Rotella T3 NG 15W-40 is a multigrade dedicated CNG engine oil that is specifically formulated to meet the performance demands of the ranging temperatures and pressures of compressed natural (CNG) fueled engines. The oil features a balance of detergency and dispersancy for excellent engine and piston cleanliness, ensuring engine efficiency and optimal engine performance. In addition, the T3 NG oil features low-ash additives to minimize deposit formations to prolong the life of valves and sparkplugs.

Good piston and engine cleanliness Optimized balance of detergency and dispersancy provides good piston and engine cleanliness ensuring long and efficient engine operation. Ignition system protection Optimized formulation with reduced levels of "ash" containing additives to control deposit formation in the combustion chamber to help prolong the life of valves and spark plugs. Good wear protection Contains an optimized active anti-wear system that balances the more demanding requirements of on-highway applications (compared to stationary gas engine) with the need to minimize spark plug fouling.

Shell Rotella T3 NG 15W-40 Energized Protection oil uses tailored combinations of high performance additives to ensure that the oil adapts and protects under the range of pressures and temperatures found in compressed natural gas (CNG) fueled engines. Shell Rotella T3 NG oil is suitable for mobile applications like buses and trucks fitted with engines designed to run on 100% CNG and LNG.

Main Applications

Frequently asked questions

Find answers to common questions about our products and services

  • This oil is designed exclusively for mobile heavy-duty vehicles powered by compressed natural gas (CNG) or liquefied natural gas (LNG) — specifically buses and trucks fitted with engines built to run on 100% CNG or LNG. It is not a general-purpose diesel engine oil.

  • Natural gas engines use spark plugs and valves that are highly sensitive to ash deposits from combustion. The low-ash additive formulation in this oil is specifically designed to control deposit formation in the combustion chamber, helping to prolong the life of both valves and spark plugs and reducing the risk of fouling.

  • The 15W-40 rating means this oil performs like a lighter-viscosity oil during cold starts — providing easier flow and quicker lubrication — while maintaining the protection level of a heavier 40-weight oil at full operating temperatures. This multigrade capability is specifically intended to handle the range of temperatures and pressures found in CNG-fueled engines.

  • This oil is formulated for on-highway mobile applications and is not intended for stationary gas engines. Its anti-wear system is specifically balanced to meet the more demanding requirements of on-highway use — such as in buses and trucks — while also minimizing spark plug fouling under those conditions.

  • The oil uses an optimized balance of detergency and dispersancy additives to keep pistons and engine internals clean. This combination helps prevent deposit buildup, supporting long-term engine efficiency and performance over the service life of the oil.

  • The exact OEM approvals and specifications applicable to your specific engine should be confirmed on the product's Technical Data Sheet before use. For a full listing of equipment approvals and recommendations, consult the Shell Technical Help Desk or the OEM Approvals website.
