            <p>SPC MERLION 2000 SERIES are API CD oils specially formulated for normally-aspirated or supercharged marine, industrial and locomotive diesel engines burning high sulphur marine gas oil or marine diesel oil.</p>
            <p><strong>Benefits</strong><br />
            SPC MERLION 2000 SERIES provide the following benefits:</p>
            <ul>
                <li>Prevents the formation of lacquer and carbon deposits on pistons and piston ring grooves.</li>
                <li>Resists sludge formation.</li>
                <li>Good antirust and anticorrosion properties.</li>
                <li>Good antiwear and antifoam properties.</li>
                <li>Good demulsibility characteristics.</li>
                <li>Good dispersancy and detergency properties.</li>
            </ul>
            <p><strong>Application</strong><br />
            SPC MERLION 2000 SERIES are recommended for lubrication of normally-aspirated and supercharged diesel engines in ocean-going marine vessels, supply boats, trawlers, oil rigs and industrial diesel generating sets. It is also recommended for locomotive diesel engines where a zinc-free oil is not specified. The 20 TBN alkalinity reserve in the oil is preferred for diesel engine burning marine fuel of up to 1.5% wt sulphur content.</p>
            <p><strong>Performance Standards</strong><br />
            SPC MERLION 2000 SERIES meet the following performance requirements:</p>
