And this is what the TSA has stated is the recent costs for bunker fuel

Weekly Average Price Differentials 0.1% MGO Low-Sulfur vs. Standard Bunker Fuel
	Week Of: Nov 30 Dec 07 Dec 14 Dec 21 Dec 28 Jan 04 2016 Jan 11 Jan 18 Jan 25 Feb 01 Feb 08 Feb 15 Feb 22	USWC 271 261.5 253	USEC/Gulf 213 200.5 188
	Source: Bunkerworld Reminder: Figures denote difference in price; as example, “100” means that at the load port in question, low-sulfur fuel cost $100/MT more than standard bunker fuel.

I guess if the bunker prices drop below 180 they will have to update their chart.
