The Bunker Report records every bunker lifting — fuel supplied from a barge, ex-pipe from a terminal, or ship-to-ship from another vessel. It is submitted in addition to the usual Noon / Arrival / Departure reports for the same day, never as a replacement. When to send: At the completion of every bunkering, before the next scheduled performance report.
The submission flow (Submit → copy encoded block → paste into a plain-text Outlook email) is the same as for every other Metaweave form. See the Forms Guidelines → Submission of Metaweave Forms for the email template, recipient list, and subject-line rules.

Bunker Event Timeline

All six timestamps must form a monotonic chain — each event must be at or after the previous one. The validation layer will block submission if they are out of order.

Fuel Type & Quantity Lifted

Add one row per fuel grade lifted.

BDN row fields

FieldMeaning
Fuel CategoryDrop-down — HSFO, VLSFO, VLSFO (≤40 cSt), LSMGO, ULSFO, etc.
BDN NumberBunker Delivery Note number from the supplier.
BDN QuantityQuantity per the BDN, in MT.
Vessel Received QuantityQuantity per the vessel’s own measurements, in MT.
ViscosityFrom the BDN / Certificate of Quality.
DensityFrom the BDN / Certificate of Quality.
LCVFrom the BDN / Certificate of Quality.
Sulphur %From the BDN / Certificate of Quality.
Water %From the BDN / Certificate of Quality.

Bio Fuel and Blends

When the BDN delivers a biofuel or a blended grade (a fossil base mixed with one or more bio components), use the + Add Bio Fuel button below the Fuel Type table. There are two cases:
BDN deliversWhat to enter
Pure bio fuel (e.g. 100 MT HVO)One parent BDN row + one Bio Fuel entry tagged with the bio category. No blend dialog.
Blend of fossil + bio (e.g. 500 MT B30 of VLSFO + FAME)One parent BDN row + one “Blend” Bio Fuel entry + one component row per blended fuel (2–3 components allowed). Component quantities must sum to the parent BDN quantity.

Add BioFuel dialog fields

FieldMeaning
Vessel CodeAuto-populated from settings.
Bunkering PortAuto-copied from the main bunker report header.
Bunkering Date / TimeAuto-copied from the parent BDN row.
BDN NumberSame BDN number as the parent row — links the bio fuel entry to the parent BDN.
BDN QuantityTotal BDN quantity in MT. For a pure bio delivery this is the bio quantity itself; for a blend this is the total delivered including the fossil base.
Fuel CategorySelect Blend if the BDN is a mixture, or pick the specific bio category for a single bio fuel (see list below).
Supported bio fuel categories:
CodeName
(ETH)Ethanol
(BD)BioFT-Diesel
(HVO)Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil
(LBM)Liquefied Bio-Methane
(BM)Bio-Methanol
(PVO)Pure Vegetable Oil
(DME)Dimethyl Ether
(BH2)Bio-H2
(ED)e-diesel
(EM)e-methanol
(ELNG)e-LNG
(ELPG)e-LPG
(EH2)e-H2
(ENH3)e-NH3
(EDME)e-DME
(FAME)FAME Diesel
(HTL)Hydrothermal Liquefaction Oil
(UPO)Upgraded Pyrolysis Oil
(UCO)Used Oils and Fats
(ALO)Algae Oil

Bio fuel / blend decision tree

Blend Component dialog fields

FieldMeaning
Blend Component 1First component fuel type — the fossil base (e.g. (VLA80)VLSFO>80, HFO, LFO, MGO). Mandatory.
BDN Quantity (Component 1)Quantity of the first component in MT. Mandatory, must be > 0.
Blend Component 2Second component — usually the bio part (e.g. (FAME) Diesel, (HVO)Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil). Mandatory.
BDN Quantity (Component 2)Quantity of the second component in MT. Mandatory, must be > 0.
Blend Component 3Optional third component for a ternary blend. Leave as None for a 2-component blend.
BDN Quantity (Component 3)Required only if Component 3 is set.
The sum of all component BDN quantities must equal the parent BDN Quantity from the Add BioFuel dialog. The shore pipeline computes the bio percentage from component masses — do not enter percentages, only mass in MT.

Editing or removing a Bio Fuel entry

  • Each row in the BDN Bio Fuel table can be deleted using the trash icon at the end of the row. Deleting a parent Blend row also removes its components.
  • To correct a quantity or component selection, delete the parent row and re-enter via + Add Bio Fuel. There is no direct in-line edit — the dialog flow is the only path that keeps the parent/component link consistent.

Documents & Remarks

FieldMeaning
Letter of ProtestYes / No — select Yes if any LOP was issued during the bunkering.
Cert of Quality Rec’dYes / No.
RemarksAny discrepancies, delays, or quality observations.

Master’s Name

First and last name of the reporting Master. Required.
