Mundra bunker prices
INMUN · IN · Major bunkering hub
Arithmetic on the 6 nearest ports where a price was observed, weighted by distance. Nobody has quoted this at Mundra, 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 Mundra
Operational notes, from the port authority and the suppliers’ own published documents. Checked 2026-08-31.
Mundra is Adani's private deep-water port in the Gulf of Kutch, and bunkering is one of the services the port formally lists among its permitted operations. The physical supplier's own description puts the emphasis on pipeline delivery at the jetty here, quoting a pumping rate up to 350 MT per hour through 12- and 16-inch lines, while its barge fleet is described as serving the other Gulf ports (Kandla, Sikka, Vadinar, Jamnagar) rather than Mundra. Grades are VLSFO (max 0.5%), HSFO (max 3.5%) and MGO (max 0.1%) to ISO 8217.
Plan around the water. The port's own booklet warns the tidal current runs 2 to 3 knots and the range is large, so moorings must be tended and vessels are to berth with positive trim and no more than one degree of list. Minimum under-keel clearance is 10% of maximum draft on berthing, and the port circulates a maximum acceptable draft for each berth monthly. Port Control works VHF channel 77.
- Neither the port booklet nor the supplier page publishes a maximum bunker stem size.
- The booklet permits bunkering but does not state whether bunkers may be taken at anchorage; it lists only 'store supply' as allowed at berth and anchorage.
- No minimum notice period for a bunker nomination is stated.
- The supplier page does not confirm barge-to-ship bunkering at Mundra itself, attributing barge supply to other Gujarat ports.
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 Mundra, 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.
Mundra bunkering FAQ
- What is the bunker price at Mundra today?
- No price is published at Mundra. The closest port where one is, is Sikka, about 26 nautical miles away — VLSFO at $948 a tonne.
- Is Mundra a cheap bunkering port?
- Whether a port is cheap for your vessel depends on the deviation cost, not just the headline price — reaching a cheaper port costs charter hire and fuel.
- Does EU ETS apply at Mundra?
- Mundra is outside the EU/EEA, so EU ETS does not apply to a call here in itself. It may still apply to the voyage legs if your vessel is heading to or from an EU port.
