yeah, mazut is a generic term for low grade fuel. I think here in the US it would mostly be called bunker fuel.

    To be completely fair, the diesel we get here is usually not of a grade that would make it legal in places like the US. I do wonder why a different name stuck here, I think that’s much more interesting than “benzeen” for gasoline
