Saint John bunker prices
CASJB · CA · Major bunkering hub · Emission Control Area
Arithmetic on the 6 nearest ports where a price was observed, weighted by distance. Nobody has quoted this at Saint John, 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 Saint John
Operational notes, from the port authority and the suppliers’ own published documents. Checked 2026-09-02.
Saint John is within the North American ECA, so fuels supplied must meet low-sulphur requirements (0.50% sulphur or less outside 200nm limits — verify the exact ECA boundary in force). Irving Oil supplies marine gas oil (RMG 380 and MGO) directly to vessels via barge service in Saint John harbour, whether at anchor or at berth; its state-of-the-art Saint John refinery supports reliable supply via truck, rail and marine vessels, with fast-flowing pipelines in Saint John. Irving Oil operates 24/7. Clipper Oil also offers bunkering in Saint John, including MGO delivered at Courtenay Bay, plus VLSFO and HSFO. The East Saint John Terminal (350 Bayside Dr.) is a marine loading facility, and Canaport (2240 Red Head Rd.) is a deep-water crude terminal with 24/7 operations. Contact Irving Oil at 1.866.865.8800 or IOCCustomerSupport@irvingoil.com; Clipper Oil for competitive bunkering quotes.

The working behind the estimate above.
Those are prices at those ports, not at Saint John, 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.
