J§fpp> You might still find gold in San Francisco with a little help from Chris Maland. That is exactly what happened when an 11,750 hp motor ship was using too much cylinder oil to suit her owners. Her chief engineer didn't know whether he could cut back safely. But he did know a good man to ask: Chris Maland, Exxon® Marine Port Representative for the San Francisco Bay area. Chris likes to inspect and photo- graph engine parts because he's a veteran of our research labs. And he knows what a chief engineer is looking for, because he's sailed with that rating. After checking the engine out with Chris, the Chief began a gradual reduction in the oil feed rate. With follow-up inspections. For over a year now, oil con- sumption with Exxon Marine TRO-MAR® SV-100 has averaged less than 0.37 grams per horsepower hour. Low liner wear rates have been maintained. And the owners have savings that amount to picking up a large gold nugget every year. If you think heads-up service can be as big a money saver as high- quality marine lubes and bunker fuels, call any of our Port Repre- sentatives. Exxon Company, U.S.A. Houston, Texas E*ON
