Digital Exclusive: The value of experience—Why expertise matters in compressor overhauls and revamps
It is no exaggeration to say that without compressors, countless industries ranging from petrochemicals to brewing would grind to an almost instant halt. For the companies working in these sectors, it is critical to ensure their equipment is working efficiently and reliably. Over time, many businesses face challenges when working with the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) of their compressors. Whether due to poor service, the age of the equipment or a loss of connection with the OEM, companies often seek alternatives for repair and maintenance. However, this move can come with risks of its own, as there is no guarantee that a third party can offer the same level of performance.
