NameTrade Standards (Fuel Standard) Order 2007
DescriptionThe Trade Standards (Fuel Standards) Order 2007, alongside its Amendment, establishes comprehensive regulations governing the production, importation, sale, and use of fuel in Fiji. Administered by the Department of National Trade Measurement and Standards (DNTMS), the Order specifies stringent quality parameters for various fuel types, including petrol, automotive diesel, biodiesel, and ethanol. The amendment introduced significant reductions in sulfur content, lowering diesel from 500 ppm to 10 ppm and unleaded petrol from 500 ppm to 50 ppm. These measures aim to enhance environmental protection, improve engine performance, and align Fiji's fuel standards with international best practices.
CommentsThe Order also mandates compliance with ASTM and IP testing methods to ensure fuel quality and safety. Through these regulations, Fiji seeks to promote sustainable energy practices, safeguard public health, and support the efficient functioning of the nation's transportation sector.
