Venice bunker prices
ITVCE · IT · 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 Venice, 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 Venice
Operational notes, from the port authority and the suppliers’ own published documents. Checked 2026-09-02.
Bunkering at Venice is carried out by bunker barge (bettolina). Petromar S.r.l. operates a fleet of 14 tankers delivering HS and VLS fuel oil, diesel and lubricants, both to vessels on behalf of oil majors and to shore stations; since 2006 it has used double-hull tankers. San Marco Petroli's Marghera depot supports bunkering via pipeline to barges, handling vessels up to 30,000 tonnes at its jetties on the southern industrial canal. Port-authority tariffs set operational conditions: a three-hour 'call right' covers each delivery, with extra charges of EUR 59/hour thereafter; a barge may idle alongside for a maximum 60 minutes before EUR 118/hour surcharges apply; day services run 06:00-22:00 with surcharges of 50-100% at weekday edges and weekends, night services (22:00-06:00) at five times the call right; holiday requests must be lodged by 16:00 the prior (or preceding Friday) day; cancellations under 24h notice are charged. Venice lies in an ECA, so low-sulphur fuel applies, and EU ETS/FuelEU Maritime compliance applies - Enilive has begun HVO barge deliveries (stems up to 400 t) here since February 2026.

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 Venice, 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.
Venice bunkering FAQ
- What is the bunker price at Venice today?
- No price is published at Venice. The closest port where one is, is Livorno, about 142 nautical miles away — VLSFO at $549 a tonne.
- Is Venice 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 Venice?
- Venice 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.
