Cylinder lubrication must adapt to a multi-fuel reality

The impending accelaration of decarbonization efforts to Meer the IMO's 2050 targets is expected also to speed up the development of new more environmentally-friendly engine designs. Aside from the very low sulphur fuels, engines of the future are expected to be powered by a number of alternative fuels as well including methanol, LPG, biofuels and even ammonia. However, for the switch from high sulphur fuel oil to fuels of the future to run smoothly, ships' engines have to run smoothly as well. And the key to having all engine cylinders running is efficient cylinder lubrication. More information: Offshore Energy
