The Singapore market has received its first LSFO cargo from Nigeria's new Dangote refinery.
Glencore's chartered tanker the Front Brage was scheduled to deliver 124,000 mt of low-sulfur straight-run fuel oil from Dangote this week, news agency Reuters reported.
The 650,000 b/d Dangote refinery is set to be Africa's largest when it reaches full capacity.
Another cargo, this time of 157,000 mt, is set to arrive in Singapore in July.
Low-sulfur straight-run fuel oil is typically either blended to produce VLSFO or used as refinery feedstock.
Singapore is the world's largest bunkering hub, with a record 51.8 million mt of marine fuel sales in total last year.
