Product Description

D6 Diesel Standards and Classification CCAI and CII are two indexes which describe the ignition quality of residual fuel oil. The CCAI is especially often calculated for marine fuels. Despite this marine fuels are still quoted on the international bunker markets with their maximum viscosity. It is set by the ISO ***7 standard (see below) due to the fact that marine engines are designed to use different viscosities of fuel.

The unit of viscosity used is the Centistokes and the D6 fuel most frequently quoted are listed below in order of cost, the least expensive first:

* IFO **0 Intermediate D6 Fuel Oil with a Maximum Viscosity of **0 Centistokes.

* IFO **0 Intermediate D6 Fuel Oil with a Maximum Viscosity of **0 Centistokes.

* LS **0 LowSulphur (<1.5%) Intermediate D6 Fuel Oil with a Maximum Viscosity of **0 Centistokes.

* LS **0 LowSulphur (<1.5%) Intermediate D6 Fuel Oil with a Maximum Viscosity of **0 Centistokes.

* MDO Marine Diesel Oil.

*MGO Marine Gasoil.

Russia is one of the big producers of D6 Fuel Oil and main refineries in Russia produce this product in large quantities. Russian D6 Virgin Fuel Oil has a very good quality and can be supplied to customers around the world.
