    Shell Argina X

    Medium-speed trunk-piston diesel engine oil

    Shell Argina X is a multifunctional crankcase lubricant for highly rated medium-speed


    diesel engines operating on residual fuel. Argina X is designed for conditions of high
    oil stress and has been further optimised to improve deposit control.
