PETRONAS Industrial Solutions: Marine

The marine industry is currently facing several challenges including:

• Stricter environmental regulations: Industry players are anticipated to play a significant role in combating climate change, primarily by reducing carbon emissions. 

• Harsh operating environment: Marine vessels operate in challenging conditions, facing varying temperatures, high pressures, and constant exposure to moisture and seawater.

• Pressure to improve efficiency and reduce costs: The industry is highly competitive, with businesses constantly striving to enhance efficiency and lower operational costs. 

Choosing the appropriate lubricant important as it can result in less downtime, lower maintenance expenses, and improved operational efficiency.  High quality lubricants are crucial in addressing the challenges faced by the marine industry by:

• Extending oil life and reducing maintenance costs: Specially formulated lubricants can prolong oil life and decrease overall maintenance expenses.

• Protecting equipment and improving performance: Lubricants safeguard equipment operating under extreme conditions from wear, corrosion, and deposits.

• Improving efficiency: Well-lubricated machinery operates more efficiently, leading to lower fuel consumption and significant cost savings.

PETRONAS Lubricants International also offers  environmentally acceptable lubricants (EAL) that meet standards of biodegradability and non-toxicity as an alternative to traditional petroleum-based lubricants.
