Residual Fuel Oil Supplies 

Dear Robert: 

Enclosed are two tables which summarize residual fuel oil supplies 

for the last five years. These tables show that domestic production and 

imports of very low sulfur residual fuel oil (<0.3% sulfur) have remained 

relatively steady. However, domestic production and imports of medium 

and high sulfur residual fuel oil have declined significantly since 

1981. Demand for residual fuel oil has declined in the commercial, 

industrial and electric utility sectors. 

Most of the very low sulfur residual fuel oil imports enter the 

U.S. at New York or New Jersey (because of local low sulfur emissions 

regulations), with about 10-20 percent entering the U.S. at Texas. 

There are many foreign suppliers of very low sulfur residual fuel oil. 

The largest foreign suppliers recently have been Algeria, Virgin Islands, 

Venezuela, Brazil and the Bahamas. 

Very low sulfur residual fuel oil is produced on the east coast, 

midwest, Gulf coast and west coast. However, imports of very low sulfur 

residual fuel oil are much larger than domestic production.
