Oil Analysis Laboratory

Our oil analysis is run by chemists & reliability experts who understand both the oil physical and chemical conditions as well as machinery reliability in which these oils operate. Talk to us about your needs, goals, or wishes...we shall do our best to make your targets are perfectly met and mor


Used oils analysis is a crucial element in production asset reliability program. Testing oils with the right profile of tests / parameters that show oil and machine condition is critical to making correct decisions.

NATCOM advanced oil analysis lab is equipped with a complete portfolio of analysis equipment that cover all the needed information according to world class practices. 

What sets us apart is that we are:

  • Independent: We are not related to any oil supplier or producer. We stand at the same distance from all.
  • Reliability Experts: We are experts in industrial asset reliability, understand machines and how they operate, as well as understand oil and its characteristics and functional requirements. We have over 100 years of combined experience in machinery health, asset reliability as well as oil condition monitoring in all sorts of industries.
  • Complete, comprehensive, and advanced test profile: Our lab includes the best of the breed analysis tools and systems. It is complete and comprehensive.
  • Proven Track Record for over 35 years of excellent: Founded and managed by highly experienced and renown reliability professionals. 
  • Locally available full analysis capabilities: The only lab in Egypt that has full analysis capabilities for Turbine, and hydraulic oils. 
  • Very short turnaround time: We are able to provide analysis reports within 3 to 5 business days from receipt of the samples.
