For nearly two decades, Premier Separator Services has worked closely with the marine industry, supporting vessels with separation equipment, spare parts and technical expertise. During that time, one thing has remained constant: fuel quality has a major impact on the reliability and performance of marine engines and fuel systems.
From contamination and sludge to poor combustion, reduced lubricity and the dreaded diesel bug, fuel-related problems can quickly become expensive operational problems.
That experience has led us to our latest venture.
We are delighted to introduce our new sister company, Premier Fuel Solutions, established specifically to bring advanced fuel treatment technology to the yachting and leisure marine industries.
And at the centre of it is Aderco V25.
Introducing Premier Fuel Solutions
Premier Fuel Solutions has been created with a clear focus: to provide yacht owners, engineers, captains and recreational boaters with a simpler and more effective approach to maintaining their diesel fuel.
Rather than offering another conventional diesel additive, we wanted a product backed by technology already proven in demanding commercial marine applications.
That’s what led us to Aderco.
From Commercial Shipping to Yachting and Leisure Marine
Aderco has an established history within commercial shipping, where its fuel treatment technology is used to support fuel performance and reliability in demanding operating environments.
Premier Fuel Solutions is now bringing this technology to superyachts, pleasure boats and inland waterways, with Aderco V25 providing a highly concentrated treatment developed specifically for these markets.
V25 combines Aderco’s established fuel treatment technology with enhanced lubricity performance, creating one treatment capable of addressing several common diesel fuel concerns.
One Treatment, Multiple Benefits
One of the things that impressed us most about V25 was just how much one treatment can do.
Rather than using different products for different fuel problems, V25 helps support the fuel system from tank to engine.
Its benefits include:
- Helping combat sludge and fuel contamination70
- Helping manage diesel bug and microbial contamination
- Cleaning tanks and fuel systems through its surfactant action
- Supporting cleaner and more efficient combustion
- Helping reduce smoke and soot
- Restoring lubricity lost in modern low-sulphur diesel
- Helping protect fuel pumps and injectors
- Supporting fuel stability during periods of storage
- Helping keep filters and fuel systems cleaner
V25 is also highly concentrated, with just 1 litre treating up to 10,000 litres of fuel, making treatment simple for everything from smaller pleasure boats to large superyachts.
A Safer, More Sustainable Approach
Another major reason we wanted to introduce Aderco technology to our customers was its approach to safety and sustainability.
Aderco is a Certified B Corporation, and V25 uses a vegetable-based formulation produced from a natural-resource waste by-product.
Unlike many traditional chemical fuel treatments, V25 is non-hazardous, making it easier to handle, transport and store onboard.
For yacht crews and recreational boat owners, that is an important advantage. Fuel treatments are often stored in engine rooms, lockers and onboard storage areas, so reducing the need to carry unnecessarily hazardous chemicals makes practical sense.
Benefits for Superyachts
Fuel management aboard a superyacht presents its own set of challenges.
Large fuel capacities, extended cruising, varying fuel quality between destinations and periods spent alongside or at anchor can all affect fuel condition.
V25 can be used throughout a yacht’s diesel-powered equipment, including:
- Main propulsion engines
- Onboard generators
- Tender and chase boats
- Diesel powered auxiliary equipment
By supporting cleaner fuel systems, improved combustion and restored lubricity, V25 can help engineers maintain reliable performance while helping reduce smoke, soot and fuel-related maintenance.
Cleaner combustion can also mean a cleaner yacht, with less visible exhaust soot around transoms, swim platforms, decks and exterior furnishings.
Benefits for Pleasure Boats
For pleasure boat owners, fuel may remain in the tank for extended periods between trips or throughout winter storage.
Over time, water contamination, oxidation, sediment and microbial growth can affect fuel quality and potentially lead to blocked filters and unreliable engine performance.
Regular treatment with V25 helps maintain fuel condition while keeping the fuel system cleaner.
Its concentrated dosing also makes it extremely straightforward to use, without specialist equipment or complicated dosing systems.
Benefits for Canal Boats and Inland Waterways
Canal boats can be particularly susceptible to fuel storage issues because diesel may remain onboard for long periods and engines can experience relatively low and intermittent usage.
This makes good fuel management particularly important.
V25 helps address sludge, contamination and diesel bug while supporting cleaner fuel systems and improved combustion. Its lubricity-enhancing properties can also help protect precision fuel-system components when operating on modern low-sulphur diesel fuels.
For inland waterways users looking for a simple preventative approach to fuel maintenance, it provides one treatment that can be used as part of regular fuel management.
Simple to Dose and Easy to Store
V25 has deliberately been made straightforward to use.
The standard treatment ratio is highly concentrated, with 1 litre treating up to 10,000 litres of fuel. This means only a small quantity is required for regular treatment.
Premier Fuel Solutions offers V25 in different sizes to suit everything from small leisure craft and canal boats through to large yachts and commercial applications.
An online dosing calculator is also available through Premier Fuel Solutions, making it easy to calculate the correct amount for your fuel tank.
Proven Technology, Now Available to the Leisure Marine Market
For us at Premier Separator Services, launching Premier Fuel Solutions is a natural extension of what we have been doing for years.
We already work closely with marine engineers, vessel operators and yacht management companies, and we understand how important reliable fuel systems are to keeping vessels operational.
We’ve seen the consequences that poor fuel quality, contamination and inadequate maintenance can have on equipment.
Premier Fuel Solutions allows us to tackle the problem further upstream, starting with the fuel itself.
With Aderco’s established commercial marine technology behind V25, we’re excited to make this technology more accessible to superyachts, pleasure boats, canal boats and the wider leisure marine industry.
Discover Premier Fuel Solutions
Premier Fuel Solutions is now live, with Aderco V25 available for yacht owners, captains, engineers and recreational boaters looking for a smarter approach to marine fuel treatment.
Whether you’re protecting a superyacht carrying thousands of litres of diesel or looking after the fuel in your canal boat over winter, the principle is the same:
Cleaner fuel. Cleaner systems. Better combustion. One treatment.
