Shipping is a hard business. Everything must be done quickly and the quality must be impeccable. Let that just be two of our greatest assets: speed and quality. Our location close to the Port of Antwerp is perhaps the biggest advantage of Belco Motor Oil for shipping companies. Let us know when you are ashore and we will come by to pump the motor oil directly into your tank.
Our benefits for the shipping industry
A permanent fixture in the world of shipping
In the course of time, we at Belco Motor Oil have developed a passion and fascination for the many kinds of motor oils and greases used in shipping. It is important to us that we get to know the skippers personally and are able to respond flexibly to their demands. We aim to be a partner they can rely on.
HEAVY DUTY OLIE
In shipping, only the best oil is good enough. After all, high-quality oil will reduce wear and tear on moving parts as much as possible and extend the life of the engine. Not only does high-quality motor oil reduce downtime and maintenance; if the oil is of a better quality the engine will also consume less.

Case
MS Odessa stays on course with Belco Motor Oil products
Odessa, a Belgian vessel that mainly transports containers between the Port of Antwerp and Nike Laakdal, is 196 metres long. In 2017, at the recommendation of a few fellow skippers, the crew of the Odessa asked Belco Motor Oil whether they also sold lubricating greases. Of course! We drew up a customised quotation for various products and delivered the order to the ship. In the meantime, we have been collaborating closely for several years and are a regular partner for the lubricating greases and oil.
