MGO Fuel Sample Testing in Malta, Europe

Enquiry:

We are currently making preparations for a four vessel delivery program and have Malta as a potential refuel stop.  Can I please ask if you are able to carry out analysis of a landed sample of MGO in Malta and what the turnaround time would be for results?  We would be looking for the latest ISO testing for a complete analysis but dependant on time to receive results we may also require a more basic, rapid analysis in the short term.

If you could include current costs, sample bottle and dispatch requirements also that would be very much appreciated.

Analysis of Urea in Water, Sweden, Europe

Enquiry:

Dear laboratory expert,

We are interested in the analysis of urea in water. We have 25-30 samples and the urea levels are expected to be similar to the concentration in human blood, i.e. ca 10 mg/100 ml, or up to 10 times higher.

Would that be possible?
