Schoeller-backed bunker platform launches

Fuelink, a maritime technology provider, has launched its new digital platform providing bunker data management and fuel supply optimisation. Fuelink has been developed in conjunction with maritime energy solutions provider, Baseblue and diversified fleet owner, Schoeller Holdings. 

Fuelink enables fuelling strategy forecasting, bunker price comparisons and compliance with the European Union’s Emissions Trading System (EU ETS), including inventory management of EU Allowances (EUAs).

Combining information taken automatically from AIS and noon reports with its AI-based management tool and third-party benchmarking, Fuelink allows the simulation and comparison of both conventional and alternative fuels on different routes.

Commenting on the launch, Konstantin Bronetskyi, general manager of Fuelink, said: “We understand that uncertainty costs money and fragmented information sitting in various systems takes time to manually collate and analyse. This has been the status quo in the global marine fuel supply industry. Now, we have developed the Fuelink platform to bring together real time data, allowing machine learning to simulate fuel cost scenarios, create automated reporting and alerts, measure bunkering performance, and support GHG emissions management.”
