② Excessive damping of hydraulic piston
It is suspected that the exhaust valve pausing is caused by excessive
damping force due to narrowed clearance by deformation.

• When operating on low sulphur fuel(S<1.5%), it is recommended
to use low TBN cylinder oil (15

3.2 Specification of low sulphur fuel oil
Distillate fuel
• Mitsui-MAN B&W engine allows using the distillate fuel oil such as
MGO and MDO according to ISO 8217 without any modification on
current fuel system.
New type
yp Low Sulphurp fuel (ULSFO =Ultra low Sulphur p Fuel Oil))
• Characteristics of ULSFO are different depending on the product. It is
important to confirm the characteristics of used fuel (ULSFO) and
inform the crew about the appropriate actions to ensure that the fuel
could be used safely and efficiently.
The General characteristics of these fuels (ULSFO) are;
• They might have higher viscosity and higher pour point. (Heating
is necessary)
MES 三井造船株式会社
MITSUI ENGINEERING & SHIPBUILDING CO.,LTD. 31
3.3 Viscosity and Lubricity
Viscosity
• The viscosity at engine inlet should be kept above 2mm2/s(cSt).
• Fuel pumps should be in adequate condition. (Worn fuel pumps
must be renewed)
Lubricity
• Too little lubricity may result in fuel pump seizure. However, we
do not regard the lubricity of fuel as a major issue.
