Friction, wear and lubrication in the marine sector: applications and technological challenges.

Eni participated in the XVII Conference on Tribology, which was held in Naples on 5 May 2016. The theme of the conference was “friction, wear and lubrication in the marine sector: applications and technological challenges”. The study, developed and presented by Eni’s Industrial Lubricants Development and Technical Support team, focused on bio-lubricants in the marine sector.
Engineer Paolo Muscetta outlined the main reference standards for the use of lubricants in the marine sector and presented the Eni’s new Biolube lines: Arnica ESB hydraulic fluids and the Acer EST “stern tube” lubricant. With these new lines Eni has opened up the use of Biolube for marine use with products of high technological value that are environmentally compatible and have already received European Ecolabel certification.
