When Crowley Marine Services needs a free lubricant, they always call Mobil.

Introducing chlorine-free, zinc-free Mobilgard 450 NC.

Crowley Marine Services' Invader class tugboats operate under very severe load conditions for up to seven days between ports of call. To help ensure the vessels' EMD engines perform at all times, our customer uses new Mobilgard 450 NC. Lew Cascone, Crowley's manager of engineering, says the lubricant is making a noticeable difference in the engines' overall cleanliness.

It's no surprise really. You see, we worked closely with

Crowley to field test Mobilgard 450 NC for 8,000 hours.

At the end of the test, it was clear to Crowley, EMD and

Mobil, that the new chlorine-free, zinc-free oil keeps turbocharged medium-speed diesel engines cleaner and offers better protection than the previous formulation.
