ISO 21562 verification for marine fuel bunkering solution 

EcoMATE announcement BFA
Fuel measurement solution of KROHNE Marine verified according to ISO 21562:2020 for bunkering on receiving vessels

KROHNE Marine introduces a measurement solution for marine fuels that meets the requirements of ISO 21562:2020 for bunkering on receiving vessels (except custody transfer applications). It is based on the OPTIMASS 2400 F and OPTIMASS 6400 F Coriolis mass flowmeters (MFM) in combination with EcoMATE™ software.

ISO 21562 defines performance criteria, functional requirements and operational guidelines intended to support accurate, consistent and traceable marine fuel measurement. A key expectation of the standard is achieving an expanded measurement uncertainty of 0.5% for bunker fuel applications.

To achieve verification, KROHNE Marine underwent a comprehensive conformity assessment covering instrumentation performance, system configuration and data-handling processes. This reflects KROHNE Marine’s continued commitment to providing accurate, reliable and technically robust measurement solutions for the maritime industry.

The verification offers operators, authorities and classification bodies independently validated evidence of conformity with a recognised international standard, supporting transparent and traceable bunker operations worldwide.
