We should like to remind to Owners and to all the correspondents visiting our web site, that our agency is also acting as bunker brokers and supplies including lubes.

As to lubricants in particular, we are authorised sale agents for Lubmarine Italian branch which, as all you probably know, is the lubricants department of the major French oil group TotalFinaElf.

Accordingly, it is of utmost interest of Owners whose ships are random but with a certain frequency calling Italian ports (but not only, we can also cover Croatia, Greece, Egypt, France, Spain, Gibraltar) to apply to our agency for lube oil price quotation.

We can eventually arrange for you an open purchasing contract to be used only if and when your vessels are actually calling one of our covered port and of course if you deem you are unable to collect a cheaper price from other suppliers.

We point out too, that you are entitled to apply to us for a quotation even if your vessel is appointed to an agency other than ours.

Despite we can quote also price for single drums, we hardly suggest Owners to apply especially for quotation for supply of bulk lube oil programming same in advance whenever your vessel is scheduled to call an Italian port, since the price of bulk lube oil is finally much cheaper than drummed ones.

By a short notice prior vessel's estimated arrival, bulk oil supply will be arranged alonside the vessel by trucks transporting small plastic tanks of 1000 liters capacity each and approximate weight 870 kilograms from which vessel has to pump onboard

This supply is however subject to minimum order of  2000 liters or 1740 kilograms (meaning practically at least no. 2 small tanks), maybe less whether vessel calls an important port.

A practical example:

For small ships with medium speed trunk piston diesel engines with TBN of 12 mg KOH/g we can suggest the lube oil type "Disola M 3015" or alternatively "Disola M 4015", which are just indicated for these kinds of vessels and approved by leading manufacturers.

Currently,  the  price  for  supply  of  100  kilograms  of  such  kind of bulk lube oil  at  Porto  Marghera  is US$ 102,94.

With a sufficient advance notice we can arrange supplies also in those minor Adriatic ports like Porto Nogaro, Chioggia, Porto Levante, Pescara, Ortona, Vasto, Manfredonia, Barletta, etc.

A wide choice of products other than marine engine oils is also available, such as hydraulic and gear oils, special greases, etc.

Therefore we await for your free application for quotations at your earlier opportunity whenever calling Porto Marghera or nearby ports.
