GTL Diesel

Future belongs to Uzbekistan GTL fuel

In the modern world, diesel on merit takes one of a lead positions in the industry and synthetic diesel (hereinafter referred to as GTL fuel) produced by Uzbekneftegaz GTL Plant is also no exception. It has been widely used thanks to its advantages, among which the priority is given to high environmental and operational properties.

GTL fuel is a fully synthetic, high-quality, medium-distillate fuel produced from natural gas using the patented Sasol technology. This fuel is considered a premium class fuel and has the following features:

GTL Fuel:

• Almost zero sulphur content (<5 ppm)
• Very high cetane number (>70)
• Almost zero aromatic hydrocarbons content (<0,5 mass. %)
• Almost odorless and colorless
• Meets all requirements of the European standard EN 15940

In honor of Earth Day (April 22), Yale Center for Environmental Law and Policy prepared an Environmental Performance Index (EPI), where Uzbekistan ranked 4th out of 20 countries with the worst air quality. Using 100% GTL fuel in diesel vehicles, such as public or agricultural transport, can contribute to better air quality in the region by reducing local emissions.

GTL diesel possesses high technical parameters and low air emissions with almost zero sulphur content. GTL diesel can be used in existing diesel engines, either in a neat form or as a blend stock. GTL diesel reduces some pollutants by up to 70% compared to standard crude-derived diesel and its cleaner and more complete combustion means less buildup of deposits in the engine.
