About Kerosene
Kerosene is widely known as an efficient and reliable fuel source. The thin clear liquid is often used to heat homes and has many commercial uses too. Kerosene, or 28 second oil as it is commonly known, is a popular choice, due to its low freezing point, for industries where engines and machinery are exposed to colder temperatures.
As with all fossil fuels, kerosene contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, however, it produces fewer emissions than some traditional fuels like coal and wood.

Kerosene prices fluctuate daily and even throughout the day, therefore it is always advisable to contact your local team for up-to-date kerosene prices.

- Currency exchange rates – Countries which rely on energy exports to fuel economic growth mean that any peaks or troughs in exchange rates, affects the price on this fuel
- OPEC agreements – OPEC (The Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries) exists to keep global oil prices stable which then affects the price of fuel
