The Shell Diala Product Video Transcript

[Background music plays]

Bright, uplifting music is played in the background.

[White screen]

A yellow droplet descends from the top to the middle of the screen, transforming into a spinning roundel. This roundel includes animations of a solar panel, wind turbine, pylon and transformer. There are small animations of lubricants moving and arrows around the focal roundel.

[Spoken word]

Modern transformers are smaller but operating higher voltages, meaning oils are under greater stress than ever before.

[Frame]

A zoom into the robotic arm section of the roundel – the solar panel is glistening. Then in a clockwise motion the spinning wind turbine of the roundel appears. The roundel continues to spin, changing to the pylon and finally moves to the transformer section.

[Spoken word]

Based on gas-to-liquid or GTL technology, the Shell Diala range meets modern demands thanks to it thermal properties and fluidity.

It then zooms out to show the roundel in full – with each section of the roundel showing it's own animation. The roundel then disappears and four test tube illustrations appear with lubricant filling up in the tubes. There are bubbles of lubricant floating around the blue background.

[Spoken word]

Shell Diala S4 has the capacity to withstand severe voltage transients, thanks to significantly higher lightening impulse breakdown voltage than inhibited oil.

A zoom out appears then a grey transformer on green grass fills the screen. There are pylons in the background and small parts of lubricant are floating around the foreground.

[Spoken word]

Its specific heat and thermal capacity values are typically higher than those of conventional transformer oils, meaning it can provide cooling benefits and enable higher loading or a reduced requirement for forced cooling.

[Frame]

The grass leaves the frame and is replaced by a white background. The transformer is still the focal point and the transformer then fills up with yellow fluid. There are arrows circulating the transformer and two blue icons appear either side of the transformers. Once icon includes a snowflake and one icon has a kilogram weight – the icons then turn yellow.

[Spoken word]

Shell Diala S5 BD is made for modern transformers. Low viscosity and low pourpoint provide excellent cold temperature performance, even in the most unforgiving, artic climates.

The background returns to the grass background and bubbles of green, blue and yellow lubricant circle the transformer. The transformer then slides down the screen. There is a blue sky with 3 spinning wind turbines planted in a darker blue ocean. There is an animated dashed line that shoots off-screen. 3 bubbles appear one after the other next to the 3 wind turbines. The first appears on top of the middle turbine, the next appears on the right of the right turbine and the last appears on the left of the left turbine.

[Spoken word]

From the cold to the coast, its readily biodegradable status also makes it suitable for environmentally sensitive locations.

The scene then zooms past the 3 wind turbines, transporting to 3 onshore spinning wind turbines planted on green forest terrain with a blue sky. There are numerous green turbines spinning in the background. There is a grey transformer to the front of the scene.

[Spoken word]

Though none of this comes at the cost of traditional performance.

The scene then zooms past the 3 wind turbines, transporting to an onshore solar panel and transformer on brown desert terrain with a blue sky.

[Spoken word]

Designed to deliver amid increasing electricity demands, excellent cooling and heat transfer properties enable superior system efficiency and robust resistance to oil aging or degradation, extending oil life so transformers can work harder for longer.

The transformer then is placed onto a blue background with a pylon. A yellow roundel appears in the foreground with a dial from dark grey to red. The arrow in the middle spins from grey to red. The roundel then drops off screen leaving behind a city scape of the skyline.

[Spoken word]

The Shell Diala range has been supplied to the power industry for more than 50 years and, thanks to Shell’s GTL technology, will continue to provide wide-ranging benefits for years to come.

A roundel split into 4 sections appears on a white background. This roundel includes animations of a solar panel, a white spinning wind turbine, a pylon and a transformer. There are small animations of lubricants moving and arrows around the focal roundel.

The dark grey animated container representing the Shell Diala product appears in the middle of the roundel. The product is zoomed into and becomes larger, resulting in the disappearance of the roundel. There are small animations of lubricants moving and arrows around the focal product.

The Shell Diala product then shoots left off-screen, revealing the "Shell.com/Diala" text in red.
