March Newsletter

This month we discuss why keeping your oil clean has never been so important. As Investigators & Consultants, we see many lubrication derived damages and reliability issues which could have been avoided.

In recent years, engine manufacturers have been required to reduce the levels of nitrogen oxide (NOx) in diesel engine exhaust gases to meet current emission regulations. In part, this has been achieved by costly changes in engine design that include retarding the timing, raising the piston rings, selective catalytic reduction and the use of exhaust gas recirculating (EGR).

We believe using Hydrodiesel, a fuel which offers greater improvements and reduced costs, is a simple and readily available solution that can be produced at sea and doesn’t affect the lubrication properties of the engine.

January 2020 has been set as the implementation date for a significant global reduction in the Sulphur content of the fuel oil used by ships. At Maktec we support a simple approach of operating existing diesel engines on hybrid fuels such as HydroDiesel to drastically reduce harmful exhaust emissions and the use of ultra-low friction quality lubricants to increase mechanical efficiency. Our customers are seeing major savings in the form of less fuel, oil, maintenance and extended machinery life.

Maktec are the Global Dealer for HydroDiesel, the fuel that powers the mighty Team Britannia’s Power Boat FPT Engines. Keep up to date with the latest news and follow Team Britannia’s circumnavigation world record attempt here: http://www.teambritannia.co.uk
