Gazprom Neft promotes new motor oil brand

G-Energy, a new lube oil brand by Gazprom Neft –Lubricants, will be launched in Serbia and the Balkan region. G-Energy was launched in the market in April 2010 and incorporates a range of synthetic and semi-synthetic lube oils intended for passenger car engines of the latest generation. This brand belongs to a new family of lubricants produced by Gazprom Neft-Lubricants – G-Family. In addition to passenger car motor oils, G-Family also includes a line of motor lubes for cargo vehicles, G-Profi; a line of transmission oils for passenger and cargo vehicles, GBox and G-Truck; a line of lube oils for small engines, G-Motion and G-Wave; as well as a series of other specialized products. All of these products have been approved by OEMs such as Mercedes Benz, Ford, BMW, VW, MAN, Volvo, Deutzi and Cummins. Owing to the contract on distribution between NIS and Gazprom Neft Lubricants, G-Energy will enable NIS, together with its own brand NISOTEC, to gain a larger lube oil market share by the end of 2010, said Dmitriy Vukolov, director of NIS Lube Oil Division.
