Diesel Fuel Additive for Captains: The Benefits of V25
For Captains, fuel management ultimately comes down to confidence. The vessel needs to be ready to operate, the engineering team needs reliable fuel, and preventable fuel problems shouldn’t interfere with the programme.
Using a diesel fuel additive for Captains such as V25 provides a simple, preventative approach to fuel management, helping maintain fuel condition from tank to funnel.
Greater Confidence When Bunkering
International vessels can take on fuel from different suppliers, ports and regions throughout the year.
Even when fuel meets the required specification, its composition, storage history and characteristics can vary between bunkers.
V25 provides a consistent treatment strategy wherever fuel is taken onboard, helping support fuel stability, manage water and contamination, and maintain cleaner fuel systems.
The bunker may change. Your approach to managing it doesn’t have to.
Helping Prevent Fuel Related Disruption
Water, sludge, deposits and microbial contamination can contribute to blocked filters, additional maintenance and unwanted operational problems.
V25 is designed for continuous preventative use rather than simply reacting once a problem has developed.
For Captains, that means another layer of protection against fuel-related issues disrupting the vessel’s programme.
Supporting Your Engineering Team
V25 combines several fuel-management benefits within one highly concentrated treatment.
It helps support fuel stability, water management, lubricity, fuel-system and injector cleanliness, atomisation and cleaner combustion.
V25 is also non-hazardous, vegetal-derived, ashless and metal-free, making it straightforward for crew to store, handle and dose onboard.
Cleaner Combustion
V25 supports improved atomisation and more complete combustion, helping reduce smoke and particulate emissions.
This can be particularly valuable on superyachts and passenger vessels, where visible smoke and soot aren’t just engineering concerns, they can affect the appearance of the vessel and the experience onboard.
Simple Preventative Fuel Management
V25’s standard dosage is just 1 litre per 10,000 litres of fuel, meaning relatively small quantities can treat substantial bunker volumes.
For an initial treatment or enhanced preventative programme, Premier Fuel Solutions commonly recommends a double dose of 1 litre per 5,000 litres.
Once established, V25 can simply become part of the vessel’s normal bunkering routine.
A Diesel Fuel Additive for Captains
Reliable fuel supports a reliable vessel.
Using V25 as a diesel fuel additive for Captains provides a straightforward way to help protect stored fuel, support the engineering department, promote cleaner combustion and reduce the likelihood of fuel-related problems interfering with operations.
