ConocoPhillips Company announced the
introduction of Triton ECT 5W40 Full
Synthetic, a premium tier API CJ-4 diesel
engine oil, made from high quality synthetic
stocks and a state-of-the-art advanced
additive for use by customers who want
enhanced engine performance from equipment
operating in a wide range of temperature and

wide-grade full synthetic diesel engine oil
that combines advantages of the synthetic
stocks and performance of an advanced
additive to deliver undiminished protection
for heavy duty engines operating in extreme
applications that range from high to low in
temperature and service," says Dias. "Triton
ECT 5W40 Full Synthetic has the potential to
improve fuel economy relative to a 15W40 oil,
benefiting customers through reduced fuel
usage. As the performance requirements and
market conditions elevate the demand for
superior quality heavy duty engine oils,
ConocoPhillips Company is dedicated to
offering newer products that meet industry
specifications while exceeding our customers'
needs."
Triton ECT 5W40 Full Synthetic meets
lubrication requirements of engines compliant
with 2007 low emissions regulations and meets
heavy duty engine oil specifications for
Caterpillar, Cummins, Detroit Diesel, Mack,
and VOLVO.
Triton ECT 5W40 Full Synthetic is the latest

in Honda, Toyota, and certain other vehicles
that require API SM/GF-4 0W-20.
The second new in the 76 stable is 76

is billed as a top tier full-synthetic PCEO
formulated to meet the performance
requirements of GM4718M specification (this
means Corvettes and late model Cadillacs).
This product is available in SAE 5W- and
10W-30 viscosity grades.
...and the final new to its line of 76 PCEO
is a reformulated version of its 76 Pure
5W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil. This product is
formulated to meet API SM/CF, ACEA A3-04, and
ACEA B4-04. In addition, it reportedly meets
the service fill requirements of
Mercedes-Benz 229.5, BMW Longlife-01 and VW
505.00/502.00.

North American Lubricants Introduces Pure Green Product Line |
North American Lubricants, Co.
(NAL) has announced the introduction of its
Pure Green (TM) product line,
developed to capitalize on the substantially
growing demand for earthfriendly
lubricants.
Formulated with "high-quality base stocks
refined from collected used oil,"
Pure GreenTM is said to deliver the unique
combination
of ultimate performance and
environmental conservation. Through the
utilization of what NAL says is select re-refined
base stocks and advanced additive systems,
Pure GreenTM lubricants are said to offer
performance equal to or greater than
conventional lubricants and have
similar price levels. Moreover, NAL says, valuable
environmental
benefits are created through
preserving irreplaceable petroleum resources,
reducing reliance on foreign
crude oil, reducing the amount of used oil
that is improperly disposed and
drastically reducing air pollution caused by
used oil that is down-cycled and
burned.
NAL President Shane Terry says, "The
introduction of Pure GreenTM to
our premium brand continues our corporation's
dedication to deliver new
solutions to the lubricant market and
maintains our commitment to proactive
environmental responsibility. Antiquated
re-refined lubricant supply chains
had limited availability, a limited product
line and did not meet modern
performance specifications." Terry continues,
"After solving these
problems, we received considerable interest
from a wide-range of market
segments including; municipal (State, City,
County) service facilities,
trucking, garbage collection, construction
and agricultural. This is a
significant addition to one of the most
valuable lubricant programs in the
nation."
NAL Chairman Larry Read added, "We are also
very excited about the
initial demand voiced from our important
customers in the installed oil
change market. We see an immediate
opportunity for our fast lube partners
to use our earth-friendly product line to
capitalize on the growing percentage
of environmentally sensitive consumers and
fleet accounts within their
customer base. This service will add needed
revenue and margin while
differentiating themselves from local
competition and enhancing customer
retention."
NAL will offer passenger car motor oil,
heavy-duty engine oil, hydraulic oil
and universal tractor fluid within the bulk
Pure GreenTM product line. The
product will be strategically introduced
through NAL's growing distribution
network in 44 states.

Warren Oil, Launches Lubriguard 15W40 With "Sootslayer Technology" |
Warren Oil Company, Inc. announced the launch of
LUBRIGUARD 15W40 CJ-4/SM Heavy Duty Diesel
Engine Oil containing "SOOTSLAYER
TECHNOLOGY."
LUBRIGUARD 15W40 Heavy Duty Engine Oil with
"SOOTSLAYER" Technology is said to have
twice the soot handling capability of typical API CI-4
engine oils and is engineered to maximize engine
performance and engine life in today's hotter-running
engines with specialized emission control
technologies and in yesterday's more conventional
engines. LUBRIGUARD 15W40 CJ-4/SM heavy duty
engine oil exceeds performance criteria of the new
API CJ-4 service category as well as previous service
categories.
LUBRIGUARD 15W40 CJ-4/SM engine oil was
designed to simplify a fleet owner's logistics.
According to Warren Oil, with one
of the industries highest starting TBN's and strongest
TBN retention rates, this one product is formulated to
provide outstanding performance in extended drain
applications and in mixed fleets at all diesel fuel sulfur
levels from ultra low sulfur diesel fuels containing 15
ppm sulfur to off-highway diesel fuels containing up to
500 ppm sulfur.
LUBRIGUARD 15W40 CJ-4/SM with its SOOTSLAYER
technology is reportedly formulated to be the only
15W40 engine oil an operator will need having
received OEM approvals from Mack EO-O Premium
Plus, Volvo VDS-4, DDC Power Guard Oil
Specification 93K218, Cummins CES 20081 Renault
RLD-3, ACEA E7-04 and is recommended for most
other engine service requirements including
Mercedes Benz 228.31, Man 3275, DHD-1, JASO DH-
2 and many others.
Irvin Warren, Warren Oil's Chief Executive Officer and
President, said, "We at Warren Oil are pleased and
excited to announce this wonderful new
product." "When we started the development of
LUBRIGUARD CJ-4/SM 15W40, we established a
performance target that used what we believed were
the best performance characteristics of the
acknowledged industry leaders, Shell Rotella T Triple
Protection, Chevron DELO 400 LE and Mobil Delvac
1300 Super engine oils." "With the introduction of this
new LUBRIGUARD CJ-4/SM 15W40, we feel that we
have met and in some ways exceeded our
performance targets."

New ExxonMobil Brochure Educates Fleet Managers and Owner-Operators about the Benefits of Mobil Delvac Synthetic Heavy-Duty Diesel Engine Oils |
To help educate trucking fleet managers and owner-
operators about how synthetic lubricants can enhance
the performance and reliability of their vehicles, as
well as potentially deliver fuel economy benefits,
ExxonMobil today introduced a new six-page color
brochure for its flagship Mobil Delvac synthetic
commercial vehicle lubricants.
The Mobil Delvac lineup of the fully synthetic heavy-
duty lubricants includes Mobil Delvac Synthetic
Transmission Fluid, Mobil Delvac Synthetic Gear Oil,
Mobil Delvac Synthetic ATF, and Mobil Delvac 1 ESP
5W-40 which, in June 2007, became the world's first
API CJ-4 licensed all synthetic 5W-40 lubricant.
Available in print or online, the brochure details how
using high quality synthetic
lubricants, such as Mobil Delvac 1 ESP 5W-40, can
help fleet managers and owner-operators extend
drain intervals, enhance soot handling, and minimize
wear, leading to lower maintenance costs and
downtime.
In addition, the brochure provides key data, with
accompanying graphics and detailed charts, that
shows how Mobil Delvac's full range of synthetic oils
have performed in the most challenging OEM and
industry standard benchmark tests, such as
Sequence IIIG Oxidation Test, CEC L60-1 Thermal
Oxidation Test, and Cummins ISB Wear Test.
Test results show that Mobil Delvac 1 ESP, Mobil
Delvac Synthetic Gear Oils and Mobil Delvac Synthetic
Transmission Fluids, when used in combination, can
help trucking fleets and/or owner-operators generate
up to three-percent fuel savings, compared to
conventional, mineral lubricants.
"As the trucking industry continues to become more
competitive, and the technology used in today's
vehicles continues to become more advanced, fleet
managers and owner-operators are increasingly
looking at ways to lower their costs, by maximizing the
performance of their vehicles and enhancing fuel
economy," said Yeong Kwon, Commercial Vehicle
Lubricants' product offer adviser, ExxonMobil
Lubricants & Petroleum Specialties Company.
"With our full lineup of Mobil Delvac-branded, high
performance, synthetic lubricants, we continue to
extend our legacy of being at the forefront of lubricant
technology, providing the marketplace with a range of
products that deliver outstanding oxidation resistance,
wear protection and viscosity stability, as well as
improved fuel economy."
