Petronas launches new marine lubricants

Petronas Dagangan Bhd has launched its Nautimar Fishing Boat Oil (FBO) in Malaysia on February 16 in two grades, Ultimo CI-4 15W-40 and Super CF-4 20W-50. The new lubricants, created after two years of research, are designed for deep-sea fishing boats and marine applications. Petronas says it is confident the Nautimar FBOs will help it penetrate the marine industry while letting the local fishing community experience greater performance and smoother boat rides. He said the products will be made available through the National Fishermen’s Association, Persatuan Nelayan Kawasan, and appointed dealers. (February 17, 2011)
