To meet the growing demand for greater transparency in energy trading operations, Fueltrax, a leading electronic fuel management solution (EFMS) provider for offshore vessels, has partnered with Houston-based blockchain specialist Topl to use its Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform.

With blockchain integrated into EFMS products, each step in the energy trading process has an equivalent digital step, including contract formation, asset tracking, and delivery of the product. As supply chain events occur in real-time, each is added to the Topl Blockchain, where a tamperproof record will live forever, providing more granular documentation and traceability.
