One of the biggest challenges facing any ship owner is the balancing act between engine efficiency, fuel costs and compliance with environmental legislation. Multiple future fuel scenarios makes the today’s choice of solutions even more important. You need a fuel conditioning solution which will supply your engine with right fuel at the right time, with the right conditions met to keep everything running smoothly.

Meeting today’s challenges

Emissions legislation

In order to comply with the 2020 sulphur cap, the owners have a wide range of fuels available, and what convenient today might not be the best choice for tomorrow. The sooner you can secure fuel flexibility, the better.

Fuel changeover process

Most ships work with more than one fuel type to allow them to more easily meet emissions demands, but switching between fuels can be hazardous and costly.
