Produced chemicals such as H2S, CO2, condensates, other hydrocarbon solvents, along with crude oil & natural gas and injected media such as frac acid and gas compositions can all have a major impact on the condition of the valve cavity lubricant.  This can result in the lubricant being dissolved and displaced from the valve cavity, rendering the initial valve components dry, exposed to wear and damage from increased friction.  A cavity devoid of lubricant will also permit the ingress and entrapment of contaminants in the valve cavity, such as corrosive fluids or sand. This can cause severe valve operational problems, including damage to the component sealing surfaces, an increase in the required actuation torque or force, or worst case in seizure of the valve.  Routine valve re-lubrication using a preventative maintenance and will ensure optimum valve protection.
