{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DefinedTerm","name":"Marine Gas Oil","description":"Marine Gas Oil (MGO) is a distillate marine fuel similar in quality and composition to diesel fuel, with a very low sulphur content – typically no more than 0.1 percent. This means MGO meets the strict limits applying in Emission Control Areas (ECA) such as the North Sea and Baltic Sea, where many vessels bunker it instead of heavy fuel oil or VLSFO. Because MGO requires more elaborate refining, its bunker price is well above that of conventional residual fuels, and every oil price spike hits it","inDefinedTermSet":{"@type":"DefinedTermSet","name":"Frachtportal Logistics Glossary","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/glossary"},"url":"https://www.freight-academy.com/en/glossary/marine-gas-oil","inLanguage":"en","dateModified":"2026-07-24T22:35:17.518644","citation":"https://market-insights.upply.com/en/low-sulfur-regulations-the-impact-on-maritime-shipping-prices","markdownMirror":"https://www.freight-academy.com/api/md/glossary/en/marine-gas-oil","provider":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Frachtportal","url":"https://www.freight-academy.com"},"quickSummary":"Marine Gas Oil · Marine Gas Oil (MGO) is a distillate marine fuel similar in quality and composition to diesel fuel, with a very low sulphur content – typically no more than 0.1 percent. · Quelle: https://market-insights.upply.com/en/low-sulfur-regulations-the-impact-on-maritime-shipping-prices"}
