According to an article published in Ship&Bunker, Fuel additives manager Innospec has released its new suite of new bunker fuel additives for the marine and bunker fuel market.
Products’ Aim
The new Trident products are aimed at improving the flow properties and operability of ULSFO and VLSFO fuels.
Among the properties the product offer are greater detergency, sediment reduction, and filter plugging prevention, Innospec says.
Strategic Accounts Director’s Words
“The industry has learned a great deal since the new IMO 2020 regulations were introduced and has realized that basic compliance is not enough,” said Sara Logue, Innospec’s Director of Strategic Accounts.
“We are very excited to introduce the Trident product line to help fuel blenders and suppliers move beyond the challenges of compliance and focus on providing superior quality fuels at improved economics.”
New VLSFO Fuels
While the introduction of the new VLSFO Fuels has been an unquestionable success, issues with sediment levels and cold flow have been prominent where quality problems have been reported.
