GENERON® IGS Awarded a Contract for Nine (9) Nitrogen Generation Units by SolarTurbines

GENERON® IGS, an affiliate of Innovative Gas Systems, has been awarded a contract to supply Nine (9) HPLC 6150 custom designed and engineered Skidded Series Nitrogen Production Units with dedicated primary air compression to be supplied to PDVSA for their MARTA - R gas field operations.

Houston, TX (PRWeb) February 15, 2007 -- GENERON® IGS, an affiliate of Innovative Gas Systems, has been awarded a contract to supply Nine (9) HPLC 6150 custom designed and engineered Skidded Series Nitrogen Production Units with dedicated primary air compression to be supplied to PDVSA for their MARTA - R gas field operations. These new Nitrogen systems will add to the nine (9) previously delivered units used in other gas field operations.

PDVSA and Solar Turbines realized early on the need to have a reliable source of on site generated Nitrogen to provide dry seal gas for the field's gas turbine compressors. In addition, a dedicated Nitrogen back up system was designed to support the primary Nitrogen units. Many projects are located in remote areas making logistics for reliable sources of Nitrogen difficult if not impossible. GENERON® IGS was selected as the supplier of these custom designed systems due to being the recognized leader in the industry for packaged on-site Nitrogen Generators. During its history, GENERON® IGS has supplied thousands of Nitrogen units worldwide for various applications in the Oil and Gas, Marine and Industrial Markets.

The GENERON® IGS NPU's are stand-alone systems that can be skid mounted or containerized and use GENERON® IGS membrane technology to provide an uninterrupted supply of gaseous nitrogen with purities from 95 - 99.5%. The GENERON IGS custom designed Nitrogen systems create efficiencies by overcoming the inconvenience and expense of pipeline or truck delivery of liquid gas, gas cylinders or liquid Dewar tanks. With the GENERON® IGS units, offshore as well as onshore facilities can eliminate their dependence on outside suppliers of Liquid Nitrogen. Nitrogen is generated on site, requiring only a supply of compressed air. With flow and purity adjustable at the push of a button, a GENERON® IGS NPU allows operators full control of their own Nitrogen supply.

Solar Turbines is recognized as a global EPC leader in the delivery of single - point engineering, procurement and construction services to a wide range of clients and applications.
