Alkagesta contributed insights to ship.energy, highlighting the company’s strategic growth in Singapore, the world’s largest marine fuels trading hub.

The feature includes insights from Agshin Bakirzade, Alkagesta’s Commodity Trading Director, APAC, who explained that the company has been active in Singapore since 2020 through cargo arbitrage flows. The office, established in April, now serves as a regional hub, strengthening connectivity across Europe, Asia and the Middle East while supporting marine fuels distribution and logistics optimisation.

Alkagesta has seen strong operational growth, with volumes reaching 160,000 MT in November and 180,000 MT in December, approaching its monthly target of 250,000 MT. Volumes are expected to reach 200,000 MT per month in early 2026, reflecting disciplined execution and growing customer demand.

Bakirzade emphasises that expansion remains selective and strategic, focused on strengthening existing platforms and pursuing opportunities aligned with Alkagesta’s global portfolio.

This recognition by ship.energy reflects Alkagesta’s ongoing commitment to structured growth, operational excellence, and long-term value creation in global marine fuels markets.
