Furnace Oil, also known as Fuel Oil, is derived from the residues of crude oil distillation. Furnace Oils are used in various industries around the world, such as for steam boilers in power plants, in the shipping industry, various industrial plants, the cement industry etc. for Furnace Oils to be used in Burners, Engines and boiler-based industries, it needs to have suitable energy values. The Furnace Oil is tested to check for its burning properties and contaminants like water, dirt, other foreign liquids etc.
