Bunkering is proceeding smoothly in Mozambique as the recent bouts of civil unrest have been limited to urban areas, a local supplier said.

It is highly unlikely that Mozambique's Nacala and Maputo ports will experience any bunkering delays, the local supplier added. 

The country has been facing civil unrest following the announcement of its national election results in October.

Demand remains stable in Mozambique’s Nacala, with good bunker availability across all three grades. Similarly, Maputo is also experiencing stable demand and has good availability of both VLSFO and LSMGO.
