There is a large number of diesel types for use in cars and ships, as well as different types of heating oils for use in small and large heating plants.

1. ESSO DIESEL 2000

ESSO DIESEL 2000/ADO is a sulfur free fuel. The production has particularly good antifoam properties. ESsO DIESEL 2000 is well suited for use in all kinds of high speed diesel engines. The product can reduce consumption by up to 4% compared to standard diesel qualities.

All ESSO DIESEL 2000 has had added  up to 5 volume percent FAME (Fatty acid methyl esters). The product meets the European quality standard for diesel EN590.

2. Esso Auto Diesel Oil (ADO)

To avoid increased wear of the diesel pump, lubricant is added to the product. ESSO LETTDIESEL has a slightly lower cetane rating and density than conventional ADO. When switching to this type of fuel this can be noticed through reduced traction force. ESSO LETTDIESEL may be employed for high-speed diesel engines when the conditions require it (lower temperature, tunnel operations, etc.)

5. ESSO LOW SULFUR GAS OIL (LSGO)

ESSO LAVSVOVEL GASSOLJE (LSGO) (Low sulfur gas oil) is a gas oil with good ignition and combustion properties, and with cold resisting properties adapted to summer and winter climates in Norway. The product has a low sulfur contents to meet stricter environmental standards, and good lubrication properties. LSGO is suited for use in marine high-speed and medium speed diesel engines.

6. ESSO MARINE GAS OIL (MGO)

ESSO MARINE GASSOLJE (marine gas oil) is a gas oil with good ignition properties suitable for use in marine high-speed and medium speed diesel engines.

7. ESSO FUEL OIL No.1

ESSO FYRINGSOLJE NR.1 (fuel oil no. 1) is a light fuel oil, with good combustion properties and suited for plants designed for light fuel oil.
