Barge Operator
More pumping hours from every hull, less idle time, and nominations that arrive as a clean schedule.
About
Bunker Agent grew out of physical commodity trading, applied AI and software engineering. We build for what actually happens at the desk, in the port and on the barge.
Who we build for
Built around how each side of the market runs: physical assets, trading desks or captive fleet supply.
More pumping hours from every hull, less idle time, and nominations that arrive as a clean schedule.
Plan against live stock, protect blending margins and keep tank-to-barge balances tight.
Live barge schedules and laycans in front of the desk, without the status calls.
Supply your own fleet first and sell spare barge capacity, including for new fuels.
How we operate
The ground rules the platform is built to hold, on every screen and in every module.
Your stems, rates and counterparties stay ringfenced in your tenant. We never share, resell or train models on them, and if you leave, your data leaves with you.
The system proposes; your operators approve. Every action is logged with the operator, the time, the reason and the alternative that was declined.
Every stem, meter reading and signature on one searchable record. A question about a delivery from three months ago takes a minute, not a morning.
Wherever you operate
ARA works nothing like Singapore, and Hamburg nothing like Panama. Bunker Agent plans with a model of each port, not one schedule stretched across all of them.
ARA, Singapore, Fujairah, Panama and beyond, each with its own rules and rhythm.
Tides, locks, anchorages, terminal slots and local rules are built into the plan, not left to memory.
Practices differ between suppliers in the same port. We configure the model to yours and keep it current.
