Aggreko Provides Emergency Power to a Gulf Rig
The Challenge for the Customer
Technical problems with on-board generators in this Gulf of
Mexico based rig meant emergency shut-down. Restoring power
was essential to maintain production and all support services.
Aggreko’s Solution
Aggreko provided eight 800kW generator
rentals delivered and installed on the rig in
less than two days. Within a further 48 hours, power was
fully restored and the situation back to
normal.
The Benefit to the Customer
The speed of Aggreko’s response minimized lost production
and disruption. Although Aggreko was used as an emergency
solution to start with, the rental arrangement was most cost
efficient. As a result the contract was converted to a long
term lease. In the words of our customer: “This was our first
experience with Aggreko. They performed so well, we won’t hesitate
to use them again. We are very impressed.”
