EN 590 automotive diesel reference

Sulfur

≤10 mg/kg (reference product)

Cetane number

≥51 (reference product)

Seasonal grade

CFPP and climate class to be specified

Flash point

≥55.1 °C (Neste reference product)

Water

≤200 mg/kg (Neste reference product)

Lubricity / HFRR

≤460 μm (Neste reference product)

Other gasoil applications require their own agreed grade; EN 590 does not cover every gasoil. The values above are selected parameters from an EN 590-compliant Neste product sheet, not a complete standard.

Reference: Neste EN 590 product sheet ↗

Your inquiry

State the applicable fuel standard, sulfur limit, seasonal class, quantity and destination.

Heavy Gasoil / HGO inquiry specification

Density at 15 °C

kg/m³; required range to be agreed
ASTM D4052 ↗

Kinematic viscosity

mm²/s (cSt); specify 40/50/100 °C and limit
ASTM D445 ↗

Total sulfur

% m/m; maximum to be agreed
ASTM D4294 ↗

Flash point, closed cup

°C; minimum to be agreed
ASTM D93 ↗

Distillation profile

°C and recovery %; cut points to be agreed
ASTM D1160 ↗

Specify the refinery stream (straight-run, vacuum or cracked), origin and intended use. The listed ASTM references are test methods, not one universal Heavy Gasoil quality standard. Method suitability and editions must be confirmed for the sample. Numerical acceptance limits require a producer specification and an agreed purchase grade.

Additional requirements

Agree water and sediment, nitrogen, carbon residue, nickel/vanadium, pour point and other limits relevant to the intended process.

Your inquiry

Provide the intended application, desired density/viscosity range, sulfur maximum, flash-point minimum, distillation requirements, quantity and destination. Request a product specification and batch Certificate of Analysis.

EN 228 road gasoline reference

Example grades

95E10 / 98E5 (Neste product range)

Octane requirements

RON / MON to be specified

Other parameters

Oxygenates, sulfur, vapor pressure and distillation

Select the destination-market grade and seasonal requirements. The example grades are not a confirmed Grencord offering.

Reference: Neste gasoline / EN 228 ↗

Your inquiry

State the RON/MON grade, ethanol allowance, destination standard, quantity and delivery window.

Jet A-1 reference

Standard options

ASTM D1655 / DEF STAN 91-091

Flash point

≥38 °C (Jet A-1)

Freezing point

≤−47 °C (Jet A-1)

These selected limits apply to Jet A-1. Jet A is a different grade. Agree the standard edition and full quality requirements.

Reference: Shell aviation fuel specifications ↗

Your inquiry

Specify Jet A-1 or another required grade, standard edition, quantity and delivery location.

Marine fuel / ISO 8217:2024 reference

Fuel category

Specify the ISO grade where marine use applies

Key parameters

Viscosity, density, sulfur, flash point

Additional controls

Water, sediment, stability and contaminants

ISO 8217 concerns marine fuels. Industrial fuel oil requires its own application-specific specification; limits depend on the selected grade.

Reference: ISO 8217:2024 overview ↗

Your inquiry

State the application, grade, viscosity at its test temperature, sulfur limit and delivery basis.

Low-sulfur marine fuel reference

Outside sulfur-control areas

0.50% m/m sulfur limit under MARPOL

Inside sulfur-control areas

0.10% m/m sulfur limit under MARPOL

Quality specification

Selected ISO 8217:2024 fuel grade

LSFO alone is not an ISO quality grade. The MARPOL figures are regulatory reference limits, not a specification of a Grencord product. Applicable compliance arrangements must be checked for the intended use.

Reference: ISO 8217:2024 overview ↗ · IMO marine sulfur limits ↗

Your inquiry

Specify the maximum sulfur content, intended marine/industrial use, viscosity and required fuel grade.

API base-stock group reference

Group I

Saturates <90% and/or sulfur >0.03%; VI 80 to <120

Group II

Saturates ≥90%; sulfur ≤0.03%; VI 80 to <120

Group III

Saturates ≥90%; sulfur ≤0.03%; VI ≥120

API groups classify base stocks; they do not define a complete purchase specification. Viscosity grade, flash point, pour point and other limits remain to be agreed. Reference: API 1509 Annex E, 2021 edition.

Reference: API 1509, Annex E (2021) ↗

Your inquiry

Specify the API group, viscosity at 40/100 °C, viscosity index, flash/pour points and quantity.

Grade-specific refinery feedstock

Grade / use

Light or heavy naphtha; intended application

Boiling range

IBP, FBP and distillation curve; ASTM D86 reference

Other parameters

Density, sulfur and hydrocarbon composition

ASTM D86 is a test method, not a universal naphtha product specification. Required limits depend on the feedstock grade and application.

Reference: ASTM D86 distillation test ↗

Your inquiry

Provide the intended process, distillation range, sulfur limit, composition requirements and delivery basis.
