Back Sea freight Secured Energy Plan - Long-term, stable fuel prices

Find out how your business can overcome the challenges of volatile energy markets and how you can reach budget security for your transportation costs.

Are you worried about the volatility in the marine fuel market? Would predictable calculations of future bunker costs help your financial planning?

Bunker Fuel is the main cost driver in container shipping. Even though the mandatory use of a cleaner fuel with only 0.5% sulphur content is already being successfully implemented, the industry still has to absorb further costs in order to reach the next climate targets. The resulting higher costs and expected price fluctuations in the global energy markets have a severe effect on ocean cargo. How can you protect your business against the unpredictable risk of volatile energy prices? You are in the right place to find the best advice for your company.

Kuehne+Nagel has developed the Secured Energy Plan so that your business can hedge against fuel price fluctuations that affect your transportation costs. The Secured Energy Plan is a transparent, easily accessible financial risk management tool that can help your business to manage the volatility of global energy markets.


Enjoy these benefits: 

  • Reach budget security by entering into a fixed price agreement for up to three years in advance
  • Exactly know your energy costs for each twenty-foot equivalent unit (TEU), reflecting actual consumption values
  • Plan well ahead and meet your budget by mitigating the fuel price volatility related to your ocean cargo
