How to reduce the cost of blending marine diesel

2015-06-26View Original

Thread Content

Diesel for fishing boats – for those fishing boats that are 30 to 40 meters long, which type is best, as it can help reduce costs? Using grade 3 diesel or higher is certainly convenient for ships, but the cost is high – it’s quite luxurious! Mixing grade 3 diesel with biodiesel can help reduce costs a bit, but it seems that biodiesel can be used at most in a 20% concentration. At the current price of biodiesel, this results in a savings of only about 100 yuan per ton compared to using grade 3 diesel directly. There is some \"marine diesel\" available at a relatively low price; compared to National Standard 3, it costs 300-400 yuan less per ton, but it’s not clear how it will perform in actual use. I would like to ask the experienced colleagues: are there any other ways to reduce this oil consumption cost? Of course, this is on the condition that normal use is ensured. Thank you all~~!

Our company also has a dedicated plant for blending fuels. Reducing the costs associated with blending isn’t something that can be explained in just a few words; it depends on the proportions and prices of various types of fuel. In my opinion, safety is the most important factor. In the past, we had an accident due to improper blending of marine fuel

Small fishing boats can’t use heavy diesel~~
