Several definitions of a semigroup of quotients have been proposed and studied by a number of authors. For a survey, the reader may consult Weinert's paper [8]. The motivation for many of these concepts comes from ring theory and the various notions of rings of quotients. We are concerned in this paper with an analogue of the classical ring of quotients, introduced by Fountain and Petrich in [3].
