GAS OIL – Also known as Red DieselAgricultural Diesel35 Second OilTractor Diesel, or simply as (slang) 'Ruby', 'Cherry’ or ‘Red’. This is the fuel mainly used by off-road agricultural vehicles and machinery. It is usually more expensive than Kerosene, but is significantly cheaper than ordinary road diesel. 

 

Please note that following changes that took effect from 1st April 2022, some of the sectors that used to be able to use rebated red diesel can no longer do so and must use DERV or other alternatives instead.

If, prior to 1st April 2022, you were using red diesel in machinery, generators or for heating purposes in the following sectors you are likley to be one of the sector affected by the changes. ie.

  • Construction, mining, and quarrying
  • Manufacturing
  • Plant hire, transportation/ logistics, waste management
  • Highway maintenance
  • Airport activities
  • Ports and harbor activities

From the 1st April 2022 we will only be able to supply red diesel to your business if the application is for the sole purpose of the following:

  • Agriculture, horticulture, forestry, and fishing
  • Flood and snow clearance including gritters
  • Propulsion of passenger, freight, and maintenance vehicles on rails
  • Propulsion of commercial boats including passenger ferries and water freight
  • The powering of machinery (including caravans) of travelling fairs and circuses
  • Non-commercial heating in homes, places of worship, NHS hospitals, townhalls and permanently moored houseboats
  • Amateur sports clubs and community sports centres, golf courses (including activities such as ground maintenance, and the heating and lighting of clubhouses, changing rooms etc.)
