The Aegean lies inside the Mediterranean SOx ECA in force since 1 May 2025, so 0.10% grades apply while sailing; VLSFO remains relevant for tonnage continuing toward the Marmara and Black Sea, which are outside the ECA.

Frequently asked questions
Can I bunker during cargo operations at Aliağa or Nemrut?
Yes — simultaneous bunkering alongside during cargo operations is routine at the Aliağa/Nemrut terminals subject to terminal consent, and barge delivery at anchorage is available for vessels not berthing.
Izmir or Istanbul for a Turkish coast rotation?
Both draw on Turkish refinery supply; Istanbul serves Straits transit traffic while Izmir suits Aegean loaders. Prices are usually close — the deciding factors are your rotation and which ECA legs you still have ahead.
How do I get a firm price?
