Trader joins Canadian bunker firm


Fuel and lubricants trader to handle enquiries for the East Coast of Canada.



Marine fuel and lubricants trader Panos Tsikleas has joined ICS Petroleum Ltd's office in Montreal, Canada.

Tsikleas, who was previously based at Aegean Marine Petroleum's main service centre office in Piraeus, Greece, began his new role at ICS Petroleum (Montreal) Ltd. - a subsidiary of Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc. - last month. In total he has been at the group for approximately 18 months. He previously worked for Limassol-based bunker and lubricants trading specialist Bunkernet Ltd./ Navilub Ltd.

Aegean, supported by ICS Petroleum, markets marine fuels and lubricants throughout the East Coast of Canada, specifically along the St. Lawrence Seaway, a system of canals that permits ocean-going vessels to transit from the Atlantic Ocean to the Great Lakes all the way to Lake Superior through the Welland Canal and the Great Lakes Waterway.

All products sold by Aegean in the area are said to meet ISO 8217/2005 standards. Low sulphur fuel oil is also available.

Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc. completed its acquisition of ICS Petroleum in July 2008. Formed in 1984, ICS markets bunker fuel to the Western and Eastern Canadian markets from its offices in Vancouver and Montreal. In addition, the company acts as a physical supplier in Vancouver and markets marine fuel in Mexico.
