Power up: maximising uptime for


energy operators Jarmo Vihersalo, Industrial Marketing Advisor EAME, ExxonMobil


With global energy consumption rising and the ongoing challenge to reduce emissions, there is an increasing focus on alternative ways to generate electricity. The role of gas engines in the energy mix continues to rise and the global gas engine market is estimated to grow by an average of 7.85% annually over the period 2015 – 20191


. To ensure operators can satisfy


this level of growth, the onus must be on optimizing operations to enhance power output.


Meeting the rising demand for energy For gas engine operators looking to improve productivity, increasing engine availability is critical. This means protecting engines against wear to reduce scheduled and unscheduled downtime and maintenance procedures – consequently increasing power production and reducing costs.


Lubricants are essential to efficient and reliable operations, and using advanced lubricants over traditional mineral lubricants can improve gas engine performance. Not only can they extend oil drain intervals by protecting machinery for longer, they can help better mitigate the effects of deposits such as ash residue, which can accelerate engine wear.


ExxonMobil’s Mobil Pegasus™ 1005 gas engine oil is designed with today’s high-output, low-emissions gas engines in mind. Its exceptional wear protection and deposit control help enhance engine reliability, allowing operators to extend oil drain intervals and reduce maintenance procedures.

Putting advanced lubricants to the test One example of a company that has benefited from using advanced lubricants is Seasun, a Dutch company. At its Delta site, Seasun presented ExxonMobil with the ambitious task of extending the oil drain intervals from 750 hours to 1,500 hours, whilst maintaining wear protection and reducing oil consumption.
