What are the different types of fuels used in different country?

Answer 1

From crude we process 3 types of fuels, gasoil(distillate oil), gasoline and kerosene.

Gasoil:

Distillate oil number 2 is of a quality that diesel engines can use almost without further additives or processing. Atmospheric Gas Oil - AGO can be used at least in the summer. But for the winter you need additives to make it flow and also avoid that water condensate in the tank freeze and blocks the flow. The main use of gasoil is for heating and production of electricity.

Automotive diesel is produced for cars according to national specifications such as EN590, registered with ISO.

Gasoline:

Gasoline needs further processing at the refinery, where it is "reformed" to the correct octane rating. This deserves its own answer. With the correct additives, gasoline is used by propeller planes. Another name for gasoline is petroleum or used "petrol". Gasoline or petrol is produced according to national variants of ISO specifications just as diesel.

Kerosene:

Kerosene is used as light oil, but as fuel it is used as fuel for jet planes. Jetfuel is produced to national variants, the biggest difference is between military and civilian fuel.
