PREMIUM SPORTFISHING GROUP COMMERCIAL FISHING BOAT CASE STUDY
Green Fuel Tabs Liquid concentrate was tested over a 117 day period in a Premium Sportfishing Group commercial fishing boat. This case study provides a detailed fuel usage comparison and demonstrated that the fishing boat showed a steady fuel economy improvement with the exception of two fishing trips. After the fact it was found that the fuel was not being treated with the Green Fuel Tabs Liquid for those two time periods. One of the more compelling results that came out of the test was that the fuel economy began to improve again once Green Fuel Tabs Liquid was reintroduced.
The most recent data collected showed a 12.4% performance improvement over the pre-test baseline and a 17.5% increase for the year to year fuel usage is compared. In both cases there was a substantial improvement in fuel economy when the fuel was treated with Green Fuel Tabs Liquid.
At $4.00 a gallon (current marina fuel pricing) and a 12.4% improvement in fuel economy, daily savings would be $295. With the fishing boat typically being used 300 days per year, the net savings using GFT-Liquid would be $88,500 dollars annually. As noted during the Study, fuel economy increased steadily from 1.7% to 12.4% when the fuel was treated with Green Fuel Tabs Liquid. We do expect the performance to continue to improve and should level out in the 15% to 20% range over the coming months.
VLCC CLASS CARGO VESSEL TRAVELING ROUND TRIP; DUBAI TO CHINA TO DUBAI
This case study demonstrates the effectiveness of GFT/Liquid on a Marine Cargo Ship. Performance, Fuel Consumption and Lower Emissions were recorded during the treatment of over One Million Gallons of diesel fuel. Overall results combined a 12.3% increase in speed/performance, plus a 7.3% decrease in fuel consumption, netting a 19.6% total performance gain. A 22% emissions reduction was also achieved.
With some adjustments, these substantial benefits could be tuned toward fuel savings or; more toward performance and speed of the vessel without increasing fuel costs. GFT/Liquid also significantly reduced sludge (by more than 33%) in a number of the properly operating engines that were measured. There is still more room for GFT/Liquid to optimize combustion in this ship's engines. Long-term fuel treatment is expected to further reduce fuel consumption, increasing performance and eliminating emissions.
PERSONAL FISHING BOAT
The closer for me was when we fueled up my 28' Kevlacat fishing boat with twin 250 hp outboard motors after a 12 hour day trip 85 miles offshore. After adding Fuel Saver Global Tabs, I only put 126 gallons in the tank rather than the typical 160 to 180 gallons.
