In an ideal world, fuel production would be up and running for Morocco, which would in turn M/F fuel for the marine programme. The POC fuel for Maersk was M/F in Lithuania and railroaded for bunkering, the PoC only requires 1000t of each fuel with no guarantees of future production, so getting a refiner to sign up is proving difficult.
The wait now is on MSC Leandra's drydocking which doesn.t seem to be happening as planned, so until she is dry docked and her new route and schedule disclosed, Quadrise are unable to nail down a fuel supplier.
Steve Byle spoke quite a few times about Utah supplying the fuel for the trials, seems a little far fetched but time will tell.
