Shell Rimula Diesel Engine Oils Product Portfolio

Shell Rimula Diesel Engine Oils are Shell’s premium range of heavy-duty diesel engine oils, designed to protect modern and older-generation diesel engines operating under demanding conditions. The Shell Rimula series is a comprehensive lineup of heavy-duty diesel engine oils specifically engineered for demanding applications in long – haul trucks, buses, heavy machinery, and off-highway equipment. It is formulated with advanced additive technology and adaptive molecules that respond to varying pressures and temperatures, ensuring durability, efficiency, and reduced operating costs. The series is designed to meet a wide range of engine specifications, including those for modern low-emission engines with exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), diesel particulate filters (DPF), and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems, as well as older naturally aspirated or turbocharged engines. Rimula oils are available in both mineral-based and synthetic formulations, with viscosities ranging from monogrades (e.g., SAE 10W, 30, 40) to multigrades (e.g., 15W-40, 10W-30, 10W-40). They are formulated to provide "triple protection" against wear, deposits, and acid/corrosion, helping to extend engine life, reduce maintenance costs, and improve operational efficiency in harsh environments.

The series has evolved to comply with stringent industry standards like API CK-4, CJ-4, CI-4 Plus, and ACEA E7/E9, ensuring compatibility with engines from major manufacturers such as Caterpillar, Cummins, Detroit Diesel, Mack, Mercedes-Benz, MAN, Volvo, and others. Some variants are low-ash (Low-SAPS) for emission control systems, while others are high-ash for high-sulfur fuel applications. Overall, Rimula Diesel Engine Oils emphasize reliability, with field-tested performance in real-world scenarios like long-haul trucking and mining operations.
