Narrative:

En route from lax-jfk, cruising at FL330 approximately 80 KM southwest of denver. The master caution #1 engine oil pressure low light illuminated. The #1 engine oil pressure gauge read 0, and the oil quantity gauge went rapidly to 0. As we were going through the engine failure checklist (to shut it down) the engine flamed out. We dumped fuel below the maximum landing weight of the aircraft, diverted to denver, landing without incident. The task of monitoring the fuel distribution and estimating the landing weight was more involved than usual due to an inoperative #2 fuel quantity gauge and fuel totalizer. Total time from warning to landing was 15 mins. All checklists were accomplished as per the flight manual. I verbally notified the captain and first officer that I had commenced dumping and to notify ATC of the dump but I didn't follow up on insuring that they did inform ATC about the procedure. We were all very busy at the time and maybe I could have emphasized the point by speaking louder.

Title: #1 ENG SHUT DOWN DUE TO OIL LOSS. DIVERT TO AND LAND AT DEN.

Narrative: ENRTE FROM LAX-JFK, CRUISING AT FL330 APPROX 80 KM SW OF DENVER. THE MASTER CAUTION #1 ENG OIL PRESSURE LOW LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE #1 ENG OIL PRESSURE GAUGE READ 0, AND THE OIL QUANTITY GAUGE WENT RAPIDLY TO 0. AS WE WERE GOING THROUGH THE ENG FAILURE CHKLIST (TO SHUT IT DOWN) THE ENG FLAMED OUT. WE DUMPED FUEL BELOW THE MAX LNDG WT OF THE ACFT, DIVERTED TO DENVER, LNDG WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE TASK OF MONITORING THE FUEL DISTRIBUTION AND ESTIMATING THE LNDG WT WAS MORE INVOLVED THAN USUAL DUE TO AN INOP #2 FUEL QUANTITY GAUGE AND FUEL TOTALIZER. TOTAL TIME FROM WARNING TO LNDG WAS 15 MINS. ALL CHKLISTS WERE ACCOMPLISHED AS PER THE FLT MANUAL. I VERBALLY NOTIFIED THE CAPT AND FO THAT I HAD COMMENCED DUMPING AND TO NOTIFY ATC OF THE DUMP BUT I DIDN'T FOLLOW UP ON INSURING THAT THEY DID INFORM ATC ABOUT THE PROC. WE WERE ALL VERY BUSY AT THE TIME AND MAYBE I COULD HAVE EMPHASIZED THE POINT BY SPEAKING LOUDER.
