FOBAS launches latest simplified version of fuel changeover calculator

Lloyd’s Register Fuel Oil Bunkering Analysis and Advisory Service (FOBAS) on Friday (17 May) released a bulletin to inform shipowners and operators of its latest simplified version of fuel changeover calculator:

For many years, FOBAS fuel changeover calculator has been used by ship owners, operators, and other industry stakeholders to estimate the changeover time from high to low sulphur fuel oils. So far, the feedback from our clients has been positive and we continue to develop our offerings to better service our clients.

This week, we have launched the latest simplified version of FOBAS changeover calculator. In the latest

version, ship operators can now use single operating window to calculate changeover times for standalone or multiple fuel combustion units depending on service system configuration.

It is important for the users to read guidance notes before using the changeover calculator to understand the functionality and limitations of the calculator. 

Please ensure to use the latest version of the calculator which can only be downloaded from our website by following the link here (scroll-down and find under the useful tools).
