Marine Cylinder Oil Consumption & Cost Tool

Estimate two-stroke marine cylinder oil consumption from engine power, load, operating hours and user-entered feed rate. Calculate daily and annual oil use, liters, drums, lubricant cost, cost per MWh, cylinder-oil-to-fuel ratio and onboard ROB endurance. Advanced mode models multiple engine-load periods with different feed rates.

Currency is display only. No exchange-rate conversion is performed.
Consumption Feed rate × engine energy output
Operating Cost Daily, annual, per-hour and per-MWh lubricant economics
ROB Planning Onboard endurance, reserve and entered resupply lead-time coverage

Engine & Operating Profile

Use the engine's applicable rated power and a representative operating load. The tool does not recommend a cylinder-oil feed rate.

Cylinder Oil Results

Single-load operating estimate

Enter engine data
Enter engine power, operating load and cylinder-oil feed rate to estimate daily and annual lubricant consumption.
Planning estimate only. Cylinder oil feed rate is engine-, liner-, ring-, fuel- and operating-condition-specific. Actual requirements depend on engine maker instructions, engine design, fuel sulfur content, cylinder oil BN, liner condition, scrape-down analysis, cold-corrosion risk, load profile, lubrication-control strategy and vessel procedures. This tool does not recommend lowering or increasing feed rate and must not override OEM limits, approved lubrication settings or condition-monitoring results. Use vessel-specific engine documentation and technical guidance before changing cylinder lubrication practice.
