What fuel does a ship use like a ferry cargo ship etc?

[Edit]
Many ships use MDO or Marine Diesel Oil, sometimes also known as #2 Diesel.

Ships can also use HFO or Heavy Fuel Oil or Bunker C. These are crude oil derivatives that are largely unrefined. They are very thick and need to be heated by steam in order to reduce its viscosity to allow them to flow.
