Starting from 2006, a special state license is needed to supply bonded 

fuel to ships on international voyages. The Ministry of Commerce 

has thus granted such license to China Marine Bunker (PetroChina), 

Sinopec Zhejiang Zhoushan Petroleum, China Changjiang Bunker 

(Sinopec), China Shipping & Sinopec Suppliers, and Brightoil 

Petroleum (Holdings).

To drive the growth of international bunkering business, the government 

of Zhoushan released the Interim Measures of China (Zhejiang) Pilot 

Free-Trade Zone on the Operation and Administration of Bonded 

Fuel for Ships on International Voyages (ZZF [2017] No. 32) in 2017, 

effective from June 1, 2017. The Measures is applicable to the sale, 

and the supervision and administration of sale of bonded fuel to ships 

on international voyages by companies registered in the Zhejiang FTZ. 

“Sales activities” here means the provision of bonded fuel to those 

ships within the jurisdictional boundaries of Hangzhou Customs.

Between June 2017 and September 2019, nine companies were 

approved to engage in these sales, namely Zhejiang Petroleum Fuel 

Oil Sales, Zhoushan Zheneng Petrochemical, CEFC International 

(Zhoushan) Petroleum, CNPC & TAFO Marine Fuel, Zhoushan Free
