# Bunker Categories

<figure><img src="/files/cOqvyJq4iv1eNmuMUOG6" alt=""><figcaption><p>(Figure 1) Bunker Categories master data list</p></figcaption></figure>

This list provides an overview of all bunker categories in the system and offers insight into the logic that determines the default bunker usage for **all voyages** without a [vessel bunker category configuration](/release-8.25/voyage-management-system/step-by-step-guides/vessels/vessel-speed-and-consumption-data.md) for legs that lie beyond not emission restricted areas.

The significance of the column *Priority* is that it specifies the bunker hierarchy in which the bunkers are consumed in the area that has no restrictions.

Example:&#x20;

* In an area without any restrictions, the priority 1 bunker category will be selected (ref. figure 1, the category will be FO).

One key feature is the reorder functionality, located at the top-right of the list (↑↓). See the figure below for the reorder modal insight:

If the reorder above is completed, the bunker category *LS FO* will become the priority 1 category, meaning that it will be used as the most favoured category for all voyages without a [vessel bunker category configuration](/release-8.25/voyage-management-system/step-by-step-guides/vessels/vessel-speed-and-consumption-data.md) in areas without emission restrictions (e.g. high seas).
