HELIOS lubes, High quality lubricants, in relation to the use, are primarily CO2 minimizing machines. Lubricants are exponential tools for saving CO2.
HELIOS lubes prefer CO2-reduced lubricants + coolant manufacturers, with the same technical product performance, (2021-Nov) Basically, the production of lubricants + coolants in the basic production was replaced / supplemented with many different bio / CO2-lowering components, this will lead to this shortly essential lubricants are CO2 reduced, for example already on the market today Glysantin G64 with approx. 83% CO2 saving and many more, for strong CO2 reductions there is a lack of bio / CO2 lower raw materials (note: Glysantin G64 replaces Glysantin G48)

Clean Diesel, Diesel HPR, Crude Blue, Designer Fuel, Synthetic Fuel, Clean Fuel .... different names - same product?
New technologies are produced in lab test (small quantities; ca. 160 litre/day were published) in Germany by Sunfire and Audi. The US EPA got an issue and the general large producers are testing. In general the engine manufacturers and the fuel manufacturer are looking for material testing and producing. Products have to miscible with ULSD / EN 590 Diesel and todays biocomponents. There is the need to establish approvals for all user.
Details (different public sources; exemplary extracts):
Crude Blue (Clean Diesel)
"Fuel qualities continuously developed in recent years. In addition to the increasingly stringent emission limits (Euro VI (the autor : GF-6 US / lubes CK-4 and FA-4)), the requirements for the formulation of quality fuels significantly exacerbated in particular the decarbonisation roadmaps, the increasing proportion of biogenic components and new engine concepts.
Current fuels. In addition to conventional petrol and diesel fuels and gaseous fuels (CNG, LPG) and alternative fuels of biogenic origin are treated. Since modern high-tech engines can use their potential optimally only with high-quality fuels, and the interactions between motor and fuels must always be carefully observed. Apart from functionality, compatibility with additional components (for example, heaters) and new materials is becoming increasingly important."
"Blue Crude is a synthetically produced "designer fuel" and is based on the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide, the process for producing the works in three steps, explains CEO Christian von Ohlshausen (..Sunfire..): "In the first step, the electrolysis is, water is split into hydrogen and oxygen, the. second step is the conversion. in this case, the CO2 into carbon monoxide (CO) is converted. the third step is the assembly of hydrogen and carbon monoxide and the hydrocarbons, the actual energy.
"The system is therefore an energy converter," said van Ohlshausen continued. "It is current, preferably from renewable energy sources and chemicals. These chemicals can then loads up and out with the power comes an energy carrier, the one actually knows for a long time, namely hydrocarbons . " ..."
Diesel HPR (High Performance Renewable)
...California's most advanced low carbon diesel fuel Diesel HPR contains 98.5% Neste Oil's NEXBTL renewable diesel and is available at 18 locations (production Propel Fuel) across Northern California...
..."Incorporating diesel refined from renewable biomass through Neste Oil's advanced hydrotreating technology called NEXBTL, Diesel HPR meets the toughest specifications required by automotive and engine manufacturers, enabling the fuel to be used by any diesel vehicle.
Diesel HPR is designated as ASTM D-975, the standard for all ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel in the U.S., and is recognized as "CARB diesel" by the California Air Resources Board. Diesel HPR provides significant reduction in harmful tailpipe emissions, NOx emissions and particulates (PM)." ...

2013 October
Vessel General Permit (VGP - EAL) 2013 lubricants
The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has confirmed a revised Vessel General Permit (VGP) will come into force on 19 December 2013.
The new VGP, will apply to non-recreational vessels that are 79 feet (24.08 meters) and greater in length that enter US waters. For these vessels, the VGP requires environmentally acceptable lubricants (EALs) to be used in all applications that have the potential for an "oil-to-sea" interface, unless technically infeasible.
The VGP states that oil-to-sea interfaces include any mechanical or other equipment where seals or surfaces may release small quantities of oil into the sea. The VGP specifically identifies applications that have the potential for an oil-to-sea interface as:
-Controllable Pitch Propeller
-Thruster Hydraulic Fluids
-Other oil-to-sea interfaces including lubrication discharges from:
-Paddle wheel propulsion
-Stern Tubes
-Thruster Bearings
-Stabilizers
-Rudder Bearings
-Azimuth Thrusters
-Propulsion Pod Lubrication
-Wire Rope
-Mechanical equipment subject to immersion (e.g. dredges, grabs, etc)
The revised VGP requires that all vessels must use EALs in their oil-to-sea interfaces unless it is technically infeasible to use them in existing equipment. The permit does not require that vessel machinery or equipment be retrofitted to accept EAL.
For requirements related to EALs, the VGP defines “technically infeasible” as where:
No EAL products are approved for use in a given application that meet manufacturer (OEM) specifications for that equipment Products which come pre-lubricated (e.g. wire ropes) and have no available alternatives manufactured with EALs Products meeting a manufacturers (OEM) specifications are not available within any port in which the vessel calls
Change over and use of an EAL must wait until the vessel's next scheduled dry docking (consistent with the requirements of 46 CFR 31.10-21, typically at least every 5 years or sooner)
If a vessel is unable to use an EAL because it is technically infeasible, the owner/operator must explain why they cannot do so in their vessel recordkeeping documentation, and must report the use of a non-environmentally acceptable lubricant to EPA in the vessel’s Annual Report.
According to the new VGP, “environmentally acceptable lubricants” means lubricants that are “biodegradable” and “minimally-toxic” and are not “bioaccumulative”, meeting performance standards that have been defined by the EPA. For purposes of the VGP, products meeting the permit’s definitions of being an “Environmentally Acceptable Lubricant” include those labelled by the following labelling programs: Blue Angel, European Ecolabel, Nordic Swan, the Swedish Standards SS 155434 and 155470, Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the North-East Atlantic (OSPAR) requirements, and EPA’s Design for the Environment (DfE).

SHIP ENERGY EFFICIENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN (SEEMP)
Marpol Annex IX (9)
FUEL-EFFICIENT OPERATION for shipowners and operators
helios lubeoil proposal only for yachts (not for vessels):
Guideline: save fuel / gasoil / diesel with high quality lubricants.
Changing engine manufacturer approved lubeoils there are savings in gasoil consumtion up to ca. 3% (due to wheater, etc (MTU 1 compare MTU 3.1) lab testing).
As Yacht your are supplied usually with AGO (fuelstation diesel, note: minimum flashpoint 60°C or above required). Lowest sulfur gasoil produced in Europe and USA.
Highest Cetanindex (like ROZ for petrol) most power and less consumption. No comparison to vessels!!!
Reduce consumption and save natural resources. (lubes + fuels)
Please do not add any additives or else to your AGO with the lubricity addtive is the finest.
Your gasoiltanks are regulary checked and clean. There is no need to get any "sand" off...
Superyachts are high tech units which are in the common language: GREEN Yachts!
Invest in high qualitiy lubricants to save fuel.
You will spend more budget on lubricants and analysis. Longer oilchange interval up to 1500h (depending on manufacturer).
Save even lubes in other parts with lubricant analysis services. Gain information on your lubeoil status.
But remind even if you run lube analysis there will be no garantie to avoid failures of parts.
Estimate your yearly gasoil budget and look only on 2% of it.
Saving of quantity and budget will be much higher than the invest in lubricants.
Lubricants are one of the most important items for the smooth running of your superyacht’s engine. In addition to reducing wear and tear, the right quality lubricants will help reduce fuel consumption and can make real savings in fuel and carbon costs; on average 3% of your annual fuel bill.
In short, green yachting can be achieved by simply pairing the latest machinery types with correct high quality lubricants, fuels and greases.
Lubeoil surveys will put you in the position to reduce the engine’s wear and stress. Periodic sample analysis will help you to monitor this issue and help overall maintenance plans. Your lubeoil supplier will o er online reports with sample analysis.
Ensure you:
Know your yacht’s needs
Establish your lubricant survey (LO) with each lubeoil grade regarding one engine /part. Your lubeoil supplier will establish the yachts LO on basis of your information.
Only use the correct lube for each item (engine, part or “lubepoint”).
Communicate changes of parts to your supplier.
Utilise your supplier’s knowledge to help you get the best quality lubricants, greases & fuels tailored to your individual needs.
Always ensure your supplier guarantees the delivery of original lubricants and greases in sealed packaging.
Do not mix grades, especially not greases.
Always use only those grades and viscosities according to the specs of your equipment and listed in the LO.
Build time into your refit schedule to check and update LO and check the lube storage and packing.
Don’t forget, you deserve the best possible service and the basis for good service is good, honest communication between yourself and your supplier.

2009 March
Also released in: THE YACHT REPORT, issue 102 - march 2009
“DFP engine oil” is the latest technical solution which makes green yachting possible
helios lubeoil made successful progress with a major brand lubricant engine oil. It was tested around 3 years in ferries, busses and, of course, field tests at yachts with accompanied RLA analysis and Shell´s MPIC (Marine & Power Innovation Centre / PAE-Lab). All tests were from the beginning positive. Thank you to all owners, crews, shipyards and manufacturers to make this happen.
Today we got a perfect premium main- and auxiliary engine oil with or without Diesel Particle Filters (DPF). The main reasons are innovative changes in the formulation of the lubricant. These days we are awaiting decisions of our major brand partner how the DPF engine oil Shell Rimula R6 LM 10W/40 will be best presented to the yachting industry. It is important to use AGO gasoil (low sulfur) or EN 590 Diesel.
After an important meeting at Shell´s MPIC Hamburg, Germany, some yacht´s engine oil was changed at once within two weeks. Technical and economical advantages are significant.
Please send an email to info@helios-lubeoil.de or mail@superyachtlube.com for product details.
Details of operation and testing:
A particulate trap has a dramatic impact on the type of lubricant that can be used in an engine. While it acts as a filter to catch carbon deposits, which are then burnt off, many of the metal-containing additives found in traditional lubricants will cause blockage. Over time, this can cause a build up of pressure in the engine, higher fuel consumption and subsequent breakdown unless the trap is cleaned or replaced. Operating under such conditions will mean a vehicle has to come off the road more frequently, with associated downtime and maintenance expense.
The lubricants industry has therefore been challenged to meet new OEM requirements in developing products with minimum metal, phosphorous and sulphur content. To meet this challenge, the major lubricant manufacturer conducted four years of extensive research and development. Working with customers and across a global network of development laboratories, the “DFP engine oil” was created to specifically meet the challenge of lower emission engines and reduce the problems associated with exhaust gas after-treatment.
Independent controlled tests and major field trials with several leading operators, including a major German bus company, show that “DFP engine oil” Shell Rimula R6 LM 10W/40 offers the strongest performance profile in the market, satisfying a demanding combination of performance specifications covering the requirements of past, present and future European, North American and Japanese engines. (European specifications are ACEA E6, ACEA E7, MB 228.51, MAN M3477, MTU Category 3.1; North American specifications are API CI-4, Cummins CES 20077, Mack EO-M Plus; Japanese specifications are JASO DH-2) -
Shell Rimula R6 LM 10W/40 has been firmly proven to have the capability to make significant cost savings for customers due to the combination of protecting the engine and the exhaust after-treatment device, resulting in long term and reduced maintenance costs, enabling engines to remain in service for the maximum amount of time, a fundamental factor for success for yacht operators.
Please do not hesitate to run your yacht economical and “green”.
