ExxonMobil advanced lubrication; maximising wind farm productivity
, electricity generated from wind turbines must become more price competitive.To optimise wind turbine performance, advanced lubrication and related services have been developed to help wind farm operators to increase wind turbine availability and reduce unscheduled downtime.
Minimising unscheduled downtime is a particularly important factor for those wind farms currently under construction over 100 miles offshore. In addition to the high costs associated with replacement parts and labour, the logistics of reaching wind turbines far out at sea can run into six-figure sums, covering such costs as the chartering of specialist ships to carry out the maintenance.
High Performance Synthetic Lubricants
The good news is that by selecting advanced oils and greases, and adopting a proactive approach to maintenance, wind farm operators can significantly improve the productivity of their operations and reduce costs.
