Shell uses base fuels accessed locally to produce ULSD and the composition of these base fuels meets the needs of local legislation. As there are differences in both refining capability and government regulation, there are market-to-market variations in base fuels. The products designed for SG take into account the local market requirements. Nonetheless, all of these markets are supplied with ULSD that meets the emission requirements of Euro4 diesel for less than 50ppm sulphur content.
