The Challenge

Emergency AC and power provision after unit broke down during turnaround

A Petrochemical Plant subcontractor had hired 4 Air Conditioning (AC) units from Aggreko to support them during a major turnaround at their customer’s petrochemical plant.

After one unit broke down, we were onsite within an hour with a replacement unit. At this point, with the turnaround already underway, the Petrochemical Plant realised they needed extra units of AC and power to mitigate any further risks across the plant during the Turnaround.

Any more failures would have affected production and potentially cost millions of dollars, including severe delays to the Turnaround.

Therefore the Petrochemical Plant requested directly that we provide additional AC units and power as soon as possible to ensure there was no downtime.
