Questions about Havoline DS and Chevron Supreme

[Coastal]

Are Chevron Supreme Dino and Havoline now exactly the same? I noticed on the product data sheets the specs and content were exactly the same. Chevorn Supreme uses ISOSYN basestock so I guess Havoline does as well even though the label doesn't reflect that?

Based upon the last Chevron conference I attended, yes. However the chevron product should be phased out, as the havoline name is what is intended to be retained for consumer products. IIRC that is about the only Texaco legacy name that will be retained.

No big deal in PCMO, but it will be a big deal when names like Ursa, Regal, etc. get phased out in other markets. I think this may be part of the reason why heels seem to be being dragged.

So are the Chevron branded PCMO going to be phased out. I'm assuming Delo and all that will still be out there. havoline will be the passenger cars and Chevron branding will continue for industrial lubricants?
