About Kerosene. Kerosene (a.k.a. Paraffin Oil) is a hydrocarbon mixed fuel, containing mostly paraffins but also 7-8% aromatic content. It is a pale yellow or colorless liquid that is mainly obtained from crude oil as a specific fractional distillate. It is also possible to produce kerosene by distillation of coal and oil shale. Because of its use in lamps, kerosene was the major refinery product for several decades until the advent of the electric lamp in 1878. It is still used as fuel in aviation, especially in highly refined grades.

<p><b>About Kerosene Prices.</b> Kerosene, also known as paraffin oil, is a type of liquid fuel that is mainly used as fuel for jet and rocket engines, fuel for heating and lighting.</p><p>The price of kerosene is influenced by various factors, including the global demand for crude oil and refining costs since kerosene is mainly obtained from crude oil as a specific fractional distillate. Transportation expenses can also influence kerosene prices, particularly in regions where kerosene must be transported long distances to reach consumers. Kerosene is primarily produced in refineries and must be transported to end-users, such as homes and airports. The cost of transportation, including the price of crude oil and the cost of shipping, can impact the final price of kerosene.</p><p>In this context, having access to reliable price data is crucial in a wide range of situations, such as studies on logistics costs, development of feasibility studies, screening and assessing investment options.</p>
