The following article regarding bunker fuel availability in the Americas region has been provided by online marine fuel procurement platform ENGINE for post on Singapore bunkering publication Manifold Times:

Bunker demand is strong at the US Gulf port of Houston, where prompt availability of all three conventional grades is tight this week.

Recommended lead times for HSFO and VLSFO run from more than five days to a week. LSMGO can be secured sooner, within 4-7 days, a trader tells ENGINE.

Availability is a little tight at the Galveston Offshore Lightering Area (GOLA), where suppliers are asking for more than five days to cover stems of any of the three grades, a trader said.
