Hi all,
Please let me know the ultimate analysis for Marine Fuel Oil (MFO 180 cSt) if you have them, or please advise me on where I can find them.
Thank you very much for your support.
Kind regard

ISO8217-2005
ISO8217-2005 is the latest standard and provides the limits for all grades. RME180 and RMF180 are the 2 grades for 180cst. The major differences being the limits for Micro Carbon Residue 15%m/m vs 20%m/m, Ash 0.10%m/m vs 0.15%m/m and Vanadium 200ppm vs 500ppm.
Don't quite understand your term "ultimate analysis".
Check out www.dnvps.com there is also some good info there.

CHN&O
CHN&O are generally not run as part of a standard fuel quality assessment If you want the total spectrum you would also add ASTM D-240 gross heat of combustion and calculate the net heat based on Hydrogen content or perhaps an FCA (Fuel Combustions Analysis) To identify all components of a fuel one would have to run GC/MS or NMR tests.
