Every piece of power generation equipment, whether a turbine, transformer or stationery engine is made by different original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), and they have their own oil and lubrication requirements.
Lubricant manufacturers collaborate with OEMs and utility companies to ensure their oils and greases are optimised for the latest equipment technology.
