Gas Engine Lubricants

Innovative development

More than 25 years of research, development and rigorous field tests have resulted in a line of premium synthetic lubricants for gas engines.

With our unique ECOSYN gas engine lubricants and our long term expertise, WCI has built the reputation as frontrunner in ester synthetic gas engine lubricants. Our lubricants are used successfully for the lubrication of natural gas, biogas and special gas fueled engines. 

The advantages of synthetic gas engine oils

ECOSYN synthetic gas engine lubricants have not only multiple technical advantages compared to mineral and other synthetic gas engine lubricants, but also proven economic advantages:

  • total cost of lubrication (€/MWh) up to 30% lower than mineral lubricants due to 2-5 times extended oil drain intervals and up to 50% lower oil consumption
  • cleaner engines due to less carbon and varnish build up resulting in less unscheduled maintenance and longer parts lifetime
  • very low knocking tendency: ECOSYN solved severe knocking problems on many different engines 
  • gas emission limits can be reached more easily with ECOSYN: e.g. no extra NOx gases are produced due to irregular combustion events
  • environmental benefits: 2-5 times less oil drains and significant less oil consumption resulting in less oil transport to and from the installation 

OEM approvals and recommendations

ECOSYN lubricants are approved by and meet the requirements of several major gas engine manufacturers:

  • MWM
  • Caterpillar
  • Innio Jenbacher
  • MTU

ECOSYN gas engine lubricants are specially recommended by:

  • Innio Jenbacher for special gas applications
  • MTU for high temperature applications
Whether you want to solve a technical problem on your engines, investigate if you are able to reduce your total cost of oil or improve your oil analysis program, WCI’s gas engine experts are ready to assist you and to inform you about the capabilities of ECOSYN gas engine lubricants.
