Our marine additives

The demands of marine engines and the complexity of their technology require perfect mastery of the variable qualities of "fuel." The incorporation of additives in fuels is a solution to meet this challenge, especially with the current strong development of bio and alternative fuels.
Choosing TotalEnergies Additives and Fuels Solutions marine fuel additives means choosing a tailor-made formulation adapted to your specific needs. They represent a solution that addresses your many concerns regarding efficiency, durability, and environmental issues. An opportunity to turn IMO regulation into an opportunity!

Fuel additives: our effective solution to meet your needs

TotalEnergies Additives & Fuels Solutions fuel additives have been specifically formulated to address marine fuel issues. Our additives offer many advantages to solve specific problems or improve overall operation:

Improvement of cold operability of fuel :

By reducing the filterability temperature and limiting the formation of paraffin crystals, our multifunctional additives allow better operability of fuels, even at low temperatures.

Improvement of lubricity :

Our additives can also prevent wear of fuel injection equipment.

Inhibition of asphaltenes :

They mitigate precipitation and obstruction problems by improving the dispersion of asphaltenes. They prevent filter clogging and injector fouling related to the presence of sludge, asphaltenes, or oxidation residues in the fuel.

Optimization of engine performance and reduction of emissions :

Our multifunctional additives are formulated to improve engine operation and the combustion properties of marine fuels (from diesel to heavy fuels of different origins, and different levels of sulfur and cetane, including biofuels). They prevent and eliminate engine deposits in injectors. They allow better combustion properties of the fuel by increasing cetane and improving fuel droplet atomization. They reduce consumption and pollutant emissions. Prevention of corrosion and rust formation in installations and engine parts.

Safe use of biofuels :

The strong development around renewable fuels requires special precautions for easy and safe use of these resources. For example, in terms of storage and oxidation stability, filterability, corrosion, or lubricity. We have developed 'all-in-one' solutions to facilitate the transition to these sustainable solutions.
