BUNKER D DELI LIVERY N Y NOTE TE N7 N7
Clea ear a and Bright Clear & Bright (distillate only) • Sample each tank/barge/truck • FROM THE BOTTOM!!! • Perform visual inspection for: • Sediment and water • If C&B fails: • Reject the fuel • If already started, cease fueling • Master notify Area and Oper. Cmdr. • Annotate BDN that C&B failed • Collect a sample and send to lab with remark “fails to meet C&B” N7 N7
In In-line S Sampling REQUIRED!!! In-line fuel sampling Get equipment Follow Process Maintain your records **On FOLO contract *Not on contract N7 N7
In In-line S Sampling Sampling Process • Draw Primary • Taken at ship inlet manifold • Continuous drip • 4 Representative Samples • 1 for MARPOL, 1 for vendor • 1 shore-side lab, 1 for re-test • Sealed, labeled and mailed • 4 spots for seals: ship, vendor, surveyor, and other • Ensure information is accurate, fuel type, date, port etc. • WAIT for results N7 N7
In In-line S Sampling Sample Analysis and Results • Lab Receives/Processes-3 days • Results uploaded to FAS • Results assessed, msg sent -2 days • WAIT for results • Could take up to 15 days to see a results msg depending on location N7 N7

Fuel el T Trea eatmen ents AMERSTAT 25 • Biocide Treatment – dose automatically , every fuel evolution • 1 liter per 25 tons of fuel • Distillate fuels only AMERGY XLS • Fuel lubricity additive • 1 liter per 3 tons of fuel • Contains dispersants and detergents • Dosing based on Wearscar reading AMERGIZE • Improves combustion and limits production of deposits • Dosing based on MCR, Ash, Metals and Sediment readings AMERGY 222 • Fuel Oil Conditioner: Minimizes Fuel Instability and Incompatibility • Used for fuels with high ox/stab readings and biodiesel contamination N7 N7
Other er Quality I Issues es Stability: • F-76 stable for minimum of 2 years • Recommend sampling F76 stored greater than 1 year and send to lab for stability testing • MGO/DMA no warranted stability • Recommend sampling MGO stored greater than 6 months and send to lab for stability testing Sulfur Content: • ISO 8217 • DMA 1.0 max • Residual: Regulatory Requirements (MARPOL Annex VI or ECA) • MARPOL Annex VI: • Global 3.5% max (projected to be 0.5% in 2020) • ECA: Baltic Sea, English Channel and North American ECA: 0.1% max N7 N7
Other Quality Issues Sulfur Content (cont): • California Air Resources Board (CARB): • ALL ocean going vessels enroute to a CA port and within 24 nautical miles of the coastline to use low sulfur MGO* • Main engines AND auxiliary engines and boilers (main boilers excluded) Source: CARB Marine Note 2012_1 *Military vessels (including MSC) are exempt, however MSC will comply as much as practical N7 N7
Other er Quality I Issues es Cloud Point • F-76 has a cloud point limit of -0.1 C. • DMA has not cloud point requirement • Most commonly a “problem” in Korea. • Vendors typically sell higher cloud points in summer and lower CPs in winter. • DFSP is best option if it is of primary concern • There is an additive to reduce CP but it is extremely cost inefficient Biodiesel and Biofuel • Not the same thing! VERY different • Biodiesel is unregulated mixing of bio-stocks like Fatty Acid Methyl Ester (FAME) with regular MGOs. Low concentrations have questionable impact. • Biofuel is a fuel with known concentrations of bio-stocks with proven performance. For Example: 50/50 HRD/F-76 • Current USN and MSC Policy is 0% biodiesel/FAME N7 N7
Fuel el Quality T Take e Aways • What are the 3 Tenets to Ensuring Good Quality? • Pre-delivery spec sheet, C&B, In-line sampling/dosing • What is the additive that must be dosed at every bunkering? • AMERSTAT 25 – biocide • What is the global sulfur limit on bunker fuel? • 3.5% • What is an ECA? • Emissions Control Area • Where are the current ECAs? • Baltic Sea, English Channel, North American • What is the sulfur limit in the ECA’s? • 0.1% N7 N7
Fuel el Oil Rec ecord K Keep eeping Record Maintenance • Fuel Samples: • Ship’s MARPOL Sample: Until consumed but not less than 1 year from delivery. • Vendor Sample: 0, give to vendor; Test Sample: 0, mail ASAP • Retest Sample: Until consumed or 90 days after delivery • Bunker Deliver Notes: • BDN’s shall be retained onboard for a period of three years after receipt of bunker fuel. • Fuel Messages: • Same as BDN N7 N7
Common I Issues es: Q Quality Labels • No Labels • Wrong labels • New Contract: Texas Oil Tech • CHASE Supply mailed new labels • Printable Labels are in SAMM and on Portal N7 N7
