Global fuel quality trends include reduced use of lead, increased gasoline research octane number (RON), reduced diesel sulfur levels, and increased diesel cetane number. These are the findings of a recently released 1995 fuel quality survey conducted by Associated Octel Co. Ltd., Milton Keynes, UK. Octel`s survey quotes officially published statistics, if available. When possible, the survey uses the actual quality of fuels found in the marketplace rather than legislated specifications. The paper describes gasoline demand, gasoline quality, diesel quality, and additive use.
