Synopsis

An Introduction to Fuel Analysis provides a guide and reference for those who, whilst not specialists in the technical aspects of marine fuels, need to understand the terminology and the reporting used in fuel analysis as part of their work. This book will help anyone who has any doubts about what can be found in marine fuels and, once found, what to do about it. It includes some very useful appendices that provide places to go for help, lists of abbreviations and a multi-lingual glossary of the words and terms most often found in fuel test analysis reports. Although never a substitute for the huge amount of detail that can be obtained from a professional analyst using a fully-equipped modern laboratory, this book certainly provides a substantial amount of information that should be welcomed and absorbed by anyone involved in any way with marine fuels.
