BWI - Bunkerworld Index

You also access the Bunkerworld Index (BWI) which is a weighted daily index based on Bunkerworld Benchmark Prices from 20 key bunkering ports. Bunkerworld has extended the BWI with three new indices: The BW380, the BW180 and the BWDI. These indices are all compiled from the same 20 ports as the BWI, however, the BW380 is a daily average dollar value index of 380 centistoke (cst) bunker fuel, the BW180 is a is a daily average dollar value index of 180 centistoke (cst) bunker fuel and the BWDI is a combined daily average dollar value index of MDO (marine diesel oil) and MGO (marine gasoil) distillate fuels.

These indices provide a single number that describes the global bunker market on any particular day and tracks market movements without the need to analyse data from multiple ports or rely on main indicators from unrelated ports. The indices are transparent and independently calculated and enables users to easily track movements and improve financial management. Not only designed for bunker professionals dealing with these markets on a daily basis, they will be important for any company exposed to the global bunker market, such as multinational shippers, charterers, traders, banks and insurance companies. They are a versatile reference point with multiple applications, for example a basis for setting bunker fuel futures, swaps or OTC contracts, as well as providing an independent basis for the calculation of bunker surcharges.
