About Fuel Oil (VLSFO) (Granular)
Very Low Sulphur Fuel Oil (VLSFO) is a refined petroleum product engineered to meet International Maritime Organization (IMO) 2020 regulations, containing maximum 0.5% sulphur content. It serves as the primary marine fuel for ocean-going vessels and industrial power generation applications. VLSFO is traded in granular form, referring to its standardized specification batches rather than physical granules. Major production and export centers include Singapore, Rotterdam, and the Middle East (UAE, Saudi Arabia). Principal grades differentiate by viscosity (380 cSt, 180 cSt) and regional specifications. Buyers should verify sulphur certification through official test reports (ASTM D2622 or ISO 8217) and confirm compatibility with vessel fuel systems, as incompatible blending can cause sediment precipitation and equipment damage.
