ExxonMobil is commemorating eight decades of protecting and helping
extend the lives of heavy duty diesel engines around the world with
the 80th anniversary of its Mobil Delvac(TM) engine oil. Since its
introduction in 1925, Mobil Delvac oil -- Delvac, short for
"D"iesel "E"ngine "L"ubricants "VAC"uum -- has provided power and
protection for truck engines around the world in all conditions --
from the extreme heat in Egypt's deserts to the freezing conditions
across Siberia, from the mountainous regions of Peru to the
super-highways and narrow byways of North America and Europe.
Throughout its 80-year history, Mobil Delvac has set the benchmark
for lubrication excellence. The company's commitment to research
and technological development, and global availability, has made
Mobil Delvac one of the world's most widely used brands of heavy
duty engine oil today. "Research and engineering excellence is the
foundation for which ExxonMobil and its products have always been
known," said Mike Mullins, vice president - global marketing,
ExxonMobil Lubricants & Specialties. "In formulating and
proving Mobil Delvac products, we have teams of lubrication experts
who specialize in heavy duty vehicle engine technology, that
conduct comprehensive laboratory testing and extensive field trials
to closely study all the performance attributes required in today's
heavy duty engines." Each year, ExxonMobil commits significant
financial resources to its research and product development. In
fact, over the past decade, ExxonMobil has spent more than $100
million on research, testing and upgrading its Mobil Delvac family
of heavy duty engine oils to ensure they meet or exceed the latest
and most advanced industry and original equipment manufacturers
(OEM) specifications from around the world. Mobil Delvac technology
is chosen by the world's top five heavy-duty truck engine OEMs and
has over 2,000 different builder approvals and preferential
endorsements that cover over 300 different global and local
builders. "ExxonMobil works closely with the world's leading heavy
duty diesel engine manufacturers on nearly every major issue
impacting lubricant technology, such as joint product development,
formulation science and the creation of new specifications and
testing methods," said Steve Kennedy, senior scientist, ExxonMobil
Research and Engineering Company, and co-chair of the American
Petroleum Institute's Diesel Engine Oil Advisory Panel. "This
ensures that Mobil Delvac heavy duty engine oils meet and exceed
the latest industry and OEM specifications, and deliver consistent
quality and performance to help our customers extend the life of
their engines, no matter where in the world they are located or
what type of equipment they operate." With its signature black
packaging, Mobil Delvac is available on the shelves of retail
outlets and major truck stops that sell heavy-duty lubricants
around the world. To raise awareness of Mobil Delvac's anniversary
of service to heavy duty and commercial truck owner operators
worldwide, ExxonMobil is planning celebratory activities in key
global markets where truckers and fleet managers select Mobil
Delvac as an oil brand of choice. For more information about Mobil
