Best Answer

"mt" is Metric Tonne - or 1000 kg. d2 is Diesel oil number 2 - or "Gasoil". A MT of D2 is about 7.3BBL of D2 and 304 gallons of D2. Fuel is measured by weight, since volume will change with pressure and temperature. So, a ship filled with 100 000MT of D2 will contain more or less 30.4 million gallons, depending on the temperature, and contain around 740 000BBL of D2. The main differentiator in the quality of D2 is sulphur content. This has been consistently lowered to reduce the emission from burning gasoil for heating or to produce electricity - or run diesel powered cars. Low sulphur is now 0.1 percent while ultra-low has at the most 0.02 percent of it weight being sulphur.
