How new generation turbine oils based on Shell GTL (gas-to-liquids) technology can help address these challenges
In a world of increasing demand for energy and diminishing spare capacity in existing power grids, keeping industry moving is more challenging than ever before.
The lubricant is a critical element in the lifespan of a turbine, in today’s operations where severe conditions and cyclic peak loading are the new norm. However, the importance of adopting a comprehensive Lubricant Management Strategy should not be underestimated.
This webinar will introduce the latest innovation in turbine oils based on gas-to-liquids (GTL) technology. With consistently high performance, the new Shell Turbo S4 range has been designed to offer outstanding, long-term lubrication under the most severe operating conditions and will help to minimise deposit and sludge formation, even under cyclic peak loading conditions.
Learn how this high quality oil can help you to extend oil life, protect your equipment from deposit formation and varnishing, and help to bring efficiencies to your turbine system.
Join this webinar to find out how the use of a higher performing lubricant, in combination with a Quality Control System, can bring benefits to you.
