World Fuel Services bunkers waste-based marine fuel to cruise line in Greece

In Greece, World Fuel Services announced that Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings has carried out one of the first commercial biofuel bunkerings for a cruise vessel in Greece, with Norwegian Viva receiving a waste-based marine fuel blend in Piraeus. Coordinated by World Fuel, in collaboration with Greek supplier EKO, the delivery highlights how international cooperation is enabling the cruise sector to reduce emissions today.

The pioneering bunkering operation represents an extension of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings’ biofuel program across Southern Europe as part of its Sail & Sustain strategy and highlights World Fuel’s ability to connect ship operators with certified sustainable fuels worldwide.
