseblue, completed in January 2026. KPI OceanConnect said the transaction has strengthened its global presence and enhanced customer service capabilities.

“By integrating Baseblue, investing in our people and expanding both our advisory and digital capabilities, we have further enhanced our ability to help customers navigate market volatility, regulatory change and the practical realities of the energy transition,” said Dorthe Bendtsen, Chief Executive Officer of KPI OceanConnect.

The company also expanded its Alternative Fuels & Carbon Markets business, supporting customers with biofuels, LNG, methanol, FuelEU Maritime compliance and carbon trading. During the year, KPI OceanConnect traded more than two million EU Allowances (EUAs) and assisted around 250 shipowners and operators with emissions compliance strategies.

“The industry is operating in a period where energy, regulatory and geopolitical risks are increasingly interconnected,” Bendtsen said. “Our role is to help customers navigate these complexities by providing market insight, compliance expertise and access to a broad range of fuel and risk management solutions.”

KPI OceanConnect added that it continues to leverage the Bunker Holding Group’s global supply network, providing access to biofuel solutions in more than 250 ports worldwide.
