The integrity of marine and offshore based components is vital due to the harsh and demanding environment they work in. Ottor Global Services’ Lubricant Quality Scan (LQS) provides the marine industry with a full engineering interpretation of lubricant quality testing data, providing the client with a comprehensive test report on both the condition of the lubricating oil and health of the machinery.
We also carry out maritime engine and power system lubricant tests, for shipping and offshore marine clients.
Typical lubricants evaluation and testing reports for ship engines and other machinery:
- Viscosity
- Insolubles
- Flashpoint
- TBN/AN
- Water Content
- Wear Metal Tests include:
- PQ Index
- Fibre Count
- Contamination
- Oil Cleanliness
- Wear Metals Testing
High levels of wear particles may give advance warning of possible engine malfunction, allowing early remedial action to be taken. A good overall wear metals results suggest no undue wearing is taking place, and the operator may extend the interval between services or the life of the oil charge, thus reducing ship operating costs and the environmental problems associated with waste oil disposal.
