Addressing the challenges faced by the cement industry and with a vision to enhance overall operations, Mobil™ provides exceptional gear and bearing oils, which have been designed to provide outstanding results along with benefits in driving energy-efficiency.

India is currently witnessing an enhanced demand across sectors, including commercial and industrial construction. Fulfilling evolving market demand and as the second-largest producer of cement in the world, the Indian cement industry’s production capacity is expected to reach 550 MMT by 2025. Duly, businesses in the sector are increasingly focusing on adopting strategies that are efficient, productive and profitable as well as looking aggressively for solutions to address lubrication-related difficulties.

Mobil SHC™ 600 Series
Mobil SHC™ 600 Series is a formulation that has outstanding thermal stability and oxidation resistance. It can function well even in high-temperature conditions resulting in longer oil life, less frequent maintenance, and higher equipment uptime, all of which are essential for productivity in the demanding cement sector.
The Mobil SHC 600 Series also excels at protecting against severe pressure, protecting industrial gearboxes from wear, and ensuring smooth operation even under heavy loads and vibrations. It improves dependability and lowers the chance of unexpected downtime. These synthetic lubricants have also reduced energy consumption in gearboxes and have demonstrated up to 3.6 per cent improvement in energy efficiency in controlled laboratory testing*.
In a diverse country like India, where industries stumble upon varying climates and operating conditions, Mobil’s lubrication solutions are proving invaluable in combating issues such as high temperature, heavy loads. The series has earned the trust of companies in the cement industry with its established record in maximising engine life and minimising maintenance expenses. In a sector where operational excellence is non-negotiable, Mobil SHC 600 Series emerges as a catalyst for productivity, performance and profitability.

*Energy efficiency relates solely to the performance of Mobil SHC 600 when compared to conventional (mineral) reference oils of the same viscosity grade in circulating and gear applications. The technology used allows up to 3.6 per cent efficiency compared to the reference when tested in a worm gearbox under controlled conditions. Efficiency improvements will vary based on operating conditions and application.

Tamil Nadu is set to host one of India’s five national carbon capture and utilisation (CCU) testbeds, aimed at reducing CO2 emissions in the cement industry as part of the country’s 2070 net-zero goal, as per a news report. The facility will be based at UltraTech Cement’s Reddipalayam plant in Ariyalur, supported by IIT Madras and BITS Pilani. Backed by the Department of Science and Technology (DST), the project will pilot an oxygen-enriched kiln capable of capturing up to two tonnes of CO2 per day for conversion into concrete products. Additional testbeds are planned in Rajasthan, Odisha, and Andhra Pradesh, involving companies like JK Cement and Dalmia Cement. Union Minister Jitendra Singh confirmed that funding approvals are underway, with full implementation expected in 2025.
