[Stoves] Can anyone identify the manufacturer of this stove?

[Robert Taylor]

I don't know about the DRC but (to my understanding) in France "pétrole" 
usually means petroleum (crude oil) but can also be short for "pétrole 
lampant" ("lamp oil") which is kerosene (specifically, the lighter grade 
of kerosene as used for lanterns). "Essence" is gasoline and "gazole" 
(formerly "gas-oil") is diesel.

In UK English "petrol" means gasoline and "paraffin" means kerosene.
