Taking fuel at Onne
Operational notes, from the port authority and the suppliers’ own published documents. Checked 2026-09-02.
Bunkers at Onne (Bonny/Port Harcourt Pilotage District, Rivers State) are delivered by barge and vessel: Chibeco Oil and Gas operates from the Federal Ocean Terminal, Onne, supplying AGO and MDO via dumb barges (160,000–1,500,000 litres) and the vessel MT Platform (2,881,148 litres), with tug support. Angstrom Energy also serves Onne/Port Harcourt with ISO 8217-certified VLSFO (0.5% S) and MGO DMA (0.1% S) via barge and ship-to-ship delivery. Pilotage is compulsory for tankers and IMDG-classified vessels; 24-hour pilotage runs from the Fairway Buoy to Bonny, with daytime-only pilotage from Bonny to Onne and Port Harcourt, so plan arrivals and berthing accordingly. ETA must be given 12 hours before arrival (amendments no later than 4 hours prior). Onne berths (e.g. FOT, WACT, FLT) have depths of roughly 7.5–11.0 m, so verify draft limits for loaded bunker barges. Onne is not an ECA, but IMO 2020 applies globally: max 0.5% sulphur unless the vessel has a scrubber. Confirm fuel sulphur certs and BDN documentation with the supplier.

Las Palmas →That is Las Palmas's price, not this port's, and the distance is a great-circle estimate rather than a routed passage. It is here because a benchmark you can see the distance to is more use than a blank space.
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.
