    Lubricants for medium-speed marine diesel


    engines running on distillate fuels
    Shell Gadinia are premium quality multifunctional diesel engine lubricants that are specially
    designed for the most severe service main propulsion and auxiliary marine trunk piston
    engines burning distillate fuels with a sulphur content up to 1%. They also perform
    satisfactorily in smaller high-speed engines of fishing fleets that operate under arduous
    conditions and have small sumps
    ____________________________________________________________________________________
    Main Applications
    Highly rated, medium speed, main propulsion & auxiliary trunk-piston marine diesel
    engines
    Turbochargers, oil filled stern tubes and variable pitch propellers
    Deck machinery & other marine applications requiring SAE 30 or 40 viscosity oils
    ____________________________________________________________________________________
    Benefits of using Shell Gadinia
    Improved engine reliability:
    Greater tolerance to engine overload or poor combustion due to improved piston
    cleanliness
    Reduced deposits in piston ring belt and cylinder liners
    Lower maintenance costs:
    Extended diesel engine life through reduced risk of ring sticking and breakage.
    Longer oil life, especially in high stress engines, because of Gadinias excellent
    resistance to oxidation and thermal degradation under severe operating conditions.
    Superior protection against corrosion for all engine components, due to Shell
    Gadinias unique formulation giving excellent alkalinity retention
    Improved control of liner lacquer leads to better control of oil consumption and
    contributes to lower cost of operation
    Re-assurance
    Greater safety margin to protect highly loaded bearings, in the event of water
    contamination, because of Shell Gadinias improved water tolerance and separation in
    separators.
    OEM endorsement by leading diesel engine manufacturers following extensive field
    approval trials, means that Shell Gadinia is suitable for the widest range of modern
    diesel engines.
