Shell To Provide Bunkering

Service At Port Of Mobile —Literature Available

Shell Oil Company has an- nounced they will sell bunker fuels at the Port of Mobile, Ala.

Barging arrangements will en- able them also to provide bunk- ers at the neighboring ports of

Pensacola, Fla., Pascagoula and

Gulfport, Miss.

Long-term terminal arrange- ments have been concluded and a blender has been installed to provide a complete line of ma- rine bunker fuels, namely MFO,

TFO and MDF.

Shell's decision to provide serv- ices at Mobile was based on fore- casts of increased port tonnage and augmented by the comple- tion of the Tombigbee Barge Ca- nal in 1984, which will connect the port with the entire Missis- sippi and Ohio River Systems.

Mobile is also strategically rela- tive to Shell's Gulf Coast manu- facturing and distribution facil- ities.
