Engines 4B – Gas Engine Oil Analysis
Typically when discussing lubrication, we emphasise that the cost of lubricant is an insignificant part of the overall maintenance and operations budget. However, this is often untrue in the gas engine world, where oil purchasing can consume as much as 30% of overall spend. For this reason – as well as the impact on reliability and frequency of overhauls; operators live and die by oil analysis results. However, most are performing this analysis in an imperfect way.
In this course we will discuss the various result on an engine oil report, how to interpret them, and their significance.
