D-Day sanctions further curb supplies in an already tight Asian bunker market
- Newly announced sanctions by the US Treasury have led to tighter supplies in Asia, sources say
- This exacerbates the shortage brought on by the double whammy of the conflict in Hormuz and the ban on Russian bunker exports
- Suspension of bunkering services in Zhoushan on the back of a typhoon has limited bunkering options in the east, with ships diverting to South Korean ports
Millions of dollars worth of deals have been erased with the D-Day sanctions
