Ofiniti, a digital platform for maritime fuel operations, announced it has raised $6.8 million in a growth round to expand its global footprint and accelerate the adoption of its digital bunkering solutions. The round was led by Verb Ventures and co-led by ShipsFocus, with participation from DNV, Nysnø, and other investors, bringing the company’s total funding to $9 million.
The company provides a platform that manages scheduling, operational coordination, and digital documentation for marine fuel deliveries across conventional and alternative fuels, including LNG, methanol, biofuels, and ammonia. The new capital will support international scaling across major bunkering hubs as the shipping industry increasingly shifts toward digital and compliant fuel operations.
Ofiniti reported strong operational growth, having processed more than 25,000 bunker operations in 2025, including 500,000 metric tonnes of alternative fuels. The company expects volumes to increase significantly in 2026. Its platform is designed to improve efficiency, saving an average of 45 minutes per delivery, resulting in substantial industry-wide time savings.
The company has established a significant presence in Singapore, the world’s largest digital bunkering market, where it holds approximately 40% market share. It has also expanded across Europe, West Africa, and the Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and Antwerp region, supported by adoption from major fuel suppliers and shipping companies.
Founded within DNV and spun out as an independent company in 2024, Ofiniti is headquartered in Copenhagen and serves more than 50 customers globally. The company has also expanded its capabilities through the acquisition of Singapore-based Angsana Technology, thereby strengthening its position in the Asia-Pacific market.
The investment comes as the maritime industry faces increasing regulatory pressure to digitize operations, improve transparency, and support the transition to low-carbon fuels, positioning Ofiniti as a key infrastructure provider in the evolving global shipping ecosystem.

This funding enables us to serve more customers, in more markets, as demand for digital bunkering operations continues to grow.”
