"fuel oils" is unfortunately a very generic description of a sample, same for "dimers, trimers, ...". The definition for fuel oil says, that it has a carbon number between 11 and 20, with a possible extension to 26 and is normally a mineral oil.
Some questions need to be answered before there can be any kind of suggestion:
What kind of fuel oil do you mean? Mineral oil-based, biodiesel-like, etc.?
As for the oligomers: do you mean acid oligomers and if yes, what are the expected length of the side-chains.
Are the oligomers linked by in-chain-groups and what are the expected side chain-lengths?
I assume the sample is only soluble in some organic solvents?
What would be the estimated max. molecular weight?
Does it need to be LC or could it also be GC?
Please give us a little more insight into the analysis and the sample.
