Wel the oil itslef soes not wear out and since the full synethic does
not break down like standard oil in some cases they use very long times,
Years, between actual oil chnages. The case I am thinking of in a
submarien Diesel engine. OF course they had the oil analized periodisly,
Uses a very fine bypass filter and ran the oil through a
Purifier(Centrifuge) to really clean out any contaminaton. And depending
on the results of tha analysis would add additiaves to bring them back
up to what level was desired.

After saying al of that it is far more practical to just change it when
used in smaller engines.
