Slideshow: Major findings of EAL study

Slideshow: Major findings of EAL study

10 Oct 2019by DNV GL Maritime
To better understand how environmentally acceptable lubricants (EALs) perform compared to traditional mineral oils commonly used in stern tube bearings, DNV GL initiated a joint development project together with marine insurers. While investigating the viscosity properties of various EALs available on the market, the study has so far identified two main aspects where the tested biodegradable lubricants behave differently when compared with a reference mineral oil: pressure-related and
