The European Fuels and Lubricants Performance Test Development Organisation

CEC is an Industry-based organisation for the development of new Test Procedures for the performance testing of Automotive Engine Oil, Fuels & Transmission Fluids (using gasoline &
diesel engines). In addition, it covers Marine & Large Engine Oils, Two-stroke Engine Oils & Associated Bench Tests.

It maintains existing tests on an ongoing basis, concentrating on quality assurance (it forms part of EELQMS -European Engine Lubricants Quality
Management System) and maintaining
confidentiality amongst Stakeholders. It also manages the provision of Reference Fluids (lubricants and fuels) for its tests. CEC is based in Brussels and maintains a Secretariat in Leicestershire UK.

CEC represents the Automotive Fuels, Lubricants, Additives and allied industries in the development of performance tests, usually via their European Industry groups; ACEA, ATIEL, ATC and CONCAWE, see the 'Links' page.

CEC Test Methods are used extensively by the automotive and petroleum industries in Europe and throughout the world.

CEC develops timely, quality focussed and cost-effective test methods in response to Industry needs. These tests evaluate the performance of transportation fuels, lubricants, additives and other fluids. They can be engine or rig tests. CEC also develops analytical tests to support its engine and rig tests.
