Its value is especially clear when unexpected contaminants appear in oil and the cause is not obvious. As a result, standard fluid testing may not be able to specify the problem.

While turbine oils can be engineered for an extended service life of 10 to 20 years, various stressors such as oxidation, thermal degradation, and contamination can compromise fluid integrity earlier.

]]> Fuel Tank Sampling Best Practices https://testoil.com/program-management/blog-fuel-tank-sampling-best-practices/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=blog-fuel-tank-sampling-best-practices Mon, 28 Jul 2025 18:06:48 +0000 https://testoil.com/program-management/blog-fuel-tank-sampling-best-practices/ When it comes to fuel analysis, the accuracy of the results is only as good as the quality of the sample provided. This means that improperly collected samples can lead to misleading results, missed contamination issues, or costly equipment failures. Taking a clean, representative fuel sample from the right location(s) is crucial for getting accurate test results. Here are some best practices to help ensure you're collecting samples that will give you reliable, actionable insights.
