D6 fuel oil, also known as Residual Fuel Oil or Bunker Fuel, is a heavy, high-viscosity petroleum product used primarily in industrial boilers, power plants, and large marine engines. It has a high sulfur content (up to 3.5%) and requires preheating for proper combustion due to its thick consistency. D6 is less refined than diesel and jet fuels, making it a low-cost, high-energy fuel suited for large-scale applications.
D2 diesel fuel is a mid-distillate petroleum product used in diesel engines, meeting ISO 8217 and ASTM D975 standards. It has a cetane number of at least 51, a sulfur content of up to 500 ppm (Low Sulfur) or 10 ppm (Ultra-Low Sulfur - ULSD), and a flash point above 52�°C, ensuring efficient combustion and reduced emissions. D2 is widely used in transportation, agriculture, and industrial applications due to its reliability and energy efficiency.
Original Jet A1 Fuel is a high-performance aviation fuel designed for use in turbine-engine aircraft. Known for its excellent combustion properties, it ensures safe, efficient, and reliable operation of aircraft, meeting international quality and safety standards.
Jet A1 is a� kerosene-type fuel. Jet fuel or aviation turbine fuel is a type of aviation fuel designed for use in aircraft powered by gas-turbine engines. It is colorless to straw-colored in appearance. The most commonly used fuels for commercial aviation are Jet A and Jet A-1, which are produced to a standardized international specification. During the refining process only 8% of the crude oil is made up of Jet fuel.

There are two main types of aviation fuels used by airlines around the world: aviation gasoline and jet fuel, which are suitable for different types of aircraft engines. Aviation gasoline is used as fuel for piston type aviation engines. Due to the fact that jet fuels commonly produced and widely used both domestically and internationally belong to the kerosene type, they are commonly referred to as aviation kerosene, abbreviated as aviation coal.
