When Volatility Rises, Timing Matters More

Recent increases in volatility across Brent and bunker prices have made purchasing decisions more time-sensitive.

As price movements become larger, the cost difference between different purchasing dates also increases. Based on our analysis, potential savings have risen from approximately USD 8-10/mt to as much as USD 15-20/mt.

In calmer markets, small differences in timing may have limited impact. In today’s market, they can have a significant effect on total bunker costs.

Imarex Technology helps bunker buyers assess market conditions and identify more favourable purchasing opportunities in a fast moving and uncertain market.
