Well Oiled is rock band The Quireboys's fourth studio album, released in 2004. It is the second album recorded since the band re-united, following on from This Is Rock'N'Roll, and their first for the Steamhammer label.[1]

Allmusic reviewer Greg Prato gave it three and a half stars, stating "their bluesy, brawlin', whiskey-soaked style remains very much intact throughout".[1] Blabbermouth.net gave it 7.5 out of 10, calling it "Good Stuff".[2] It also received a positive review from the Southern Daily Echo, with Ali Masud calling it "A case of if it ain't broke don't fix it.".[3]
