Jakarta, Indonesia – In a significant milestone, PT Cuprum Industry Indonesia proudly announces the successful completion of trials on the self-propelled fuel tanker operated by PT Tiga Berlian Asiana. This achievement represents a major leap forward in the field of engine oil technology and its impact on fuel efficiency, engine temperature, and maintenance costs.

Key Findings After Over 1200 Hours of Testing:

• Significant Fuel Savings: Cuprum SAE 40 engine oil demonstrated its prowess by achieving remarkable fuel savings of up to approximately 12%. This fuel efficiency improvement was evident through a notable decrease in Fuel Consumption. Even after 1207 Rotary Hours (RH), fuel consumption remained lower than when using standard oil.
• Cooler Engine Temperatures: The engine’s cylinder block recorded substantially cooler temperatures, with a reduction of approximately 21%. Across various sections of the engine, temperature levels consistently remained lower compared to the use of standard oil.
• Extended Oil Usage Duration: With Cuprum oil, the oil’s useful life significantly surpassed that of standard oil, reaching up to 1207 RH compared to the standard oil’s 750 RH. This extension of oil life translates to reduced engine maintenance costs and enhanced operational efficiency.

During the disassembly process of the engine utilizing Cuprum oil, it was observed that wear on friction or collision components while the engine was in operation was entirely within normal parameters. This observation is especially noteworthy given the high Rotary Hours (RH) reached. In contrast, the engine using standard oil exhibited abnormal wear and tear on friction components, ultimately leading to engine failure.

These remarkable results have sparked discussions between PT Cuprum Industry Indonesia and PT Tiga Berlian Asiana to conclude a commercial contract. This partnership will not only empower PT Tiga Berlian Asiana to become an environmentally responsible business but also result in substantial operational cost savings through reduced fuel consumption and maintenance costs.

This groundbreaking success showcases the exceptional performance and benefits of Cuprum engine oil, from substantial fuel savings to cooler engine temperatures and extended oil life. PT Cuprum Industry Indonesia’s commitment to innovation and excellence continues to drive advancements in engine oil technology, contributing to a more sustainable and efficient future for all.
