Lube Oil Analysis Report

Summary
Report for THE BLACKSMITH ( 9659660 ) dated 06Feb2020
OIL RATING
Remaining reserve of alkalinity (BN) in the oil is adequate. Contaminant elements Sodium, Aluminium and Silicon might be originated from the
HFO. Vanadium and Nickel are HFO derived elements.
UNIT RATING
PQ and elemental Fe results suggest that the Iron level is within the acceptable limit. The stuffing box performance is evaluated by the share of
System Oil in scrape down sample landed per unit. Since no inservice system oil sample had been landed the Sample Number 19117066
received 30Dec19 has been used for evaluation. System oil dilution seems to be high in unit 6 which might be due to the leak from stuffing box
sealing or loosen piston rod/crown nuts; please check and correct. PUS cleaning hrs reported as 300 hrs after correction, which was mentioned
as 33520 hrs (ME Hours when Scav. Space last cleaned) on the labels.
Stuffing box performance
The stuffing box performance is evaluated by the share of System Oil in scrape down sample landed per unit.

The result of the latest cylinder scavenge drain oil sample is indicated by a black number identifying the cylinder unit of the engine. Any previous results of each cylinder unit are represented by a white
number. Underlined cylinder sample numbers (e.g. 5) show results for cylinder oil samples of a low BN Cylinder Oil of BN ≤ 30 mgKOH/g; if not underlined a Cylinder Oil of BN > 30 mgKOH/g is used. For further

Lubricant Analysis Glossary
The service utilizes the latest analytical techniques and computer programming to offer an advanced lubricant analysis package that provides a valuable lubricant
monitoring tool for the ship operator.
Lubricant properties reported on lubricant analysis reports
(tests conducted depend on machinery type and oil grade)
Acid Number
Tests the acidity of the oil. Certain oils have an inherent acidity level related to their additive chemistry. Increasing acidity may be indicative of the presence of organic
acids derived from oil oxidation.
Asphaltenes
Give an indication of heavy fuel derived components from raw fuel ingress and/or products of combustion from blowby.
Base Number
Previously known as Total Base Number (TBN) is a measure of the reserve alkalinity of an engine oil and its ability to neutralise harmful acids.
Fe
Iron (Fe) Indicate level of iron (ferromagnetic and nonmagnetic) in the oil sample, up to a particle size of 7 microns. Typical sources of iron are cylinder liners,
crankshafts, piston rings, gears. Can indicate the level of corrosive wear in cylinder scrapedown samples.
Feed Rate [g/kW/h]
Feed rate setting, which is e.g. the “Basic Feed Rate” for MAN engines, the “Base Feed Rate” for Wartsila engines and the “MCR Feed Rate” for MHI engines at the time
of sampling reported on submission form by crew.
Flash Point
Primarily a test for fuel dilution in engine oils. A decrease in flash point is generally an indication of fuel ingress which has contaminated the lubricant.
Insolubles
A test for the total solids contamination in a lubricant such as combustion soot, dirt, oxidation products and metal wear debris.
ISO 4406 Cleanliness Code
The code for expressing the particulate contamination level per milliliter of fluid sample with 4, 6 and 14 micron size. Dirt ingress, filter failure and generated wear etc.
results higher particulate contamination in the fluid which can cause damage to the sensitive control valves of high pressure hydraulic systems by plugging small orifices.
Oxidation
A chemical process in which a carbon atom gains bonds to oxygen in organic components like petroleum fluids. Oil oxidation leads into the degradation of the oil
properties. Oxidation test result has been expressed in this report as Abs/0.1mm, it can be converted to Abs/cm by multiplying with 100.
PQ ( Particle Quantification) Index
Not an oil property but an index that provides a quantitative assessment for trending purposes. It detects the amount of ferromagnetic wear debris in the oil sample. Can
indicate the level of abrasive / adhesive wear in cylinder scrapedown samples
PUS Cleaning Hours
Main Engine hours when PUS, Piston UnderSide or Scavenge Space last cleaned.
Sp. FRF [g/kW/h/%wt]
Specific Feed Rate Factor is a calculated value based on data provided by the crew via submission form and is the reported feed rate divided by the reported fuel Sulphur
content in use. It is also known as e.g. the “Adaptive Cylinder oil Control factor” or ACC factor for MAN engines equipped with Alpha Lubricator or “Sulphur Dependent
Feed Rate Adjustment Factor” for Wartsila engines.
Viscosity
A measure of the resistance of a liquid to flow. Commonly referred to as the 'thickness of an oil'.
Water
The percentage (by volume) of the total amount of water contamination.
Elemental analysis with some typical sources
(Elements reported depend on machinery type and oil grade and are reported in PPM, Parts Per Million)
Aluminium – Pistons, specific piston rings, bearing, housing, fuel derivative
Antimony Bearings
Calcium Lubricant derivative
Chromium Piston rings
Copper Bearings, gears, oil coolers, pipework, pistonrod glands
Iron Cylinder liners, crankshafts, piston rings, gears
Lead Bearings
Magnesium Casings, housings, lubricant derivative
Manganese Cylinder liners
Molybdenum Piston rings
Nickel Bearings, valves, gears, fuel derivative
