Reliable Solutions for Sustainable Success in Texas

Reliable solutions, sustainable success: How Aggreko saved thousands for a Texas facility

Client:Texas Petrochemical Facility

Location:Longview, Texas (USA)

Sectors:PCR

The Challenge

Low reliability, enormous costs

The petrochemical site faced severe issues with its diesel compressors, leading to frequent downtime and production disruptions. These compressors – rented from a previous vendor – were unreliable, often failing after just a few hours of operation.

Lacking the right technical support from their previous vendor, the company struggled to maintain the consistent air supply that was crucial for its operations. As the compressors continued to malfunction, the company resorted to renting more diesel units, which further exacerbated its fueling challenges and operational costs.

Facing potential daily losses of up to $1 million per reactor in the event of air supply failure, addressing these issues and securing a reliable solution grew more and more urgent for the petrochemical site continued operations and profitability.
