Arithmetic on the 6 nearest ports where a price was observed, weighted by distance. Nobody has quoted this at Terneuzen, 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 Terneuzen
Operational notes, from the port authority and the suppliers’ own published documents. Checked 2026-09-02.
Bunkering in Terneuzen (North Sea Port) is available by barge and truck; pilotage is compulsory and tug assistance is standard, with bunkering services confirmed at the port. Regular fuels can be bunkered at virtually any berth in Vlissingen, Terneuzen or Ghent unless port regulations or the Port Operations Coordination Centre decide otherwise; alternative fuels (LNG, methanol, ammonia, hydrogen) are restricted to dedicated zones shown on the port's bunker map, and a bunkering permit must be applied for via the port authority's form. Lubmarine (TotalEnergies) supplies Terneuzen with a working-day notice of 4 days; bulk deliveries require a minimum of 7,000 litres per order (minimum 2,000 litres per main grade), and deliveries at shorter notice or outside standard requirements are subject to inquiry and extra charges. Terneuzen lies inside the North Sea SECA/ECA: marine fuels must meet MARPOL Annex VI sulphur limits (max 0.50% sulphur outside, 0.10% for fuels used in ECA operation per EU rules), with EU ETS fuel-emission costs applying to calls in the EU. Dutch law requires a correct Bunker Delivery Note, MARPOL-compliant sampling at the receiving vessel's inlet, SDS provision before delivery, and a countersigned Letter of Protest to the ILT if the supply deviates.

The working behind the estimate above.
Those are prices at those ports, not at Terneuzen, 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.
Terneuzen bunkering FAQ
- What is the bunker price at Terneuzen today?
- No price is published at Terneuzen. The closest port where one is, is Antwerp, about 25 nautical miles away — VLSFO at $663 a tonne.
- Is Terneuzen 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 Terneuzen?
- Terneuzen 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.
