Extend oil drains and reduce engine failures

Mobil Delvac™ Extreme helps Conway Beam Leasing extend oil drains and reduce engine failures

Objective

To improve fleet efficiency and uptime

  • Volvo and Mack Trucks
  • Rochester, New York, United States

Situation

Conway Beam Leasing, a premier sales and rental company, operates over 600 Volvo and Mack trucks with both local and long haul services across the Unites States. With a quickly growing fleet, Ed Dunlop, Director of Operations, desired to reduce the Total Cost of Ownership for the fleet through extended oil drains and improved preventative maintenance. Ed believed that through oil analysis they could achieve these goals. To help achieve this goal, Conway Beam Leasing approached us as their lubricants distributor.

Solution

The Mobil ServSM Engineering team and our Lubricants team evaluated the fleet's oil program. After conducting a thorough evaluation, the decision was made to change the engine oil to Mobil DelvacTM Extreme 10W-30, which is capable of doubling OEM -recommended oil drain intervals. Additionally, the team helped implement Mobil ServSM Lubricant Analysis to monitor component and oil health while also capitalizing on the enhanced product performance characteristics.

Results

After implementing the new strategy built around Mobil DelvacTM Extreme 10W-30 engine oil, Conway Beam Leasing was able to safely extend oil drain intervals to 55,000 miles.

Additionally, through the expertise of the Mobil Serv Engineering team and our team, Conway Beam Leasing was able to proactively catch and correct six catastrophic engine failures. This resulted in the company's estimated savings of over $133,000.
