Marine Fuels “Tech Talk” Gasoline Diesel Fuel
Gasoline “Automotive” Spark Ignition Fuel
Gasoline Quality • Grades Regular, Mid-Grade, Premium • Quality Octane Detergency Seasonal & Geographical Specs • Formulations (EPA, States, Cities, etc) Straight (100%) Hydrocarbon Oxygenates Alcohol, MTBE Reformulated
Gasoline Quality • • ASTM D-4814 Octane (Antiknock) Rating (R+M/2) Volatility* Reid Vapor Pressure* Distillation* Corrosion Gum Sulfur Stability * Seasonal & Geographic Adjustments
Problems Marine vs. Automotive Small Market <1% of demand • • Higher Engine Speeds & Loads = Wear & Fuel Flow Higher Fuel Consumption = Deposits Higher Compression Ratios = Knock Longer Storage Periods = Stability Hotter Temps = Stability Alcohol & Moisture = Phase Separation Higher Price at the Fuel Dock “POC”
Solutions • Higher Octane (min 89) Prevent Knock & Deposits • More Detergency Prevent Deposits Injectors, carbs, combustion chambers, piston heads • Antiwear Additive Prevent VSR, Loss of Compression • Moisture Control Prevent Phase Separation (alcohol) • Justification for Higher Price Higher Quality Marine Fuel
Solutions • Engine Cleanliness Marine Engine Injector Cleaner Carbon Free (2 cycle) Marine Engine Decarbonizer • Moisture Fuel Dri (dispersant/emulsifier) • Stability Fuel Stabilizer • Antiwear Lead Substitute • Bacteria Biocide (gasoline grade)
Solutions • Fuel Additives (marine grade) • Marine Grade Gasoline Enhanced Detergent Package Moisture Control Stabilizer Antiwear
Diesel Fuel Quality ASTM D-975 • Cetane (min 40) • Gravity • Flash Point, Distillation • Cloud Point & Pour Point • Viscosity • Water & Sediment • Sulfur (high, low, ultra low) • Carbon Residue • Corrosion • Storage Stability • Ash Dye (taxable, non-taxable)
• Grades Diesel Fuel Quality No. 1 Diesel, Kero, Jet Fuel, Heating Oil No. 2 Diesel, Heating Oil Premium Diesel, Premium Heating Oil Specs: NCWM, EMA, none • Quality Cetane (40 min for diesel) Gravity (Btu) Sulfur Detergency Stability • Formulations HSD, LSD, ULSD Biodiesel
Diesel Fuel Problems Today’s Diesel Fuel • • • Poor cold weather operability = gelling Holds more water = rust, injector damage Less stable = sludge, plugged filters More deposits = poor performance, economy Reduced lubricity = injector wear Micro-bio contamination = plugged filters Bacteria, mold, algae, yeast
Diesel Fuel Problems Marine vs. Trucks • Longer storage & inactivity = smoke, stability, bacteria • • • More moisture = sludge, plugged filters, bacteria Higher storage temp = sludge, bacteria Higher fuel flow rate = injector deposits Lower quality (HSD) = smoke, odor, soot “POC”
Micro-Bio Contamination Problem • Bacteria Produces Slime, Sludge & Acids That Plug Filters and Cause Corrosion of Fuel Systems Bacteria Strands Seen Under Microscope Bacteria Caused Corrosion
Solutions Diesel Additive Technology • • Cold Flow Improver Deicer Cetane Improver Detergent / Dispersant Stability Improver Rust/Corrosion Inhibitor Lubricity Improver Biocide
Solutions • Higher Cetane (45 min) • Premium Diesel Additive Detergent (L-10 Superior) Lubricity Improver Stabilizer Rust Inhibitor Moisture Control • Biocide
Solutions • Diesel Fuel Additives (marine grade) • Marine Premium Diesel Cetane Improver Premium Diesel Package Biocide
Stop Micro-Bio Contamination
Marketing Marine Fuels What is the Right Fuel Grade and Brand? …. for Your Marina? …. for Your Customers?
Marketing Marine Fuel Choosing the Right Supplier • Distributor Service Equipment (safety) Support & People Brands Offered • Fuel Supplier (brand) Fuel Quality (automotive or marine) Advertising & Marketing Support -Ads -Signage, Literature
Marketing Marine Fuels Choosing the Right Grade and Brand • • Fuel Quality & Performance Economics, Margin & Profit Unbranded Automotive Brand Marine Fuel Brand • basis + 5 to 9 cents + 2 to 3 cents Customer Satisfaction Performance Maintenance and Additional Cost of Additives Complaints of Overcharging
