Flowdata

FuelCom net fuel monitoring system from Flowdata is designed to provide temperature compensat- ed fuel monitoring for diesel engines used in marine propulsion and onboard power generation.

For recirculating fuel systems.

FuelCom uses displacement flowmeters to prevent engine fuel- oil starvation and non-intrusive sensors to monitor the flow rate of both the supply and return sides, with the temperature-compensat- ed difference providing a net burn measurement. For non-recirculat- ing systems, a positive displace- ment flowmeter and sensor moni- tors the supply side only.

Mobil Offers Internet-Based

Global Analysis Program

PFA Inter-Link from Mobil is reportedly the first global analysis program to use the Internet to deliver anlaysis results to a cus- tomer's land-based computer.

With the new software program, international shipping companies can receive, review and respond to time-critical PFA information in record time. Mobil has enhanced the program to allow users to view, print and store their entire fleets' most current lubrication charts and print out PFA sample bottle labels at their own offices.

Also available from Mobil is

Mobilgard 450 NC, a non-chlorine, non-zinc marine lubricant for heavily loaded EMD engines oper- ating under severe load conditions.

Mobilgard 570 is a high-perfor- mance cylinder oil for modern crosshead diesel engines operating under the most severe conditions and using high suffer content fuels.

Reducing Bunker Price

Uncertainty

Closer ties between BP Marine and its international trading func- tion are designed to help ship own- ers reduce the exposure and price uncertainty they face in the bunker market. Voltaile oil prices lead to large fluctuation in bunker prices, resulting in difficuties for ship owners in regard to cost con- trol. As a global supplier of marine fuels and a global trader of risk managment instruments, BP can provide its customers with physi- cal fuel at a fixed price. "From conversations with our customers we recognized that some wanted to exert greater con- trol over bunker prices without having to participate directly in the 'paper' markets. With two dis- tinct parts of BP working in uni- son, we can provide a much broad- er offer ... Risk management is about finding and securing the appropriate level of risk for each individual business," said Robert

Lawson of BP's Risk Management group.
