Chevron Introduces Delo® 400 NG SAE 15W-40

Chevron Lubricants, maker of the Delo® brand of
technologically advanced engine oils, lubricants and coolants, today
introduced the latest member of its product family, Delo® 400 NG SAE
15W-40. The new product, formulated with Chevron’s ISOSYNTM
Technology, is a premium oil for use in compressed natural gas (CNG) and
liquefied natural gas (LNG) and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) engines.

Delo 400 NG is formulated to deliver outstanding protection and long
drain performance in a wide variety of CNG and LNG engines. It has
demonstrated excellent field performance and has the capability to help
customers minimize operating costs in operations such as municipal bus
services, linehaul and delivery truck services, waste truck operations,
and off-road equipment.

“There are numerous factors driving the adoption of natural gas
vehicles, including significant domestic supply availability, lower
fueling costs, reduced environmental impact, and growing CNG/LNG
refueling support infrastructure,” said Jim Gambill, North America Delo
brand manager. “As more fleets look to alternative fuel solutions to
help reduce their carbon footprint and boost their bottom line, we felt
it was important to offer an engine oil specifically designed to meet
their needs. With Delo 400 NG, there is now a premium oil, designed
specifically for heavy-duty natural gas vehicle engines, that will
deliver the engine durability and reliability, extended oil drain
performance, and long life protection our customers require to
successfully operate today.”

Key benefits of Delo 400 NG SAE 15W-40 include:

  • Alternative fuel performance: Delivers great performance for
    medium and heavy-duty vehicles using CNG, LNG, or LPG.
  • Excellent engine cleanliness – Excellent ratings for sludge
    control; and valve or piston deposits in field trials and engine tests.
  • Superb oil oxidation/nitration control – Minimizes main and
    connecting rod bearing corrosive wear
  • Low wear performance: Offers excellent tappet and liner wear
    performance alternative fuel engines
  • Extended oil drain performance: Delivers long drain performance
    protection despite higher stress of CNG combustion

Delo 400 NG meets the performance requirements of key OEM specifications
including Cummins (CES 20074) and Detroit Diesel (93K216) and is
suitable for service in Daimler MB226.9, Volvo CNG, Renault RGD, Mack
CNG, Isuzu CNG, Hino CNG, and Hyundai CNG engines.

In addition, Chevron has successfully tested Delo 400 NG SAE 15W-40 in
Cummins ISL G series CNG engines in delivery truck service and has
achieved oil drain intervals of 33% longer* than the Cummins recommended
drain interval for this engine in this type of service.

*As with any extended oil drain program always follow OEM maintenance
recommendations and utilize a used oil analysis program to monitor
engine performance.

Delo 400 NG SAE 15W-40 will be available across North America in June
