seminar for Datang Power that covered topics including choosing the right
oil, the implications of ash content in gas engine oil, setting the correct oil-
drain interval and the importance of oil tests.

Shell also offered the Shell LubeAdvisor technical support service and the
Shell LubeAnalyst oil condition monitoring service, and performed oil tests to
enable Datang Power to determine the appropriate oil-drain interval for the
gas engine. Shell also recommended that Datang Power should switch to
Shell Mysella S3 S, a medium-ash oil for stationary gas engines.

After changing to Shell Mysella S3 S, Datang Power has extended the gas
engine’s oil-drain interval to 900 hours and reduced its oil consumption. As a
result, the company has reported total annual savings of US$5,729.
