Default Quardra needle bearing oil ?

One of our more prominent field guru's advised us today, that because Quardra engines use needle bearings, that it was wrong to use a synthetic oil such as Stihl HP Ultra, which we have been using all along. He stated that only a petroleum oil was satisfactory for lubricating Quardra's using needle bearings.

What is your opinion of such a statement ?
