Narrative:

On the previous flight, we had flown the aircraft with no noticeable problems or vibrations. At the gate after deplaning, a flight attendant mentioned she had ridden on jumpseat in back and noticed vibrations from the right engine. I asked the first officer to be diligent on his walkaround inspection, especially when looking at the right engine. He reported no problems. On engine startup and taxi out, all system were normal. In the latter stage of takeoff, the right engine egt rose and peaked above normal. As we became airborne and safely climbed, I slightly reduced the right engine power to maximum takeoff temperature. The remaining climb out was normal. We reached a cruise altitude of 3100 ft with no abnormalities. After 33 mins at cruise, the oil quantity in the right engine went to zero. Within 3 mins, the oil temperature was above limits, so we shut the right engine down and declared an emergency. We diverted to ZZZ1 and landed without further incident.

Title: AN MD88 OIL QUANTITY GAUGE INDICATED ZERO AND THE OIL TEMP ROSE ABOVE THE LIMIT. THE ENG WAS SHUTDOWN, AN EMER DECLARED AND THE FLT DIVERTED TO NEAREST SUITABLE ARPT FOR AN UNEVENTFUL LNDG.

Narrative: ON THE PREVIOUS FLT, WE HAD FLOWN THE ACFT WITH NO NOTICEABLE PROBS OR VIBRATIONS. AT THE GATE AFTER DEPLANING, A FLT ATTENDANT MENTIONED SHE HAD RIDDEN ON JUMPSEAT IN BACK AND NOTICED VIBRATIONS FROM THE R ENG. I ASKED THE FO TO BE DILIGENT ON HIS WALKAROUND INSPECTION, ESPECIALLY WHEN LOOKING AT THE R ENG. HE RPTED NO PROBS. ON ENG STARTUP AND TAXI OUT, ALL SYS WERE NORMAL. IN THE LATTER STAGE OF TKOF, THE R ENG EGT ROSE AND PEAKED ABOVE NORMAL. AS WE BECAME AIRBORNE AND SAFELY CLBED, I SLIGHTLY REDUCED THE R ENG PWR TO MAX TKOF TEMP. THE REMAINING CLBOUT WAS NORMAL. WE REACHED A CRUISE ALT OF 3100 FT WITH NO ABNORMALITIES. AFTER 33 MINS AT CRUISE, THE OIL QUANTITY IN THE R ENG WENT TO ZERO. WITHIN 3 MINS, THE OIL TEMP WAS ABOVE LIMITS, SO WE SHUT THE R ENG DOWN AND DECLARED AN EMER. WE DIVERTED TO ZZZ1 AND LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.
