The Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) announced that it has revoked the bunker craft operator licence of Pegasus Maritime (S) Pte Ltd (Pegasus), effective from 16 July 2018.
After MPA Singapore conducted checks on Pegasus earlier this year, it discovered that the company had allowed an unlicensed craft operator to use its bunker craft to make bunker deliveries. As a result, MPA revoked Pegasus’s bunker craft operator licence.
