Total Lubmarine commences new feed rate optimisation programme

TOTAL Lubmarine, a global marine lubricant supplier, is launching a new feed rate optimisation programme created for the latest generation of two stroke marine diesel engines through the combined and regular analysis of lube, drain and system oils.

The service offers customers method to managed long-term engine maintenance through ongoing monitoring activities.



The programme is designed to give ship operators a complete and ongoing picture of the condition of their engines to prevent corrosion and wear as well as deliver reduced levels of lube consumption and operating expenses, a company statement said.



"This service goes well beyond spot testing and allows each customer to anticipate any future problems as well as create a unique engine specific lubricant strategy under the guidance of our skilled engineers," said OEM relationships manager Nikolaos Kotakis.



"All OEM guidelines recommend careful engine monitoring, and our sophisticated intelligence-led approach allows for the most prudent management of two stroke marine engines possible."



The new service will consist of a regular analysis of drain and system oil by Total Lubmarine engineers and will be combined with Total Lubmarine's Diagomar Plus laboratory based lube oil analysis which examines residual BN, kinematic viscosity, insolubles, water content, PQ index, oxidation, iron and other metal content.
