Castrol BioTac OG

Castrol BioTac OG is a highly tenacious high performance open gear lubricant developed specifically for the rack and pinion jacking mechanism of self-elevating mobile drilling rigs. This is one of the most arduous environments to which a lubricant can be exposed – not only is it subject to high loads and water washing in the splash zone, it also has to provide protection against corrosion to both the rack and pinion between rig moves.

Description

Castrol BioTac OG is a highly tenacious high performance open gear lubricant developed specifically for the rack and pinion jacking mechanism of self-elevating mobile drilling rigs. This is one of the most arduous environments to which a lubricant can be exposed – not only is it subject to high loads and water washing in the splash zone, it also has to provide protection against corrosion to both the rack and pinion between rig moves. In addition, this is one area of operation where a lubricant is deliberately introduced to the marine environment in the course of normal use. The oceans and seas constitute the major part of our planet, using an environmentally responsible open gear lubricant can minimise environmental impact in comparison to conventional mineral oil based greases.
Castrol BioTac OG has been specifically formulated to minimise impact upon the marine environment. All the components of Castrol BioTac OG have been selected for their reduced environmental impact, either from the PLONOR* list of chemicals or following a thorough assessment of their biodegradability, potential for bioaccumulation and their toxicity towards marine species. As a result, Castrol BioTac OG is OSPAR compliant and contains no substitutable components.
*PLONOR – Pose Little or No Risk to the Environment (according to the OSPAR definition).
