Bunker Index is pleased to announce the launch of BunkerTrends, the new marine fuel price analysis service for the bunker industry.

Launched today, BunkerTrends aims to provide Bunker Index users with a unique service which focuses solely on examining price data and providing an in-depth analysis of bunker price trends.

BunkerTrends articles will include analytical commentaries, tables and graphs. Users will also be able to click through to full-sized graphs for visual analysis.

BunkerTrends has been devised with the intention of making the task of analysing bunker price information even easier by providing a time-saving service that examines key bunker market trends for users.

Commenting on the BunkerTrends launch, company spokesperson Eladio Garrido said "Rather than simply providing bunker price information and tools for users to analyse themselves, which can be very time-consuming, BunkerTrends aims to go one step further by offering a service that actually carries out the task of analysing key market data for users."

An important feature of BunkerTrends will be to analyse current and historical port data as well as global and regional indices listed on the Bunker Index website.
