Kreta offers Superyacht users a safe, convenient and cost-efficient alternative to petrol as Neil Taylor, Head of Sales for Proteum, explains, “For Superyacht users volatile petrol is eliminated from tenders and they can use the same fuel as the mothership, while benefitting from diesel’s low cost of ownership and extended range of the tender boat.  This reduces the frequency of refuelling, especially when petrol is not always readily available shore side.”

OXE Diesel Kreta’s low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) over 5 years can average £100,000 less than a petrol equivalent and, for most users, its higher purchase price is recoverable after 700-1000 hours.  Proteum has launched a new Finance package* exclusively for commercial customers, resulting in operators being able to benefit immediately from OXE’s lower ownership costs.

The OXE Diesel Kreta range comes with 125, 150, 175 and 200hp options to meet different customer specifications. 250hp and 300hp options are currently in development and due to be in production by early 2020.

Proteum will run demos throughout the exhibition,powering a 7.8m Ballistic Rib. Visitors to Seawork can book their OXE Diesel demo at the Proteum stand PO12 or in advance via https://proteum.co.uk/products/oxe-diesel/
