Stern Tube Lubricating Oil systems operate under difficult and severe operating conditions, these Oils are exposed to seawater which can cause rust and corrosion, wear and tear due to heavy operating conditions of the propellor shaft which could lead to the formation of wear metals and oxidation of the Stern Tube Lubricating Oil due to heavy use. The IACS (International Association of Classification Societies) mandates that testing of the Stern Tube Lubricating Oil should be ideally carried out every 6 months, but it is noticed that ship owners and managers prefer testing the oil every 3 months for optimum performance.
