Heavy heating oil C-3

Characteristic
The C 3 heating oil is a mixture of hydrocarbons obtained during conservative and secondary refinery processing of crude oil. It contains residual fractions of crude oil distillation and/or other refinery processes, as well as other petroleum-originated components whose properties fall within the range determined for the C3 grade. C3 is intended as a fuel for firing central heating boilers, steam boilers, industrial furnaces and for technological purposes.
