Anchorage bunker prices
USANC · US · Major bunkering hub
Arithmetic on the 6 nearest ports where a price was observed, weighted by distance. Nobody has quoted this at Anchorage, and it carries nothing about the barge, the volume or your credit — which is what actually sets the number.
Why there is no assessment here yet
Only 0 observations in the last 72 hours. We publish an assessment from 3 or more.
No price is published for this port yet. Our assessment is built only from what we observe here — prices suppliers submit to us, quotes received against requests raised here, and stems that close — so it appears once this port has traffic. A request raised now still reaches suppliers; it does not wait for an index.
Our own assessment, computed from observations made on this platform: prices submitted by suppliers, quotes received against requests raised here, and stems that closed. Weighted by how firm each observation is (a closed stem counts three times a list price), by how recent it is, and by parcel size. Values more than 15% from the median are excluded. No third-party assessment is used as an input, and no number is published from fewer than three observations or fewer than two independent sources.

Taking fuel at Anchorage
Operational notes, from the port authority and the suppliers’ own published documents. Checked 2026-09-02.
Bunkers in Anchorage, Alaska are supplied by Clipper Oil, which offers marine fuels (MGO, VLSFO), other fuels (ULSD, Jet A-1, kerosene, etc.) and lubricant oils (Chevron, Mobil, Shell). Delivery methods available are barge, pipeline, and truck. The Port of Anchorage is a critical gateway connecting Alaska to global maritime trade routes, and Clipper Oil reports extensive experience with the port's berthing and logistics requirements during bunkering, with deliveries made to vessels sailing to the Mainland USA, Asia, and the Pacific Rim. Anchorage is NOT within a North American ECA, so standard IMO global 0.5% sulphur limits apply rather than 0.1% ECA fuel requirements. Specific notice periods, designated bunkering areas, night-delivery restrictions, and port-authority bunkering regulations could not be confirmed from public sources and should be verified with the Port of Alaska and the supplier when nominating.
- notice/nomination period required
- bunkering at berth vs anchorage specifics
- night delivery allowed?
- weather limits
- port authority bunkering regulations
- typical stem time
Ask the supplier to confirm these before you fix a stem on them.
The working behind the estimate above.
Those are prices at those ports, not at Anchorage, and the distances are great-circle rather than routed. The estimate above is arithmetic on them — it carries no information about the barge, the volume or your credit, which is what actually sets the number. A request is the only way to get a real one.
Indicative only. Typical stem time here is about 8 hours alongside.

Not an offer to sell — a firm price exists only once a supplier has quoted.
A lower headline price at another port is not automatically a saving. Deviation burns fuel and charter hire, and a bunker-only call costs port time.
