I'm a fan of that oil personally...but in not getting to even 3.5HTHS (which is what A3/B4 needs to be to "meet"), I wonder how they build it as an SAE30, when it should be able to do that standing on it's head.
 
Could be because the European market was not the primary target. They do claim to meet A3B3, but most of their listings are for commercial grade diesels. Even then, they do not meet the current 93K218 standard for Detroit engines either. This seems to be a product offering from many years ago that has just marked time instead of moving up the standards ladder.
