Regular fuel testing is paramount to the early detection and treatment of fuel quality issues.

Our standard laboratory examination checks and analyses the extent of microbiological growth in your fuel. This includes:

  • Visual Analysis (Internal based on ASTM D4176)
  • Total Viable Bacteria count (IP613 or IP385)
  • Totalviable Fungal count (IP613 or IP385)
  • Qualitative identification of Sulphate Reducing Bacteria (SRB's)
  • Fuel Cleanliness (ISO4406 & similar)
  • Fuel haze factor (Internal based on ASTM D4176)
  • Filter Blocking Tendency (IP387)

For analyses such as particulate or inorganic contamination, or biodiesel quality checks, please contact Fuelcare for a quotation. Send 100–500ml samples in sealed plastic containers via a dangerous goods-approved courier, including the fuel MSDS. Contact us if you are unsure of requirements.
