Shell Turbo - Turbine Oils
Shell has developed a range of turbine oils that enables users such as power companies and process plant operators to select the oil that will deliver optimum value to their operations through enhanced protection, long oil life and high system efficiency.
Turbine oils developed to protect, designed to perform
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 prioritizing 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.
