Singapore Launches Grant Call for Phase 2 of Digital Bunkering Trials
What happened
The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore announced a grant call in November 2026 to support trials for the second phase of its digital bunkering initiative. This phase aims to automate the flow of bunkering data from mass flow metering systems to regulators and industry stakeholders, reducing manual data entry and improving data integrity. Electronic bunker delivery notes have been the default documentation for bunker operations in Singapore since April 2025.
