Case Study: Marathon Oil achieves reliable remote power with Capstone Green Energy microturbine

Marathon Oil - Customer Case Study

Marathon Oil needed reliable power for a remote gas transmission site in Kenai, Alaska, where harsh winter conditions made operations difficult. The company had been using a diesel generator that required frequent refueling, creating extra maintenance and effort. Capstone Green Energy provided a Capstone C30 microturbine to meet the site’s power needs.

Capstone Green Energy’s C30 microturbine runs on the gas Marathon Oil is already pumping, eliminating the need for diesel deliveries and frequent operator intervention. The system has delivered dependable power at temperatures well below freezing, helping Marathon Oil operate its remote Alaska site more simply and reliably with no measurable performance data provided in the case study.
