The world trade with the marine fuels is currently undergoing some substantial changes which will need new methods for the analysis of fuel samples. The good methodology for the evaluation of marine fuels stability as well as its compatibility is mandatory to ensure the clean and environmentally friendly fuel for its further processing. The most widely used method for assessment of the marine fuels stability is the total sediments (TS/TSP/TSA) measurement. However, this method presents its limitations. So, the improvement of results by the assessment of colloidal stability is highly recommended. This method could be adapted depending on the chemical character and composition of the sample.
