Aggreko, the world’s leading provider of temporary power, heating, cooling and oil-free air compressors, is now partnering with Relevant Solutions LLC to bring oil-free air compressors to the rental market. Relevant Solutions, formerly known as Industrial Compressor Services, specializes in the design and packaging of large, centrifugal oil-free air compressors for the rental market.
Aggreko’s manufacturing, air separation, petrochemical and refining customers often use these types of compressors for permanent utility installations, Aggreko said. With a large customer base in North America, Aggreko can use this strategic partnership to expand its fleet size across 60 service centers to provide additional coverage to industries that require large volumes of 100-percent oil-free air as a part of their process.
“After several years of operating on a project-specific basis, it is gratifying to get a formal agreement in place that allows both of our companies to seamlessly meet the needs of customers,” said Mark Shedd, head of oil-free air compressors, Aggreko North America.
Aggreko recently completed the installation of 165,000 standard cubic feet per minute of oil-free compressed air and 33 MW of power along with associated accessories. The installation will allow a major refinery to replicate the feed-air blower for one of its coker units and support continued daily operations without experiencing costly downtimes.
