From 2016
"Recently, three of our colleagues from ExxonMobil Research and Engineering - Angela Galiano-Roth, Jim Carey, and Gary Dudley - were honored with a Thomas Edison patent award for their work in developing a lubricant formulated with alkylated naphthalene as the primary base stock.
When used in combination with a fully optimized additive system, the alkylated naphthalene base stock can help provide up to three times extended oil life in actual operating equipment when compared to previously known synthetic technology."
