U.S. Bunker Fuel Market Summary

The U.S. bunker fuel market size was estimated at USD 22.80 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 30.51 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 5.0% from 2025 to 2030. The market is witnessing steady growth, driven by the expansion of global maritime trade and the demand for reliable marine fuel solutions.

Key drivers of the U.S. bunker fuel industry include container traffic growth at major ports, rising coastal and international trade activity, and increasing energy demand from maritime transport. In addition, the enforcement of IMO 2020 sulfur regulations and the U.S. environmental policies are pushing a shift toward cleaner marine fuels such as VLSFO, MGO, and LNG.

Technological progress is also vital, with innovations such as advanced fuel blending methods and digital fuel monitoring systems enhancing both efficiency and regulatory compliance. These technologies support improved fuel quality management, real-time fuel consumption tracking, and more efficient logistics resulting in lower emissions and operational cost savings. The shift toward low-sulfur and alternative marine fuels reflects a broader industry commitment to sustainable and environmentally responsible shipping practices. The U.S. bunker fuel market is experiencing a phase of dynamic transformation, driven by evolving regulatory landscapes, cleaner fuel demand, and operational innovations.
