Abstract: Starting from the selection and management of lubricants in oil-consuming enterprises,this paper introduces the physicochemical properties and classification of lubricants,deeply analyzes and explores three common problems in lubricants procurement management：fixed oil brand and model,complex oil types,and decoupling between oil enterprises and manufacturers. Relevant optimization strategies for oil procurement and management are proposed. Taking Bohai Oilfield as an example,the optimization strategies and application results adopted by oil-consuming enterprises based on their own actual situation are further elaborated to provide reference basis for high-quality procurement and management of lubricant in enterprises in the future,improve the quality of equipment lubrication services,reduce operating costs,and promote high-quality development of enterprises.

Key words: lubricant, procurement management, operating costs, mechanical equipment, high-quality
