No tankers crossed Hormuz on 3 March: JMIC
No tankers crossed Hormuz on 3 March: JMIC
New York, 4 March (Argus) — There was no tanker traffic through the strait of Hormuz on 3 March, the fourth day of fighting between the US, Israel and Iran, due to threats of attacks from Iran and satellite jamming, according to global maritime security partnership Joint Maritime Information Center (JMIC). That total on Tuesday compares to 50 tankers on 28 February, the first day of fighting, and three tankers each on 1 and 2 March, according to the JMIC in a notice shared by the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations. Cargo ship traffic dropped to only a single vessel on 3 March from 98 on 28 February, 18 on 1 March and seven on 2 March. The historical daily average for all vessels through the strait is about 138 ships, JMIC said. The notice, which was published by JMIC at about 12:27pm ET on 4 March, included four vessels in a list of confirmed vessel incidents from the "approximately past 24 hours". The containership Safeen Prestige was the only vessel with damage the JMIC did not describe as "minimal" and the only vessel that was located within the strait of Hormuz at the time of its incident. The Gold Oak dry bulker, anchored near Fujairah, sustained minimal damage. The tanker Libra Trade r also sustained minimal damage 10 nautical miles off the coast of UAE. "US and Israeli-affiliated or flagged vessels are advised to minimize time spent pier-side or at anchor within high-risk zones to reduce vulnerability of targeting," JMIC said. "Maintaining movement and avoiding predictable patterns remains critical for mitigating the risk of targeting strikes or collateral damage." Vessel tracking data and navigational tools within the region will likely become increasingly unreliable in the days to come with significant Global Navigation Satellite System jamming underway throughout the strait of Hormuz, Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Gulf, according to JMIC. "Observed impacts include positional offsets, Automatic Identification System anomalies and intermittent signal degradation," JMIC said.

Dutch B100 flips to discount against MGO
Dutch B100 flips to discount against MGO
London, 4 March (Argus) — B100 advanced fatty acid methyl ester (Fame) dob Netherlands has this week flipped to a discount to marine gasoil (MGO) dob ARA when accounting for EU emissions trading system (ETS) costs. The discount means that it is now cheaper to sail on B100 than MGO, marking a sharp turn in fundamentals for the marine biodiesel product. With FuelEU Maritime requirements also in place, requiring a 2pc reduction in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions this year, shipowners may look to bunker some of those needed volumes if logistically viable. Most participants reported higher interest for the product and an increase in enquiries, but demand has not spiked yet. This could be because buyers are generally holding off unnecessary bunker fuel purchases, awaiting more stable prices. Price volatility in underlying crude and gasoil markets has capped bunker fuel trade and purchasing has been limited to buyers seeking urgent refuelling or booking volumes for the second half of March in the past two days. The typical differential of around $10-20/t between Rotterdam and Antwerp very-low sulphur fuel oil (VLSFO) and MGO that has emerged since January to reflect RED III requirements in the Netherlands also disappeared on 3 March, with the sudden price surge diluting those premiums and suppliers holding on to limited volumes likely to have more control over offer levels. The spread turned negative for the first time since the B100 price launched on 22 January, and marks the first time a B100 Argus assessment was at an ETS-inclusive discount to MGO since November 2024. The spread was at a discount of $73.16/t on 2 March, before widening to $150.72/t on 3 March. B100 Advanced Fame dob Netherlands was assessed at $1,075/t on 3 March, down by $45/t from a week prior — tracking declines in the wholesale Advanced Fame fob market. Unmet offers were sharply lower on the Argus Open Markets (AOM) session on 2 March, counterbalancing a sharp increase in gasoil futures — the front-month Ice gasoil futures contract 16:30 GMT marker rose by $122.50/t on 3 March, having posted $133.75/t gains in the previous session, reaching its highest since 2022. MGO dob ARA, on the other hand, stood at $927/t on 3 March, up by $243/t since the end of last week, and its highest since 2023. MGO prices in Rotterdam and Antwerp have spiked since the start of this week, reflecting the surge in Brent crude and gasoil prices following the outbreak of the US-Iran war . Rotterdam MGO was pegged at $957.50/t dob on 3 March, up by $242.25/t in from 27 February, while Antwerp MGO was at $967.50/t dob, up by $254.50/t over the same period.

EBRD aims for €150bn in ‘green finance’ by 2030
EBRD aims for €150bn in ‘green finance’ by 2030
London, 4 March (Argus) — The European Bank of Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) has approved a strategy for 2026-30, with a target of "at least" €150bn ($174.5bn) in cumulative "green financing" in 2026-30, including its own finance and mobilised private investments. This level is "a floor it will seek to exceed", the EBRD said. The bank will dedicate "at least 50pc of [its] total annual business volume to the green space" — a goal it also met in 2025 — it said. It also plans to ramp up projects with a "climate resilience component" and investigate nature-positive investments, it said. The EBRD has invested more than €75bn in "green projects" since 2006, it said. "We are responding to our clients' demands to support their green transition", EBRD president Odile Renaud-Basso said. The bank set out plans for six sectors — energy, industry, agrifood, transport and urban and financial systems. It aims to treble the renewable energy capacity that it finances or facilities in 2023-30, compared to in 2010-22. This would add a further 35GW of renewable energy capacity in 2023-30, it said. The EBRD also plans to increase the adoption of transition plans by the banks it finances, with a goal of trebling coverage by 2030 — equalling more than 60pc of its client banks with a transition plan, up from around 20pc in 2025. EBRD regions' "green-related financial needs are projected to rise to more than €500bn in 2030, five times the current level", the bank said. A study from the Independent High-Level Expert Group on Climate Finance in 2024 put the annual investment required to hit climate and nature goals at $6.5 trillion by 2030, mostly for developing countries. Several key donors of international development aid have scaled back or announced cuts to funding in the last 18 months, which is likely to affect projects tackling climate change in developing nations. Governments and campaigners have shifted their focus to multilateral development banks (MDBs) — such as the EBRD — and the private sector, in lieu of public funding. The EBRD invests or manages a portfolio in 43 countries across Europe, Africa and Asia. The bank is owned by 77 countries, the EU and the EU's European Investment Bank — a fellow MDB.

Shipping companies urge IMO to adopt NZF
Shipping companies urge IMO to adopt NZF
Singapore, 4 March (Argus) — A group of shipping, energy and technology companies has called on International Maritime Organization (IMO) members to adopt the UN agency's net-zero Framework (NZF) this year, urging governments to move forward with the sector's decarbonisation agenda. Nearly 90 companies signed an open letter on 4 March expressing support for implementing the NZF, describing it as "a hard-fought compromise that can provide a clear and credible pathway for the decarbonisation of international shipping" and one that has gained broad industry backing. The letter highlighted the IMO's "tireless" efforts in developing the framework in collaboration with governments, the private sector and civil society. The NZF incorporates several key initiatives, including the IMO's revised greenhouse-gas (GHG) strategy, lifecycle assessment (LCA) guidelines and a potential carbon-pricing mechanism aimed at addressing key barriers to shipping decarbonisation. Signatories also stressed the importance of a global regulatory framework, noting that fragmented policies risk slowing the adoption of alternative fuels and technologies. "Global regulation for the sector creates a shared system that covers emissions from all international shipping: one set of rules that brings clarity for the industry and a stronger signal to invest in new fuels and technologies," the letter said. The appeal follows the postponement of the NZF decision during the IMO's Extraordinary Session in October, after opposition from several member states. The delay has weighed on the marine industry sector that has already begun investing in alternative-fuel vessels, bunkering infrastructure and emerging supply chains to support decarbonisation. The group warned that swift action is needed to sustain momentum in the sector's energy transition. "Action now will create the market for these new vessels and technologies, accompanied by new jobs and economic growth, enabling shipping's full transition and the achievement of the IMO's strategy to deliver net zero shipping by or around 2050." The call echoes the efforts by hydrogen-based fuels (e-fuels) producers when they called on the IMO 's Marine Environment Protection Committee (MEPC) to include steps towards the adoption of e-fuels such as ammonia and e-methanol in the NZF. The companies cited then that e-fuels offer higher emissions reductions and project developers need regulatory certainty to move projects forward. The signatories of today's open letter span the maritime value chain, including shipowners, fuel technology providers, energy producers and logistics stakeholders. Companies backing the call include Singaporean container shipping group X-Press Feeders , German engine manufacturer Everllence, Australian firm CWP Global, Spanish energy firm Moeve, Australian metals producer Fortescue, Netherlands-based shipowner Future Proof Shipping and ship vetting firm RightShip, among others.
