“I am pleased to inform you that we have used Castrol Biobar 46 in our vessel “Africa Dreams” and have obtained an excellent result in respect of this hydraulic Bio oil performance. Castrol Biobar 46 is biodegradable hydraulic oil which has been operating in Arneson Trimable & Steering Propeller Shaft hydraulic cylinders. After more than 3000 nautical miles, Castrol Biobar 46 has showed an excellent performance on this high rated hydraulic system, keeping equipment operating at maximum efficiency, providing less maintenance and extended oil life. Castrol Biobar 46 has added value to vessel operation, also providing us excellent confidence about minimum possible environmental impact.”

“We can confirm we have used Octamar BT6 that is a dispersant/stabilizer continuously since February 2009 on all our Vessels. The reasons for using this type of additive was to help improve operating conditions, maintain engine reliability and reduce costs associated with high sludge generation experienced on our vessels.

Our experience using the additive has been quite positive with noticeable improvements in 50% sludge reduction. We have recorded no detrimental effects, application or handling issues using the additive.”
