Special Fuel Oils

  • Description
    SPECIAL FUEL OILS are blended fuels of diesel and fuel oils intended for use in domestic marine vessels. These fuel products are classified into Special Fuel Oil (SFO) Grades based on viscosity ranges. SFO can also be used as Intermediate Fuel Oil as long as it meets the requirements of the particular IFO Grade specified by the customer.
  • Application Domestic marine vessels
  • Grade SFO 45, 60, 100, 200, 400, 600, 1100, 1500
  • Available Package Bulk
