EN590 Diesel (10ppm)

CBIL brokers EN590 10ppm diesel (ULSD / AGO) meeting the European automotive gas-oil standard. Supply is refinery or term-holder cargo, sold against a named loading terminal, a stated quantity and a laycan, with SGS or Intertek quality and quantity certification at the load port. Pricing follows the published gasoil assessment for the loading region, with the differential quoted per cargo.

EN590 and 10 ppm diesel are the same product: the standard caps sulphur at 10.0 mg/kg. Its other limits are a cetane number of at least 51.0 and a cetane index of at least 46.0, density at 15 °C of 820–845 kg/m³ (EN 590:2013+A1:2017), a flash point above 55 °C, no more than 65% recovered at 250 °C and at least 85% at 350 °C with 95% recovered by 360 °C, HFRR lubricity of 460 µm or less at 60 °C, water of 200 mg/kg or less, total contamination of 24 mg/kg or less and FAME up to 7.0% v/v. Cold flow is set by climate class: temperate grades A to F run from a CFPP of +5 °C down to -20 °C, and arctic classes 0 to 4 from -20 °C down to -44 °C, so the class is matched to the discharge port and season before a cargo is worked. Diesel at 50 or 500 ppm sulphur is not EN590 and is traded as gasoil; US ASTM D975 S15 diesel has its own ULSD page.

We work one way: a named seller, a named terminal, an inspected cargo and payment against shipping documents under a documentary letter of credit. Nothing is quoted until the title holder and the loading terminal are known to us, and nothing is sold that an inspector has not seen. Suitable for road-transport fleets, power generation and industrial off-takers requiring consistent low-sulphur supply.

What we do not do: we do not circulate or respond to soft corporate offers, ICPO and bank-comfort-letter procedures, dip-and-pay or tank-to-vessel offers, or paper passed on by mandates and intermediaries. Those documents rarely lead to a cargo, and no refinery sells road diesel that way. A buyer writes to us with its company details, the discharge port, the quantity, the delivery window and the bank that will open the letter of credit; a seller writes with the refinery or terminal, the tank certificate and the inspector. Everything else is not answered.
