Light Diesel Oil (LDO)

Light Diesel Oil (LDO) is a medium-coloured, free-flowing fuel derived from the distillation of crude oil. It is a blend of distillate and residual components produced during the crude oil refining process. LDO is classified as a Class C petroleum product and typically has a flash point above 60°C, making it a suitable fuel for a wide range of industrial heating and power-generation applications.

Light Diesel Oil is widely used as an efficient fuel alternative for industrial furnaces, boilers, heating systems, and low-RPM engines. Its free-flowing characteristics and reliable combustion performance make it suitable for industries requiring consistent and economical fuel for thermal and mechanical applications.

Applications of Light Diesel Oil

LDO is commonly used as a fuel in various industrial and commercial applications, including:

  • Industrial Boilers – Used for steam generation and industrial heating processes.
  • Furnaces – Suitable for fuel-fired furnaces and thermal processing applications.
  • Air Pre-Heaters – Used as a fuel source in air pre-heating systems.
  • Low-RPM Engines – Suitable for selected low-speed and low-RPM engine applications.
  • Lift Irrigation Pump Sets – Used to power diesel-operated agricultural and irrigation pump sets.
  • Fertilizer Plants – Utilized as a fuel for various heating and process applications.
  • Bunkers – Used as a fuel in suitable industrial and marine-related applications.
  • Diesel Generators – Used for power generation in compatible diesel generator sets.
