Fuel Supply Issue Puts PortMiami Cruise Operations at Risk
PortMiami is facing a potential problem after its fuel depot was sold in September, according to WLRN South Florida.
The port relies on a privately owned bunker on nearby Fisher Island, but with the depot acquired by a real estate investment company, PortMiami may soon lack an accessible fuel source.
As one of the world's largest cruise homeports, Miami welcomed over 8 million passengers in 2024, making the potential fuel shortage a significant concern.
A meeting of Miami-Dade Commissioners discussed the issue, with officials recommending a search for a new fuel facility location at the port.
