Signs Your Generator Needs Attention

While routine oilfield generator maintenance should be performed according to the unit’s owner’s manual recommendations, other factors may impact how often generator service is required.

For instance, if your generator runs for a high-power-demand job (10,000+ hours), your unit should be serviced more often to ensure optimal performance. In comparison, a backup unit that is rarely used will likely need less service than your primary unit. Otherwise, regardless of how your oilfield generator is being operated, if you notice leaks on the floor or ground or odd noises coming from your unit, it’s time to get a technician in to service your generator.

However, regardless of runtime, generator type, or work conditions, every generator requires routine maintenance and service. At D&R Generators, we recommend calling and getting your oilfield generator serviced every two weeks following two full weeks of total runtime. That way, our mechanics can ensure your unit continues to function at peak performance.
