| General comment | Fuel oil, also known as Number 4 fuel oil or Bunker A, is a commercial heating oil used for burner installations not equipped with preheaters. It is obtained from the heavy gas oil cut. It is also used primarily for steam boilers in power plants, aboard ships, and in industrial plants. Fuel oil is a lighter type of oil, or a liquid byproduct of crude oil, used for energy, especially for heating. It falls under two main categories when petroleum is refined: distillate oils, including diesel, and residual oils, which include things like kerosene. |
