    The document discusses fuel pressure systems on ships. It compares a marine fuel oil booster system to a marine fuel pump system, noting differences in components like springs and cams. The booster system uses hydraulic pressure from fuel oil to pump fuel at higher pressures of 700-800 bar to the engine, while the pump system reaches lower pressures of 300-380 bar. The working principle of the booster system is also described, where low pressure fuel oil of 7-8 bar powers the booster to pump fuel at very high pressures to the engine.
