Rijeka bunker prices
HRRJK · HR · Major bunkering hub · Emission Control Area · EU ETS and FuelEU Maritime apply
Arithmetic on the 6 nearest ports where a price was observed, weighted by distance. Nobody has quoted this at Rijeka, 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 Rijeka
Operational notes, from the port authority and the suppliers’ own published documents. Checked 2026-08-31.
At Rijeka fuel goes aboard under the Port of Rijeka Authority's port ordinance (in force since June 2023): a stem may be delivered by ship, by barge or by road vehicle, but only at places the Port Authority designates and with the Harbour Master's consent. Truck supply is allowed at every operating berth except the four passenger-port piers (Istria, Adamic, Karoline Rijecke and Riva Boduli), and fuel supply is not permitted at all in the Omisalj oil-terminal basin.
Give notice: the master must obtain Port Authority approval and lodge a Declaration on Hazardous or Polluting Substances at least 24 hours before starting, or one hour for ships in line traffic. Bunkering at Rijeka itself may run day or night. The anchorage grounds are split by ship type, tankers to anchorage E and gas and chemical carriers to F, with the eastern and western grounds for general cargo. The port is inside the Mediterranean SOx ECA, so a 0.10% sulphur cap has applied since 1 May 2025; INA, the local refiner, lists distillate grades and RME 180 / RMG 380 residuals.
- The port ordinance sets the bunkering procedure but does not publish a maximum stem size, which must be taken up with the supplier or concession holder.
- INA's marine-fuel page lists its grades but does not state their exact sulphur content or the delivery method (barge versus truck) at Rijeka.
- The ordinance's day-and-night bunkering allowance and the separate daylight-only restriction belong to specific basins (daylight-only is stated for the Port of Brsica, not Rijeka); the pages consulted give no per-berth bunkering hours for Rijeka itself.
- Permissible draughts at Rijeka's berths and anchorages could not be obtained; the Port Authority berths-and-anchorages page failed to load (HTTP 520).
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 Rijeka, 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.
Rijeka bunkering FAQ
- What is the bunker price at Rijeka today?
- No price is published at Rijeka. The closest port where one is, is Livorno, about 205 nautical miles away — VLSFO at $549 a tonne.
- Is Rijeka 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 Rijeka?
- Rijeka is in the EU/EEA, so voyages to, from and within it fall under the EU Emissions Trading System, and FuelEU Maritime applies to ships of 5,000 GT and above. That adds a real per-tonne cost that a headline bunker price does not show.
