We win when our customers win
When wind farms succeed, we all succeed. With low-global warming potential (GWP) renewable energy generated by machinery on the cutting edge of modern engineering, you and your team are a vanguard for a better future — and we’re proud to continue supporting operations just like yours.
A West Virginia farm operating 44 NEG MICON 1.5 MW wind turbines wanted to improve their operations and consulted our experts for help. Thanks to four-seasons climate with rain, snow and temperatures ranging from -10° F to 100°F, the operation was enduring severe conditions for their chosen lubricant — Mobilgear SHC™ XMP 320. To help improve their performance and get the most out of this excellent product, the Mobil experts recommended supporting their equipment further with Mobil Lubricant Analysis, enabling the team to monitor both lubricant and equipment conditions and moderate their maintenance routine on the fly, with detailed data and analytical support.
The result? An extended oil drain interval of 49k hours* — and $176,000 in savings per year.**
But most importantly, we gave them one less thing to think about. Because when the technicians on a wind farm aren’t worried about lubrication, they can focus on improving efficiency and performance and helping drive the energy transition for a better future.

*Actual results may vary based on operating conditions. Consult OEM or ExxonMobil before implementing extended ODI’s, especially if the equipment is under the OEM’S warranty.
**This Proof of Performance is based on the experience of a single customer. Actual results can vary depending upon the type of equipment used and its maintenance, operating conditions and environment, and any prior lubricant used.
