Abstract: In this paper we consider the following form of the so-called Mean field equation arising from the statistical mechanics description of two dimensional turbulence �egin{equation}label{eq:study} - D_g u = ho_1 (frac{e^{u}}{int_Sig e^{u} dV_g}-1)- ho_2 (frac{e^{-u}}{int_Sig e^{-u} dV_g} - 1) end{equation} on a given closed orientable Riemannian surface ($Sigma,g$) with volume 1, where $h{o}_1,h{o}_2$ are real parameters. Exploiting the variational structure of the problem and running a min-max scheme introduced by Djadli and Malchiodi, we prove that if $k$ is a positive integer, $h{o}_1$ and $h{o}_2$ two real numbers such that $h{o}_{1}in(8kpi,8(k+1)pi)$ and $h{o}_2<4pi$ then $eqrefeq:study$ is solvable.
