Why Biofuel Global
Turning Decarbonization Compliance into Profit
Biofuel Global delivers a complete solution for FuelEU Maritime compliance, EU ETS exposure management, and verified biofuel operations. We enable shipowners, charterers, and industry partners to cut compliance costs by up to 100 %, achieve audited emissions reductions, and operate profitably within the green transition.
Our team brings hands-on operational expertise built on 45+ years of worldwide maritime experience. We combine deep seagoing captaincy with decades of port captain services across Singapore, Dubai, West Africa, and Europe.
We are entrepreneurs with a strong business mindset and understand that shipowners, ship managers, and cargo owners must create bottom-line value from the green transition.
Areas
We operate across Europe, with Gibraltar & Algeciras as our primary green-corridor hub for verified biofuel operations.
What we do
Operational, Compliance, and Fuel Solutions for Green Shipping
1. FuelEU & EU ETS Optimization
We help shipowners manage FuelEU Maritime and EU ETS requirements at the lowest possible cost: cut compliance costs up 100 % through pooling and credit optimization; benchmark each bunker operation against FuelEU credit values; manage and forecast EU ETS exposure with live data analytics; and maintain verified emissions documentation and sustainability reporting.
2. Verified Biofuel Operations
We ensure every ton of biofuel contributes to compliance value and performance. We supply certified biofuel blends (B30–B100) through trusted bunker partners; conduct engine and system risk assessments in cooperation with shipowners; supervise and verify bunker operations for efficiency and compliance; and ensure full traceability through sustainability certificates and verification chains.
3. Green Corridors
We coordinate the full chain of low-carbon operations between shipowners, ship managers, cargo owners, and charters. Operating from Gibraltar and Algeciras, we enable verified green charter voyages, ESG-aligned charter parties, real-time emissions tracking and reporting, and credit-trading and pooling strategies for shipowners and charterers. We also train stakeholders in new fuels and all aspects of biofuel bunkering.
4. Future Biofuels from CNSL Waste
Biofuel Global actively develops next-generation biofuels derived from Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL) — a renewable byproduct of the cashew industry. Working with major technology, logistics, and trading partners, we aim to establish scalable CNSL-based fuel production that meets FuelEU and IMO lifecycle GHG criteria while utilizing waste streams for maximum sustainability impact.
