ExxonMobil Opens New Signum Laboratory in Asia Pacific

ExxonMobil opened its new Asia Pacific Signum Laboratory at the ExxonMobil Shanghai Technology Center. The new laboratory in China is the company’s first in the Asia Pacific region.

Signum, ExxonMobil’s oil analysis program, leverages more than 40 years of oil analysis expertise and is designed specifically to help evaluate the condition of in-service lubricants. It is a quick and non-invasive way to gauge the health of a machine and help achieve optimum performance.

“The new Signum Laboratory at the Shanghai Technology Center extends ExxonMobil’s technology footprint in China and the Asia Pacific region and enables us to better support customers in the region,” said Darrin Talley, vice president, marketing, ExxonMobil Fuels, Lubricants & Specialties Marketing Company. “With the Mobil branded lubricant business growing steadily in China and the Asia Pacific region, more and more customers are requesting superior oil analysis to improve productivity and reduce downtime. The new Signum Laboratory will help meet customers’ requests quickly through technical application expertise.”

The Signum Laboratory provides access to the Company’s centralized database of oil analysis results and is capable of handling several hundred analyses a day. The lab then generates a comprehensive analysis report for most client applications in 24 to 48 hours after sample reception.

“At ExxonMobil, we take pride in providing high quality services. Our network of engineers is globally connected to equipment builders, which gives us intimate knowledge of lubricant compositions and requirements for modern equipment. The decision to operate our own lab at the Shanghai Technology Center is a key strategy for us. By integrating this wealth of information, we are now able to provide an even more comprehensive level of service to our customers in this fast-growing and important market.” said W. Berlin Genetti, global lab operations manager, ExxonMobil Research & Engineering Company.

ExxonMobil continues to invest in China and is relocating its Lubes Technical Help Desk to the Shanghai Technology Center to serve customers even more efficiently. ExxonMobil is also planning additional testing capabilities to enhance lube application expertise and to support collaborative programs with OEMs and local universities.

In addition, ExxonMobil is expanding the lubricants blending plant in Tianjin to meet China’s growing demand for Mobil branded lubricants. The Tianjin expansion is currently underway and is expected to be completed in late 2013.
