Learn About The Online Available Retrofit Gas Compressor Service Packages

Capex in gas compression installations can take the wind away from the business. Keeping the equipment machine worthy or upgrading to better equipment will result in heavy expenditure. Upgradation costs can sometimes result in the bottom lines getting affected, with businesses taking time to come out of the capex incurred in upgrading. A Retrofit Gas Compressor package will help businesses to stay financially healthy. Here is a look at some of the advantages of retrofit gas compressor packages that help businesses to maintain existing facilities in better shape and help improve operational efficiency.

Professional expertise

It is important to choose an organization that offers superior services through professional expertise. The organization that is involved in the retrofit package should have engineers and technicians on payrolls who have the experience and technical knowledge to carry out extensive retrofits and upgrades to existing equipment to improve efficiency.

Specific services that ideally need to be a part of the package

The services that are offered by retrofit packages should ideally include the following to ensure optimal compressor performance:

• Analysis of the configuration of the compressor and its optimization
• Recommendations of replacements of components
• Services that reduce the level of emissions and noise
• Bringing down the pulsation and vibration of the compressors
• Periodic and on-demand replacement of wet gear couplings with superior components
• Offering strong support for sourcing OEM parts and components
• Technical support on-site with superior troubleshooting and re-engineering services
• Recommendations on the basis of analysis for reducing downtime
• Identification of material worth reclaiming to increase the lifespan of equipment

The services are typically classified into various packages that include:

Conversion, Modification, and Upgrade (CM&U) – This is a solution to improve the operating cost efficiency of equipment right through its operating life, by improving reliability, availability, maintainability, performance, durability, emissions, usability in existing installations.

Rich burn conversion – This converts engine from lean burn combustion to rich burn, and helps clients involved in gas compression or oil field power, by increasing output, reducing emissions, and handling diverse fuels.

Upgradation – This improves the sealing and ease of installation, with benefits such as single nut to maintain the seal and simplify the installation, reducing time by around 50%. This also reduces coolant leakage, which vastly improves the efficiency and operational costs.

A good gas compressor retrofit package should be backed by professional competence, strong domain expertise and resources. The service or the package should help to identify all components or processes that are affecting the optimal performance of the compressor. After identification, the package would then move to the sourcing feature where OEM spares and components would then require to be procured and installed in a manner that integrates seamlessly with the existing equipment. The identification of components in a retrofit package should always be directed by the objective of increasing performance and reducing operational overheads both in short term aspects as well as the long-term aspect of the operations.
