Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 8217 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 28, Petroleum products and lubricants,
Subcommittee SC 4, Classifications and specifications.
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 8217:2005), which has been technically revised.

Introduction
0.1 General
The specifications in this International Standard were prepared in co-operation with ship owners, ship
operators, shipping associations, national standards bodies, classification societies, fuel testing services,
engine designers, fuel suppliers and the petroleum industry to meet the requirements for fuels supplied on a
world-wide basis for consumption on board ships. Crude oil supplies, refining methods, ships' machinery,
environmental legislation and local conditions vary considerably. These factors have led historically to a large
number of categories of residual fuels being available internationally, even though locally or nationally there
can be relatively few categories available.
0.2 Classification
The categories of fuel in this International Standard have been classified in accordance with ISO 8216-1.
0.3 International statutory requirements
[1]
This International Standard takes into account the SOLAS Convention in respect of the allowable minimum
flash point of fuels.
[2]
The Revised MARPOL Annex VI , which controls air pollution from ships, includes a requirement either that
the fuel not exceed specified maximum sulfur content or that an approved equivalent alternative be used.
During the lifetime of this International Standard, regional and/or national bodies can introduce their own local
[3]
emission requirements, which can impact the allowable sulfur content, for example EU Sulfur Directive . It is
the users’ responsibility to establish the requirement to comply with such statutory requirements and to specify
the maximum sulfur content of the fuel to the supplier.
0.4 Changes from ISO 8217:2005
This fourth edition of this International Standard reflects several important and significant changes. These
include category rationalizations of both distillate and residual fuels and substantial amendments to Clause 5.
These changes reflect market demand, recognize regulatory developments and current industry experiences
with the use of fuels.
The limits contained in Tables 1 and 2 now reflect the test method reporting requirements. For example,
viscosity limits are given to four significant figures.
a) Changes to the distillate fuels (4 categories) include the following.
⎯ An additional grade, DMZ, has been added with a minimum viscosity of 3,000 mm /s at 40 °C, but is
otherwise identical in its characteristics to the DMA.
⎯ The previous DMC category has been modified and moved to Table 2 as RMA10.
⎯ Specifications for the following characteristics have been added to Table 1: hydrogen sulfide, acid
number, oxidation stability and lubricity.
⎯ The minimum viscosity requirement for DMA has been raised to 2,000 mm /s.
⎯ A minimum viscosity requirement of 2,000 mm /s has been added for DMB.
⎯ The specifications for the “appearance” characteristic in Table 1 have been amended.
b) Changes to the residual fuels (6 categories) include the following.
⎯ RMA 10 has been added.
⎯ RMG and RMK have been expanded to include additional viscosity grades.
⎯ RMF and RMH categories have been removed.
⎯ To Table 2 have been added the Calculated Carbon Aromaticity Index (CCAI) and specifications for
the following characteristics: hydrogen sulfide, acid number and sodium content.
⎯ Sulfur limits have not been tabulated, as these are controlled by statutory requirements. See 0.3 and
Annex C.
⎯ Potential Total Sediment (TSP) has been assigned as the reference test method. Accelerated Total
Sediment (TSA) has been added as an alternative test method.
⎯ Ash limit values have been reduced for many of the categories.
⎯ Vanadium limit values have been reduced, with the exceptions of those for RMB 30 where the limit
value is unchanged and for RMG 380 where the limit value has been slightly increased.
⎯ Aluminium-plus-silicon limit values have been reduced.
⎯ The criteria for assessing whether a fuel contains used lubricating oil have been amended.
c) Changes to the informative annexes include the following.
⎯ Amendments have been made to a number of the annexes.
⎯ Annex C of the previous edition, dealing with viscosity conversions, has been deleted.
⎯ The equations dealing with specific energy in Annex E of this new edition have been revised and a
gross specific energy equation for distillate fuel has been added.
⎯ Four new annexes have been added:
⎯ Annex A, dealing with bio-derived products;
⎯ Annex B, dealing with deleterious materials;
⎯ Annex C, dealing with sulfur content;
⎯ Annex D, dealing with hydrogen sulfide.

Avant-propos
L'ISO (Organisation internationale de normalisation) est une fédération mondiale d'organismes nationaux de
normalisation (comités membres de l'ISO). L'élaboration des Normes internationales est en général confiée
aux comités techniques de l'ISO. Chaque comité membre intéressé par une étude a le droit de faire partie du
comité technique créé à cet effet. Les organisations internationales, gouvernementales et non
gouvernementales, en liaison avec l'ISO participent également aux travaux. L'ISO collabore étroitement avec
la Commission électrotechnique internationale (CEI) en ce qui concerne la normalisation électrotechnique.
Les Normes internationales sont rédigées conformément aux règles données dans les Directives ISO/CEI,
Partie 2.
La tâche principale des comités techniques est d'élaborer les Normes internationales. Les projets de Normes
internationales adoptés par les comités techniques sont soumis aux comités membres pour vote. Leur
publication comme Normes internationales requiert l'approbation de 75 % au moins des comités membres
votants.
L'attention est appelée sur le fait que certains des éléments du présent document peuvent faire l'objet de
droits de propriété intellectuelle ou de droits analogues. L'ISO ne saurait être tenue pour responsable de ne
pas avoir identifié de tels droits de propriété et averti de leur existence.

Introduction
0.1 Généralités
Les spécifications de la présente Norme internationale ont été préparées en collaboration avec les armateurs,
exploitants de compagnies maritimes, associations maritimes, bureaux de normalisation nationaux, sociétés
de classification et d'analyse des combustibles (bureaux de contrôle), les concepteurs de moteurs, les
fournisseurs de combustible et l'industrie pétrolière, en vue de répondre aux exigences relatives aux
combustibles pour la marine qui sont livrés aux navires dans le monde entier, pour utilisation à bord. Les
fournitures de pétrole brut, les techniques de raffinage, les machineries des navires, la législation
environnementale ainsi que les conditions locales varient considérablement. Il en résulte à l'échelle
internationale l'existence d'un grand nombre de catégories de combustibles résiduels, même si ce nombre
peut rester relativement bas au niveau local ou national.
0.2 Classification
Les catégories de combustibles citées dans la présente Norme internationale ont été classées conformément
à l'ISO 8216-1.
0.3 Exigences des règlements internationaux
[1]
La présente Norme internationale prend en compte la convention SOLAS en ce qui concerne le point
d'éclair minimal autorisé pour les combustibles pour la marine.
[2]
L'annexe VI révisée de la convention MARPOL , qui contrôle la pollution de l'air par les navires, comporte
l'exigence soit d'utiliser un combustible qui ne dépasse pas une teneur en soufre maximale spécifiée, soit
d'adopter un moyen alternatif équivalent autorisé. Durant la période d'application de la présente Norme
internationale, des organisations régionales et/ou nationales peuvent introduire localement leurs propres
exigences en matière d'émissions, ce qui peut influencer la teneur en soufre autorisée, par exemple la
[3]
directive européenne sur le soufre . Il est de la responsabilité de l'utilisateur de vérifier qu'il satisfait bien de
telles exigences réglementaires et de spécifier au fournisseur la teneur maximale en soufre du combustible.
0.4 Modifications par rapport à l'ISO 8217:2005
La quatrième édition de la présente Norme internationale comporte plusieurs modifications importantes et
significatives, en particulier une rationalisation des catégories aussi bien des distillats que des combustibles
résiduels. L'Article 5 est notablement amendé. Ces changements reflètent la demande du marché et prennent
en compte les développements réglementaires et l'expérience actuelle de l'industrie dans l'utilisation des
combustibles pour la marine.
Les valeurs limites données dans les Tableaux 1 et 2 reflètent maintenant les exigences de rapport des
méthodes d'essai. Par exemple, les limites de viscosité sont maintenant données avec quatre chiffres
significatifs.
a) Les changements concernant les distillats pour la marine (4 catégories) sont les suivants.
⎯ Le grade DMZ a été rajouté avec une viscosité minimale de 3,000 mm /s à 40 °C, les autres
caractéristiques étant identiques par ailleurs à celles du grade DMA.
⎯ Le grade précédent DMC a été modifié et déplacé dans le Tableau 2 sous l'appellation RMA 10.
⎯ Des spécifications ont été ajoutées au Tableau 1 pour les caractéristiques suivantes: hydrogène sulfuré,
indice d'acide, stabilité à l'oxydation et lubrifiance.
⎯ L'exigence de viscosité minimale pour la catégorie DMA a été augmentée à 2,000 mm /s.
⎯ Une exigence de viscosité minimale à 2,000 mm /s a été ajoutée pour la catégorie DMB.
⎯ La spécification en terme d'aspect, dans le Tableau 1, a été modifiée.
b) Les changements concernant les combustibles résiduels (6 catégories ou grades) sont les suivants.
⎯ Un grade RMA 10 a été ajouté.
⎯ Les catégories RMG et RMK ont été étendues avec de nouveaux grades de viscosité
⎯ Les catégories RMF et RMH ont été supprimées
⎯ Les caractéristiques suivantes ont été ajoutées au Tableau 2: indice de carbone aromatique calculé
(CCAI), hydrogène sulfuré, indice d'acide et teneur en sodium.
⎯ Aucune valeur limite de teneur soufre n'est donnée car cette caractéristique fait l'objet de spécifications
réglementaires. Voir 0.3 et l'Annexe C.
⎯ La teneur en sédiments totaux potentiels (TSP) est désignée comme méthode de référence. La teneur en
sédiments potentiels accélérés (TSA) a été ajoutée comme méthode d'essai alternative.
⎯ Les valeurs limites des teneurs en cendres ont été diminuées pour la plupart des catégories.
⎯ Les valeurs limites des teneurs en vanadium ont été généralement diminuées, à l'exception du grade
RMB 30, pour lequel elle reste inchangée, et du grade RMG 380, pour lequel elle a été légèrement
augmentée.
⎯ Les valeurs limites du paramètre «aluminium plus silicium» ont été diminuées.
⎯ Les critères permettant de juger si un combustible contient des huiles lubrifiantes usagées ont été
modifiés.
c) Les changements suivants ont été apportés aux annexes informatives.
⎯ Des modifications ont été introduites pour nombre d'annexes.
⎯ L'Annexe C de la précédente édition, relative aux conversions de viscosité, a été supprimée.
⎯ Dans l'Annexe E de la présente édition, les équations relatives à l'énergie spécifique ont été révisées et
une équation sur l'énergie spécifique brute des distillats pour la marine a été ajoutée.
⎯ Quatre nouvelles annexes ont été ajoutées:
⎯ l'Annexe A sur les produits d'origine biologiques;
⎯ l'Annexe B sur les contaminants;
⎯ l'Annexe C sur la teneur en soufre;
⎯ l'Annexe D sur l'hydrogène sulfuré.
