Oil & Gas

Challenges call for solutions

Staying within a defined budget and time schedule is extremely important to the oil and gas industry. This is especially true when dealing with offshore operations, which can be exceedingly complex and costly.

In drilling and production operations, components have to withstand harsh conditions and have to work effectively to reduce downtime and save costs. One aspect which helps to ensure this is the use of the right lubricant.
