Bunker trader relocates to US, earns promotion


Oscar Obregon named Development Manager, Mexico and Central America.



Houston-based Dan-Bunkering (America) Inc. has announced the relocation of Oscar Obregon from Dan-Bunkering in Copenhagen - where he was initially employed as a bunker trader back in 2012.

In connection with his relocation to Houston, Obregon has also been promoted to Development Manager, Mexico and Central America.

Explaining the decision, Dan-Bunkering said: "Oscar is originally of Mexican extraction, making it an obvious choice to have Oscar focusing on maintaining and creating new business opportunities within this region."

"The relocation is an excellent example of the Dan-Bunkering Group's internal mobility programme, allowing the employees to relocate internationally and transfer knowledge and experience between the offices worldwide as part of the company's strategy," Dan-Bunkering added.

Contact details for Oscar Obregon have been provided below.
