22MAR2019 - NEWS - VARO Energy and GoodFuels extends their partnership to improve availability of bio fuel oil to deep sea vessels leaving from Rotterdam

VARO Energy subsidiary REINPLUS FIWADO Bunker and GoodFuels have recently extended their partnership to improve availability of bio fuel oil (BFO) to deep sea vessels leaving from Rotterdam. The new deep sea proposition, which will help to improve the sustainability of the segment, is based on extending the availability of GoodFuels’ Bio Fuel Oil, which the company launched in Autumn 2018. The new partnership will see VARO help scale the sourcing, production, blending and distribution of GoodFuels Bio Fuel Oil across the ARA region. In the meantime, GoodFuels will continue to focus on the sourcing of sustainable feedstocks for the Bio Fuel Oil, and the sale, marketing and product development of new sustainable fuel solutions. GoodFuels’ BFO is a direct “drop-in” replacement for heavy fuel oil, containing no sulphur and 90% less carbon when compared to traditional fossil-based fuels such as heavy fuel oil. The biofuels are suitable for every type of vessel, without requiring any modifications to engine room equipment. The move extends the steps taken by VARO and GoodFuels last year to form a partnership focused on scaling sustainable marine biofuels for the European inland shipping market.
