In Alberta’s oil and gas operations, efficiency, mobility, and adaptability are critical. Production sites can vary widely in gas composition, flow rate, and environmental conditions, making flexibility in compression design essential. This is where modular skid systems deliver significant value. A modular skid system provides a compact, pre-assembled compressor package
The oil and gas industry is under increasing pressure to improve efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and maintain operational reliability. Compressor systems, critical to production, processing, and transportation, are evolving rapidly to meet these demands. New developments in smart compressor technology, IoT-enabled compressors, AI-based compressor controls, and high-pressure compressor innovations are
In Alberta’s oil and gas sector, the push for emission reduction, particularly methane reduction, is no longer just an environmental goal; it’s a regulatory requirement. Federal and provincial mandates, such as Canada’s methane regulations under the Canadian Environmental Protection Act and Alberta’s Directive 060, have set strict limits on vented
A compressor is an essential machine; a workhorse used in many industries (construction, manufacturing, automotive, oil/gas, agriculture, aerospace, HVAC, mining, pharmaceuticals, etc.). The following is a discussion of the factors that affect the lifespan of compressor units and tips to increase their longevity. Read on to learn the best practices
Sour gas is a natural gas composed of large amounts of H2S (hydrogen sulfide), created through the anaerobic decomposition of materials in oil, natural gas, swamps, sewage, stockyards, and paper/pulp processing. This corrosive, lethal gas is flammable, colourless, and has a recognizable sulfur smell. Compressing H2S is tricky as it
VOCs (volatile organic compounds) are chemicals (ethylene glycol, methylene chloride, formaldehyde, tetrachloroethylene, acetone, ethanol, etc.) emitted from solids or liquids. They may cause eye/nose/throat irritation, loss of coordination, headaches, nausea, liver/kidney/central nervous system damage, cancer, allergic skin reactions, fatigue, or dizziness. They contribute to air pollution and may react with
