Improving sustainability: Tackling fugitive emissions from reciprocating compressors
Fugitive emissions from gas compressors represent a significant issue for operators, both in terms of sustainability and operational efficiency. While leaks will not result in immediate problems or incur unplanned downtime, they should be addressed at the earliest opportunity.
Optimizing gas analysis in carbon capture, utilization and storage
As with many industrial processes, the ability to accurately measure the concentration of bulk gas—in this case CO2 (carbon capture, utilization and storage)—along with any impurities within it, provides significant benefits. This article details the latest technologies in gas analysis for these types of applications.

Drive energy efficiency and reduce emissions with dry gas sealing solutions
Centrifugal compressors play a critical role in efficiently transporting the large volumes of natural gas used as a feedstock and fuel source in industries ranging from oil and gas to petrochemicals to liquefied natural gas (LNG). An effective sealing system is crucial to keeping a compressor running at peak efficiency. This article details the benefits of utilizing dry gas seals in these operations.
Detect operator-induced faults on a liquid expander
This case study examines a fault during the startup of liquid expanders in an LNG facility.
Detecting operator-induced faults on a liquid expander
This case study examines a LNG plant that thought they found a way to shorten the start-up time for liquid expanders. The result was not as expected. Fortunately, the condition monitoring system and service specialists provided diagnostic information to understand the problem better and avoid a catastrophic failure.
Russia to mothball damaged Nord Stream pipeline
Russia's ruptured undersea Nord Stream gas pipelines are set to be sealed up and mothballed as there are no immediate plans to repair or reactivate them.
