The licences will expire on 31 August 2025.

The port authority has not revealed the reason for its decision but has emphasised that all bunker licensees must “comply strictly with all the terms and conditions of the respective bunker licence(s).”

“MPA will not hesitate to take firm action against any licensee that contravenes any of its bunker licence terms and conditions,” it further warned.

As of 18 June, there were 39 licensed bunker suppliers in Singapore, including Sirius Marine, according to MPA data.
