The Era of Efficiency


Gain improvements in efficiency
in production and transportation
Efficiency gain to help to reduce
CO2 emission into the
atmosphere

Todays efficiency requires


continuous yearly improvements
not single event regulatory
compliance
All partners of the transportation
supply chain must work together
to deliver efficiency

Its more than achieving efficiency; its about maximizing it

Thinner Viscosity Benefits


What is the Benefit:

Commercial and environmental


concerns about fuel economy

A 1% saving on fuel economy for


a 250 truck fleet equals over
$160,000 annually

For OEM fleet a 1% saving could


mean the difference in paying
thousands of dollars per vehicle
in credits or fines

Developing tools which can


quantify the financial benefit from
efficient lubricant

The economic impact can be significant

Introduction of Low Ash CJ-4 Lubricants

2007

Lubricant requirements change as a result


of market and hardware changes

Market Changes

EPA regulates lower


particulate emissions
from heavy duty diesel
trucks

21

Hardware Changes

Engine manufacturer
add diesel particulate
filter to on highway
trucks

New low sulfur fuel


is required by DPF
equipped vehicles
New lower ash
additives developed

Cross industry coordinated change to have hardware, fuel, and lubricant changes
available to support the industry

Lubricant additives were changed to support the ash limit yet maintain the wear and
cleanliness performance of previous formulations

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Efficiency is Unique for Each Application

Engine Oils:

Driveline:

It means advanced protection and

It means delivering more


power as a function of energy
exerted, and delivering more
torque while reducing fuel
consumption, CO2
and transmission wear.

reduced friction, while


maintaining integrity of smaller,
hotter, more demanding engines
that consume less fuel and
produce less CO2

Industrial:
It means equipment running
longer, faster and more
effectively. This added

productivityeven
in more demanding
environments for lubricants
means more customer profit.
2014 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Fuels:
It means technology that

enables flexibility in use of


increasing complex fuel options
while still optimizing engine
performance.

Era of Efficiency Legislative Demands

Efficiency demands continuous yearly improvement

How Lubricants are Delivering Efficiency

Whiskey
90

85W

75W

Engine lubricants are moving, 5W-30


(passenger car) and SAE 15W-40
(Heavy Duty) to 0W-20 and 0W-16
and 10W-30 and 5W-30

Gear oils that traditionally have been


85W-140 now use 75W-85

By moving lubricants to thinner


viscosity, churning and pumping
loses are minimized

Macro Trend: Thinner lubes reduce frictional losses, but


24

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Understanding the Challenge

Lubricants are required to protect in all regions of operation


25

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Fluid Protection

Lubricant physical
properties are critical
Additives work to maintain
viscosity
Disperse soot and
sludge
Reduce oxidation
Prevent shear
Maintain flow when
cold

Maintaining lubricant physical properties are key


26

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Surface and Compression Protection

With increased load, lower


speeds and thinner
viscosity, surfaces of the
moving parts begin to
interact

Without a lubricant film,


additives must react and
form on the surfaces to
protect

Lubricant must focus on Surface Protection and limit friction increase


27

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Era of Efficiency

Thinner lubricants
Efficient drivetrains
Downsizing
Downspeeding
GDI
Turbo
More gears

Era of Efficiency is moving our focus to surface and compression protection


28

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Friction

Impact of Viscosity Bench Testing

Viscosity decreasing

Speed

As oils get thinner friction increases occur sooner


29

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Thinner Lubricants Increase Wear in Engine Test

Industry testing shows cam wear


increases with thinner lubricants

Small amounts of cam wear reduces


valve lift, airflow, and engine output

Engine wear and decreased


performance can negate the benefits
of lower viscosity:
More repair cost
Lower torque, less work, decreased
fuel efficiency

Simply lowering viscosity without other changes will not work


30

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Where Do Additives Deliver Performance?

31

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Friction

Preventing Friction Gain

Speed

Additive technology can return lubricant performance


32

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Delivering Complete Protection

Protect surfaces in thinner


lubricants
Main fluid flow in high soot
tests
Reduced fuel consumption

Lubricant additives provide complete protection


33

2015 The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Reduced Wear

Era of Efficiency testing


has led to new
formulations:

Summary

Efficiency performance mandates continue to


affect the entire industry

Engine designs are smaller and more


powerful; thus, thinner lubricants with robust
additive chemistries are needed to cope with
efficiency demands

Surface Activated Additive Systems (SAAS)


Technology provide new levels of protection,
particularly in the challenging boundary
lubrication regime

Proposed ILSAC GF-6 oils will need to be


designed to help improve engine fuel efficiency
while still delivering on overall engine durability
Lubricant technology enables efficiency gains for future market needs

34

When your company and ours combine energies, great things can happen.
You bring ideas, challenges and opportunities. Well bring powerful additive and
market expertise, unmatched testing capabilities, integrated global supply and
an independent approach to help you differentiate and succeed.

Legislation

Clean fuels, re-refined mandates, ODI mandates

Secondary / near term drivers:

Refinery upgrading
optimization

Heavier crude slates and greater diesel


output

Refinery viability

Reduced crude oil demand in the Atlantic Basin

Refinery divestments

Ownership changes and differing


strategic outlooks

Product mix continues to upgrade

Base Oil Supply / Demand


The likely outcomes

16

2015The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Group I Demand
Demand for cost effective base oils
Technical drivers for Group I still in play (MD, off-highway)
Group I not necessarily most cost effective
Group II increasingly competitive
Regional cost effectiveness
New Group II / III capacity increases downward pressure on
cost

Group I production not purely cost driven


Regional / economics
Security of supply

17

2015The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Impact of Over Supply

Group I base oil production impacted


Technology limitations
Crude oil availability specific feedstocks required
Compatibility with fuel production optimization
Outsized impact: only 8-12% yield on crude

Low value co-products


Yields of distillate aromatic extract (DAE) and bitumen can be larger than
base oil
Typically valued at High Sulfur Furnace Oil (HSFO)

Contracting market / demand for Group I quality


Latest PCMO and HDDEO are predominantly Group II / III formulated
Nearly fully displaced from North American automotive engine oils
Other regions, declining with the replacement of the on-road fleet

Victim of the technology paradox


Large cost of production disadvantage versus many higher quality Group II
and Group III base oils

18

2015The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Impact of Over Supply


Group II base oil impact
Cost advantage over Group I not universal
Applies mainly to lube hydrocracking operations
Derived from higher value byproducts, scale and lower opex

Some retrofit operations with Group I type costs


Same co-products, similar opex still requires lube crudes
Some retrofit capacity subject to reduced utilization or even closure
Most used in-house and to supply contract customers

Re-refined Group II has an entirely different cost structure and


varies widely by location and waste oil collection area

Group III supply unbalanced in the near term


Demand increasing but not keeping up with supply
New capacity increasing at a reduced rate
Limited formulation overlap with Group I and II
Operation at reduced levels forced

North American Base Oil Trends


Group I outlook
Global surplus pressure on all base oils margins in near to
medium term
North America vulnerability of Group I producers limited
Structural differences from other regions
Few large players w/broad geographic separation
Low cost natural gas provides NA refiners fuel opex advantage

Access to low cost crudes; $13-24/bbl less than Brent


ExxonMobil strongly advantaged in scale, integration
benefits, retrofit options, global supply network

Lubricant technical drivers already integrated


N. American market has adjusted and stabilized

21

2015The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

North American Base Oil Trends


Group II outlook
Global gains at Group I expense
Group II satisfies most Group I technical demand often with cost
savings
Growing market outside of NA for non-fuel economy automotive engine
oils
Gains from Group I closures/reduced utilization

North America is Group II dominant market


Further penetration not expected unless/until Group I capacity closes
Volume losses to Group III
Move towards fuel economy HDDEO
Turnover of the car parc

Greater 4 cSt Group II+ ameliorates potential losses

Most NA growth from exports to Group II deficit areas


Chevron (Pascagoula) volume targets European and SA markets
Many specifications more cost effective with Group II/III blends than all
Group III

22

North American Base Oil Trends


Group III outlook
Sustainable global capacity expected to add 15-20% by 2019
Increase from 5.6 mtpa to 6.6 mtpa
Asia and ME remain dominant supply areas
Europe improved self sufficiency with new capacity in Spain
(SK/Repsol)

Global demand to continue increase


Capacity overhang likely over the medium term
Some producers at reduced throughput but remain economically
viable
No closures expected

NA to increasingly rely on imports from the Middle East and Asia


NA demand (including Mexico) forecast to grow
No significant virgin Group III capacity on the horizon;

Conclusions

25

2015The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Conclusions
The outlook for lubricants
Lubricants are an operating cost and their demand has a
strong correlation to global GDP
Based on IMF projections
Weak to modest growth in global lubricant demand
Assumes no major OECD fiscal issues

Primary growth in the emerging economies


OECD demand to continue its modest decline

Canadian and US demand continues modest rate of decline


Totaling up to ~5% for the 5 year period

Opportunities prevail in the emerging markets and for advanced, high specification and
eco lubricants
26

2015The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Conclusions
The outlook for base oils
Little change in base oil demand;
Drivers continue to be mainly external to the lubricants business
Technology paradox & clean fuels investment having greatest impact
Fuel refining/capacity/technology/demand sets the stage
Impact of $40/bbl crude oil

Additional global capacity expected

9 mtpa of Group II/III and naphthenics


New Group II capacity
Capacity creep - mostly Group II/III
Some Group I Group II upgrades

By 2019, Group I is projected at of the global base oil pool, down


from 51% in 2012
Expect significant reduction of high cost capacity to close or operate
at reduced levels
Predominantly Group I, but also some high cost Group II
Group III to likely operate at reduced utilization - none likely to close
North America impact minimized due to its structural advantages
27

2015The Lubrizol Corporation, all rights reserved.

Conclusions Implications for Lubes

Demand for thinner oils


Moving from GP I to II / III

Improved volatility
Improved fuel economy
Seal compatibility
Product compatibility

Global increase in utilization of higher quality basestocks
