Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006014866A1] A method of lubricating an internal combustion engine with a power output of at least 1600 kilowatts, with a lubricating composition, the method comprising: (1) monitoring one or more performance characteristics of the engine; (2) selecting an additive package to provide a desired TBN level to a lubricating composition to modify the performance characteristics of the engine; (3) combining the additive package of step (2) with (a) a component having a viscosity of about 2 mm<SUP>2</SUP>/s to 12 mm<SUP>2</SUP>/s, comprising a light neutral base oil, and optionally (b) a component having a viscosity of above 12 mm<SUP>2</SUP>/s to about 40 mm<SUP>2</SUP>/s, comprising heavy neutral base oil or a brightstock, to form a lubricating composition; and (4) supplying the lubricating composition of step (3) to the engine.
