Enhanced wear protection
The anti-wear performance of Shell Turbo oils helps reduce the risk of turbine failure, even for heavily-loaded gearboxes.
Often the unsung hero of power generation, your turbines are what helps drive the gears of industry forward – whether they’re used to maintain manufacturing chains or ensure an efficient energy supply.
Keeping the power flowing can be easier said than done, however, particularly amid the hostile operating environments that are common in these energy intensive industries. Environments that expose critical components to everything from high temperatures to heavy loads.
Fortunately, the right turbine oil can help. By prioritising protection and performance, our Shell Turbo range of turbine oils can help keep your equipment working exactly as it was designed. And with decades of success in the field, you can be sure that the Shell Turbo portfolio is made up of only the highest performing oils.
The anti-wear performance of Shell Turbo oils helps reduce the risk of turbine failure, even for heavily-loaded gearboxes.
Because unplanned downtime has never been more expensive, Shell Turbo oils deliver exceptional oil life under continuous operation.
Rapid air release combines with excellent filterability to help you get the most from your turbines, time after time.
Overcome increased operating temperatures and fire hazards with an oil that not only survives, but thrives, amid thermal stresses.
Excellent load-carrying capacity means reliable performance, even under severe, peak-load operation or cyclic peak-loading conditions.
Overcome increased operating temperatures and fire hazards with an oil that not only survives, but thrives, amid thermal stresses.
Our gas-to-liquids (GTL) technology turns natural gas into high-performing liquid products. Using base oils derived from natural gas means fluids like our Shell Turbo range can offer various benefits over traditional group II/III base oils:
And the differences don’t stop there. From lower volatility to a better additive response, GTL-based oils are uniquely designed for the demanding conditions experienced by today’s modern turbines.
From turbines to turbocompressors, the Shell Turbo range covers a number of specialist applications across industrial steam, light or heavy-duty gas, and combined-cycle systems, including those with specific needs relating to:
