Résumé
We order packages from across the world with a single click, completely blind to the thick, toxic sludge that actually powers global globalization. 90% of international trade is carried on massive container ships, and the vast majority of those colossal engines burn Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO), commonly known as bunker fuel.
Bunker fuel is the absolute bottom of the petroleum barrel. It is the tar-like, high-sulfur waste product left over after refineries extract gasoline and jet fuel.
It is so thick it must be physically heated on the ship just to flow through the pipes. This book exposes the highly obscure, multi-billion-dollar economy of maritime fuel logistics. We analyze the ruthless cost-cutting of the shipping industry that relies on this cheap, hyper-polluting byproduct. The narrative also examines the intense geopolitical friction surrounding recent international regulations forcing the industry to finally cap sulfur emissions, sparking a chaotic scramble in global refineries. Look into the dark engine room of global trade.
Understand the massive, dirty energy economy that silently moves every product on Earth across the ocean.
