EN590 10ppm diesel is one of the most traded petroleum products in Europe, Africa, and Asia. But sourcing it reliably can be difficult.

In this guide, we’ll cover:

  • What EN590 10ppm diesel is and why it’s in demand
  • Its technical specifications
  • Key supply hubs and logistics options
  • How pricing is determined
  • How to verify a legitimate supplier

This is written specifically for fuel buyers, mandates, and traders who need actionable information before entering a deal.

What is EN590 10ppm Diesel?

EN590 refers to the European diesel standard for automotive fuel. 10ppm means the diesel contains just 10 parts per million of sulfur, making it an ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) that meets strict EU emissions regulations.

It’s widely required for:

  • Road transport (cars, trucks, buses)
  • Industrial machinery with modern engines
  • Countries adopting Euro 5 & Euro 6 emission standards

Why it matters: Many ports and customs authorities now reject high-sulfur diesel. If you’re importing into Europe or regions aligning with EU standards, EN590 10ppm is the only acceptable grade.

Where is EN590 Sourced and Stored?

Major supply hubs for EN590 diesel:

  • Rotterdam, Netherlands → Europe’s largest refined fuel terminal
  • Fujairah, UAE → key hub for Africa & Asia
  • Houston, USA → used for both North & South America
  • Jurong, Singapore → ideal for SE Asian buyers

Buyers can lift fuel FOB (Free on Board) at these terminals or arrange CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight) delivery to their destination port.

How is EN590 Pricing Determined?

The price of EN590 diesel is linked to Platts or Argus indexes plus logistics premiums. It fluctuates daily based on:

  • Global crude oil prices
  • Terminal location (Rotterdam vs Fujairah pricing differs)
  • Delivery method (FOB cheaper, CIF includes freight/insurance)
  • Contract size (larger volumes get better pricing)

How to Verify a Real Supplier

Unfortunately, the diesel market has many intermediaries and fraudulent offers. To ensure your supplier is legitimate:

  1. Request refinery allocation proof – real allocations are issued by refiners or terminal operators.
  2. Ask for terminal Tank Storage Receipt (TSR) – this confirms product availability.
  3. Insist on POP (Proof of Product) – SGS reports, dip tests, commercial invoice.
  4. Use secure banking (SBLC, LC, escrow) – never send unsecured prepayments.
