ABS FUELS
We are suppliers of wholesale petroleum throughout South Africa including ULP, Diesel and Illuminating Paraffin. Within ABS we have identified a need in the market for smaller businesses requiring diesel deliveries to their premises which prompted the commencement of a division dedicated to this which is ABS Fuels. We deliver diesel from as little as 100L up to 40 000L directly on our clients premises.

Africa Bunkering and Shipping reliably supplies HFO to power and manufacturing plants across Southern Africa. Our pricing is subject to the prevailing crude oil price and local transport rates. For more information regarding HFO and pricing please contact our offices.
BURNER FUELS
Burner fuels are recycled bi product which is an alternative to diesel and heavy fuel oil (HFO) thus reduces the amount of crude oil South Africa has to import. Burner fuels are used as an alternative to traditional products. ABS sources burner fuels from recycling plants and major refineries to suit the needs of our clients.
