CPC Bunker Barge Resumes Operations in Keelung After Repairs
Monday September 7, 2026
Taiwan’s CPC Corporation bunker barge Chung Yu No 18 has resumed operations at Keelung Port in Taiwan after completing repairs and testing.
The barge had been temporarily taken out of service due to equipment failure, the company said in an emailed notification on Monday.
CPC said it has now resumed normal operations with immediate effect.
With Chung Yu No 18 back in service, temporary support provided by the New Taiwan Fuel bunker barge has ended, and bunkering operations at Keelung Port will continue with Chung Yu No 18.
CPC added that another bunker barge Chung Yu No 19 is undergoing a major overhaul and is expected to resume operations in February 2027.
