Bunker Purchasing in Liner Shipping

Plum, Christian E. M. / Pisinger, David / Jensen, Peter N.

The cost for bunker fuel represents a major part of the daily running costs of liner shipping vessels. The vessels, sailing on a fixed roundtrip of ports, can lift bunker at these ports, but prices in each port may be differing and fluctuating. The stock of bunker on a vessel is subject to a number of operational constraints such as capacity limits, reserve requirements and sulphur content. Contracts are often used for bunker purchasing, ensuring supply and often giving a discounted price. A contract can supply any vessel in a period and port, and is thus a shared resource between vessels, which must be distributed optimally to reduce overall costs. An overview of formulations and solution methods is given, and computational results are reported for some representative models.
