High performing gearbox oil
Shell’s engineers have created a wind turbine gearbox oil that delivers exceptional oil life, tested using the ASTM D2893 method. ASTM D 2893 exposes the lubricant
to heat and oxygen (in the form of air) for prolonged periods to accelerate aging. A measure of the viscosity increase at the end of the test is used to gauge the resistance to ageing. e less the lubricant thickens,
the higher its resistance to ageing. Shell’s new wind turbine gearbox oil, Shell Omala S5 Wind, was tested against the standard test, and subjected to a four-fold increase in the test duration. Shell Omala S5 Wind o ers an oil life of ten years in the eld, giving wind turbine owners and operators peace of mind of its longevity and performance in today’s challenging conditions.

Secure bolting solutions
Nord-Lock Group provides secure bolting solutions, creating a safer world by focusing on the integrity of mechanical solutions that are critical to our way of
life. e Group o ers four key technologies: Nord- Lock original wedge-locking washers with wedge locking technology that makes unintentional loosening impossible, even when exposed to severe vibration and dynamic loads. Superbolt mechanical tensioners that can accurately and safely achieve high preloads while using only hand tools. Expander System pivot pin replacements that provide a permanent solution to lug wear eliminating the need for expensive welding and line boring, and Boltight hydraulic tensioning tools which can provide a low pro le solution for space- restricted applications demanding high and accurate preloads, such as wind turbines. Together Nord-Lock Group is providing safe and innovative solutions to safeguard human lives and customer investments.

Wind engineering and climatology software
Meteodyn computes the wind through computational uid dynamics (CFD) to accurately assess the wind at the local scale. ey provide software solutions for the design and operation
of wind farms. Meteodyn WT is a software which provides an accurate assessment of the wind resource. It can compute the wind on any terrain, including forests, mountains, lakes, etc. It helps determine the best location for wind turbines to maximize production. Meteodyn SPA is a software for wind farm monitoring and maintenance optimization. It processes and analyses SCADA data to detect if a wind turbine is underperforming.
