Diesel D6 (Virgin Fuel Oil)

Diesel D6, also known as Virgin Fuel Oil, is a heavy-duty, residual fuel oil primarily used in large-scale industrial operations, marine engines, and power generation facilities. Unlike lighter diesel fuels, D6 is a thicker, less refined product obtained directly from crude oil distillation, making it an economical option for high-volume energy consumption.

At GGT Petrochemical, we supply high-quality Diesel D6 suitable for industrial boilers, bunker fuel for ships, and heavy machinery, ensuring consistent combustion performance and cost-efficiency for bulk fuel users.

Key Features:

• Heavy Viscosity: D6 fuel is significantly thicker than standard diesel fuels and requires pre-heating before use, especially in colder climates.

• High Energy Content: Due to its dense nature, D6 offers a high BTU value, making it suitable for continuous power production and marine propulsion.

• Cost-Effective: Often more affordable than lighter distillate fuels, D6 is a strategic choice for clients looking to optimize fuel costs for large-scale operations.

Typical Applications:

• Marine Industry: Widely used as bunker fuel in cargo ships, tankers, and industrial vessels due to its energy density and availability.

• Power Plants: Common in diesel-powered power stations, especially in regions without access to natural gas or grid electricity.

• Heavy Industry: Employed in cement plants, steel mills, and industrial boilers for process heating and steam generation.

Product Standards:

Our Diesel D6 conforms to industry-standard specifications, including:

• Low levels of contaminants such as sulfur and ash (when required)

• Options for off-spec and on-spec D6, depending on environmental regulations and technical requirements

• Compliance with ISO 8217 and ASTM D396 standards for fuel oils

At GGT Petrochemical, we offer bulk supply and flexible delivery options to ports and industrial zones around the globe. Our strong logistics network ensures timely shipments and customized solutions to meet the exact fuel requirements of your operation.
