Algoa Bay Bunkering Revival A Pivotal Opportunity For Sa

The reopening of bunkering in Algoa Bay is not just a return to business, its a chance to redefine South Africas role in the global maritime industry.

By learning from past challenges and leveraging new opportunities, Algoa Bay can become a model for sustainable and efficient offshore bunkering, says Durand Naidoo, CEO of Linsen Nambi.

With collaboration among government, industry stakeholders, and operators, Algoa Bays future is bright not just as a refuelling point, but as a key player in South Africas blue economy.

Situated on South Africas southeastern coastline, Algoa Bay has long been a maritime hub due to its strategic location on major global shipping routes.

Offshore bunkering began in the region in 2016, marking a pivotal moment in South Africas maritime industry.
