FUEL-QUALITY TESTING HELPS RELIABLE OPERATION

The article outlines a fuel quality testing service which, it is claimed, carries out 70% of all marine bunker analysis, testing and reporting. The system is particularly valuable to cruise ships whose schedules afford no margin for engine breakdown, nor time off for offloading and replacing unsatisfactory fuel, so the availability of a swift and accurate fuel-quality testing service is paramount.
