An apparatus for scavenging lubricating oil comprises an integrated slinger/runner rotatable with the turbine engine rotor discourages oil seepage out of an oil sump of a forward bearing for a gas turbine engine during all operating conditions of the gas turbine engine from idle to take-off speeds and during static non-operation. The apparatus includes a runner comprising an axially forward section and a frusto-conical aft section, and a slinger joined coaxially integrally to the aft frusto-conical aft section. The apparatus includes a means for blocking flow of oil from the frusto-conical aft section toward the axially forward section.
