  "summary": "Singapore's bio-bunker sales surged in September, with sales increasing by 43% to 81,000 mt, marking the highest monthly volume since March. This growth is primarily driven by the rise in VLSFO sales, which increased by 43% to 76,000 mt, while B100 sales also saw a substantial increase to 2,600 mt. However, despite this rise, September's sales were still 30% below the 115,000 mt recorded in September 2022. On the other hand, LNG bunker sales declined by 12% to 52,000 mt in September, but cumulative LNG sales for the first nine months of the year reached nearly 487,000 mt, up from 401,000 mt a year earlier. B100 and methanol bunker sales remained at zero for the seventh consecutive month.",
