Fuel oil is any of various fractions obtained from the distillation of petroleum (crude oil). Such oils include distillates (the lighter fractions) and residues (the heavier fractions). Fuel oils include heavy fuel oil (bunker fuel), marine fuel oil (MFO), furnace oil (FO), gas oil (gas oil), heating oils (such as home heating oil), diesel fuel and others.
Fuel oil has many uses; it heats homes and businesses and fuels trucks, ships, and some cars. It is often used as a backup fuel for peaking power plants in case the supply of natural gas is interrupted or as the main fuel for small electrical generators.

Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) is a residual fuel incurred during the distillation of crude oil. It is primarily used to generate motion and/or heat that have a particularly high viscosity and density. Mainly used in industrial boilers and other direct source heating applications. It is also used as a principal fuel in marine applications and large diesel engines. Generally HFO typically includes bitumen, asphaltenes and long chain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
