Indicative Equivalents

Equivalents are indicative, matched on SAE grade, base number and ISO viscosity. Always confirm against the engine or equipment maker's approval list before switching. Interflow provides product data sheets and OEM approval letters on request.

Shell Argina Replacement

Argina T 30 and T 40 (BN 30) map to Servo Marine 3030 and 3040. Argina X 40 (BN 40) maps to Servo Marine 4040, which is also the closest SERVO grade to Argina XL 40 for heavy-fuel engines.

Shell Gadinia For Distillate Engines

For auxiliary engines on MGO, Gadinia 30 and 40 map to the low-BN Servo Marine 1030 and 1540, which control deposits without excess alkalinity.

Tellus And Omala Users

Shell Tellus S2 V users can switch to Servo Marine HYD grades of the same viscosity. Omala S2 G maps to Marine Gear EP oils and Omala S4 GX to Servosyngear PAO synthetics.
