Product Description

Shell Gadinia S3 30 is a high-quality, multi-functional marine diesel engine lubricant specifically designed for highly rated, medium-speed trunk piston engines operating on distillate fuels (with sulfur levels up to 1%). Beyond its primary application in marine propulsion and auxiliary power generation, this versatile oil is also highly suitable for other critical onboard systems, such as reduction gears, stern tubes, deck machinery, and turbochargers requiring an SAE 30 viscosity grade. Formulated with top-tier mineral base oils and a balanced additive package, it provides excellent control against piston deposits, lacquer buildup, and ring sticking in high-stress thermal zones. Its 12 TBN chemistry delivers robust acid-neutralization capacity, effectively shielding vital engine parts from corrosive wear caused by fuel combustion products. Additionally, it offers outstanding water separation and base-retention properties, making it highly reliable when running through marine centrifuges and filtration systems. The 20-liter pail packaging provides an excellent ergonomic solution for vessel operators, offering a highly portable and convenient size for targeted oil changes, regular top-ups, or manual fluid replenishment in smaller auxiliary units, coastal commercial crafts, and offshore platform equipment where handling massive 209-liter drums is impractical.
