Introduction: There is a body of knowledge gained by EA Technology that has been used to inform live-tank oil sampling and other maintenance practices. However, little of it has been formally documented in a way that allows us to create a clear audit trail for our maintenance intervals

Objectives: Formally to review and document the knowledge gained by EA Technology through STP and other R&D on oil degradation
