As of June 08, a correlation of MABUX MBP Index (Market Bunker Prices) vs MABUX DBP Index (Digital Bunker Prices Benchmark) in four largest global hubs showed that 380 HSFO fuel remained underpriced in all selected ports: from minus $ 23 in Houston (minus $ 26 a day earlier) to minus $ 42 (unchanged) in Rotterdam and minus $ 48 (minus $ 46) in Singapore.

VLSFO, according to MABUX DBP Index, was also underestimated in all ports on 08 June. The underestimation ranged from minus $ 4 in Houston (versus minus $ 8 the day before) and minus $ 24 (minus $ 25) in Rotterdam to minus $ 42 (minus $ 45) in Fujairah and minus $ 43 (unchanged) in Singapore. The underestimation ratio has changed insignificant.

On June 08, MABUX DBP Index also registered the underpricing of MGO LS in all selected ports, ranging from minus $ 23 (minus $ 26 a day earlier) in Houston to minus $ 47 (minus $ 48) in Rotterdam, minus $ 56 (minus $ 54) in Singapore and minus $ 53 (minus $ 51) in Fujairah.
