How to save as much as $1.00 a ton on your bunkering bill. Bunker by barge. From Refineria Panama. It works out this way: Say you have a 1 5,000 DWT vessel bunkering 600 tons (4,000 barrels). By bunkering by barge you'll generally save as much as $300 in port charges alone. Then there's the time saving fac-tor. Which usually amounts to another $300. When this operational saving is ex-pressed in terms of fuel costs (bunker-ing 600 tons?saving $600), bunkering It adds up. by barge equals a savings of a dollar a ton. This is probably the big reason Re-fineria has become one of Panama's major fuel suppliers since 1962. So, if you're interested in saving money, bunker by barge. From Refin-eria Panama.
