Integrally -geared technology
As the industry’s most efficient and compact design, our integral- gear technology delivers multiple-speed capability that allows each pinion to run at the optimum speed, giving the best efficiency possible.
Compared to traditional high pressure BOG technology, the inherent design of an IGC offers significant CAPEX and OPEX savings. CAPEX costs are reduced due to the BOG compressor mounting six process stages – both cryogenic and warm – on a single gearbox and skid. This reduces size and the need for multiple machines to manage your process.
OPEX reductions are the result of the inherent efficiency of the IGC design. Sharing a single bull gear, each stage is custom-engineered to run at the proper speed. This, along with precisely designed impellers maximize efficiency to keep your operating costs manageable.
Using our experience in low- pressure BOG and fuel- gas boosting applications, we have combined the design features of a cryogenic compressor for the initial compression, with that of the higher pressure fuel gas boosters in a single machine.
