The undercharge ratio was: in Singapore – minus $11 (minus $19 the day before), in Fujairah – minus $ 7 (minus $19), in Rotterdam – minus $ 3 (minus $ 4). In Houston, VLSFO fuel grade was overpriced by $ 7 (minus $8 the day before). There most significant changes in VLSFO MBP/DBP index were registered in Singapore (plus $8).
