Rotterdam LNG Bunker Prices Rise for Fifth Week on Gas Supply Tightness
Marine LNG prices have climbed across key global bunkering hubs, with Rotterdam extending its weekly rally alongside a stronger Dutch TTF benchmark.
Liquefied natural gas bunker prices in Rotterdam advanced for a fifth straight week, rising by $83 per metric tonne to reach $1,429/mt. The upward movement was driven by tightening European natural gas availability and firming regional gas indices.
The front-month Dutch TTF natural gas contract underpinned the gains in the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp hub. The benchmark climbed $1.58/MMBtu, or approximately $82/mt, over the weekly period to settle at $25.21/MMBtu.
Other key bunkering locations similarly registered price increases over the week. Baltic LNG bunker rates rose by $85/mt to $1,534/mt, while Singapore prices climbed by $46/mt to reach $1,489/mt.
