Mobilgard™ 5100 cylinder oil and Mobil Serv℠ Cylinder Condition Monitoring ended cold corrosion
APL, a leading provider of global container shipping services, discovered that its MAN Mark 9.2 engines were suffering from significant levels of cold corrosion. Its MAN Mark 7 and Wärtsilä RTA engines were also affected although at lower levels. Mobil Serv℠ Cylinder Condition Monitoring data was used to assess cylinder oil needs and feed rates.
The MAN Mark 9.2 engines were switched to Mobilgard™ 5100 cylinder oil and benefited from reduced cold corrosion and an 18.5% reduction of cylinder oil consumption. Analysis of the MAN Mark 7 and Wärtsilä RTA engines, which were running Mobilgard™ 570, enabled a 7% overall feed rate cut.
