How this service works
Strait of Hormuz bunker & marine-fuel feed: current VLSFO, IFO380, and MGO prices ($/tonne) for Fujairah (the world's #2-3 bunkering hub, just outside the strait and the physical fueling alternative when transit is disrupted), benchmarked against Singapore and Rotterdam, plus the derived Fujairah premium over each comparison hub. The physical-commodity read on Hormuz stress that the Brent and insurance signals do not capture.
Output
A JSON object containing: timestamp (asOf), a ports array with per-port bunker prices in USD per tonne (VLSFO, MGO, IFO380) for Fujairah, a stale boolean indicating data freshness, and a spreads object showing Fujairah VLSFO differential vs Rotterdam and Singapore in USD per tonne.
Example use cases
Voyage cost estimation for tanker operators
“I need to estimate fuel costs for a VLCC calling at Fujairah next week — can you pull the latest VLSFO and MGO bunker prices there in USD per tonne so I can run the numbers?”
Arbitrage spread monitoring for fuel traders
“What's the current VLSFO price spread between Fujairah and Rotterdam, and between Fujairah and Singapore? I want to know if there's a tradeable arbitrage right now.”
Crisis impact reporting for shipping analysts
“Pull me the live Fujairah bunker prices — VLSFO, MGO, and IFO380 — and note whether the data is fresh or stale, so I can include it in my Strait of Hormuz market impact report.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://straits.live/api/premium/bunker?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need real-time marine bunker fuel prices specifically at Fujairah (the dominant bunkering hub for vessels transiting the Persian Gulf / Strait of Hormuz), including cross-hub spread data vs Rotterdam and Singapore. It is updated every 5 minutes and is purpose-built for the current Strait of Hormuz crisis context. Prefer it over generic commodity APIs when you need maritime-grade granularity (VLSFO/MGO/IFO380 split) and freshness guarantees with a stale flag.
Side effects
- Stale data flag set to true if upstream AIS or price feed has not refreshed within expected window
- Payment failure or 402 response if x402 USDC micropayment is not completed
- Empty or null port entries if Fujairah price data is temporarily unavailable
- Schema mismatch if caller expects additional ports beyond Fujairah in the current response
