Hambantota International Port Expands Bunkering Services with HSFO Integration

Hambantota International Port (HIP) has reached a significant milestone by successfully integrating High Sulphur Fuel Oil (HSFO) into its range of bunkering services as of January 2025. Now offering a full suite of marine fuels—including Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) and Marine Gas Oil (MGO/MDO)—this expansion strengthens Sri Lanka’s position in the global maritime industry, catering to a wider range of vessels navigating one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes.

“We are pleased to announce the full operational launch of our HSFO bunkering facility, marking a major step towards our vision of becoming a leading global maritime hub,” said Wilson Qu, CEO of Hambantota International Port Group (HIPG). “With our expanding services and reputation for operational excellence, HIP is positioning itself as a crucial player in maritime trade and fuel supply. This development not only broadens our service portfolio but also reinforces Sri Lanka’s role as a key maritime hub in the Indian Ocean region.”
