 GASOIL

 Gas oil forms part of a family of heavy oils. It is created by means of a process of fractional distillation of petroleum. It is used as a diesel fuel in heating and automotive applications.

 Gas oil that is used to power off-road vehicles that are used in the industrial, commercial and agricultural communities is often called “red diesel”

 Fuels and oils are taxed differently depending on their purpose – gas oil used for tractors; mowers and tippers are dyed red in order for inspectors to tell the difference. Other gas oil is considered “white diesel” as it is not dyed.

 D2

 This is gas oil that is the second distillate that is obtained through the processing of crude oil. Reformers and additives are not required to make use of this fuel. The version of D2 that has lower sulphur content is GOST *****2 and it is the presentation of this to the market that has helped in a major reduction in pollution in many cities.
