GE Launches High-Speed Recip Plant in China
GE Oil & Gas has officially opened a high-speed reciprocating (HSR) compressor manufacturing plant in Shenyang, China.
The plant, which began operations in June, will build to a production capacity of 300 HSR units per year, supplementing GE’s primary HSR facility near Houston. Chinese customers CIMC Enric and Jerrywon Energy Equipments Co. bought the first HSRs made at Shenyang.
GE also announced that it will sell 260 CNG In A Box systems over the next three years to Endurance Industry of China. CNG In A Box is a small-scale, plug-and-play compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station for vehicles.
The CNG fuel station configuration that GE is supplying to Endurance features a standard-sized CNG In A Box unit with multiple, smaller “daughter” stations running off of it. The HSR compressor is an integral part of the modular CNG refueling unit.
