Caltex

Caltex provides industrial lubrication solutions designed to support the reliability, efficiency, and uptime of power generation equipment. Its lubricant portfolio covers demanding applications such as heavy-duty turbine plants, reciprocating gas engines, wind turbines, and supporting equipment across power generation facilities. For turbine systems, Chevron industrial lubricants are formulated to help protect equipment against deposits and varnish that can contribute to reduced performance and equipment failure.

For reciprocating gas engines, Caltex offers low-ash gas engine oils formulated to help control deposits and corrosive acids, reduce lubricant depletion, and extend drain intervals. Chevron also works with major OEMs to develop lubrication solutions for newer engine designs, with the aim of extending equipment service life, simplifying maintenance, and reducing operating costs. For wind turbines, its industrial gear oils help protect gearboxes and bearings against lubricant degradation, corrosion, deposits, micro-pitting, cracks, and fractures.

Beyond individual equipment protection, Chevron provides lubrication solutions and technical programs for applications across combined-cycle, gas reciprocating, and heavy-fuel power plants. Its approach integrates lubrication into plant operation and design to help improve overall efficiency, productivity, equipment reliability, and maintenance performance.
