Important specification changes to Gas Oil
On 1 January 2011, the sulphur levels for Gas Oil will be further reduced. As a result, the new spec Gas Oil will contain up to a maximum of 7% BioDiesel. For most users, this will have no effect at all. However, users storing Gas Oil over long periods (ie standby generator tanks) may find that bacterial growth may occur in the tanks over time.
