What Is Marine Gas Oil?
Marine Gas Oil (MGO) is a distillate-based fuel used to power marine engines. Unlike heavy fuel oils (HFO), it burns cleaner, contains less sulfur, and complies with modern environmental standards like ISO 8217 and IMO 2020. MGO is commonly used in:
- Tugboats, ferries, fishing vessels
- Cargo ships operating within Emission Control Areas (ECAs)
- Backup marine generators
- Vessels that require low-sulfur fuel (<0.5%)
There are several types of marine fuels, generally classified into:
Marine Gas Oil vs Marine Diesel vs Heavy Fuel Oil
| Fuel Type | Refinement | Sulfur content | Usage Area | Heating Needed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MGO | High | Low (<0.1%) | Coastal & ECAs | Ⅹ No |
| Marine Diesel Oil | Medium | Medium | High seas | Ⅹ No |
| Heavy Fuel Oil | Low | High (>3.5%) | Long-haul, offshore | ✓ Yes |
MGO Standards & Compliance
Vegatron supplies ISO 8217-compliant MGO with the following features:
- < 0.1% sulfur (LS-MGO) – suitable for IMO 2020 compliance
- DMA/DMB grades
- Certified for safe combustion in both auxiliary and propulsion engines
Did you know?
Using non-compliant fuel in regulated waters can result in
hefty fines or detentions.
Marine Gas Oil is Diesel?
Marine diesel is comparable to diesel fuel, except it is denser.
Maritime diesel oil (MDO) is a term used to describe marine fuels that are composed of various distillates (also known as marine gasoil) and heavy fuel oil mixes. Unlike land-based motor fuels, marine diesel is not a pure distillate.
