Reliable, high performance compressors for all applications Advanced technology components Advanced design procedures Manufacturing techniques First hand, on-site experience
Our balanced-opposed compressors can operate at speeds up to 1200 rpm. Designed to API 618, these heavy-duty units are expressly made for continuous duty in the Oil & Gas industry. They are designed for direct drive with reciprocating engines or electric motors, creating a compact, easy-to-ship, and low-vibration compression package. These machines are available in two different frame sizes, as well as a fully balanced version that is particularly well suited for offshore applications.

In addition, we can supply the complete range of products for the installation, including gas turbines, steam turbines, compressors, control systems, and air coolers.
high efficiency high flow applications broad operating range robustly designed for optimum aerodynamic and mechanical behavior
HE-S Compressor
Our HE-S is the only reciprocating compressor capable of 750 rpm gas-engine direct drive at 9 MW and above. Not only is it powerful, but also suitable for both high and low-speed API 618 and API 11P applications, and is an ideal solution for API 618 moderate speed service. It's available with 2, 4, or 6 throws, 15300 kW nominal max power at full speed (6 throws) and 800 rpm max speed.
Horizontally Split
Horizontally split compressors are used primarily for low and medium pressure applications in ethylene and fertilizer plants refineries, LNG for refrigeration, air compression, etc. The GE product line covers all market needs from standardized equipment to cutting-edge compression solutions such as state-of-the-art compressors for LNG plants. We can also supply the complete range of products for installations including gas turbines, steam turbines, compressors, control systems and air coolers.
Standardized advance technology components Custom configuration Proven over a wide range of process conditions High performance & reliability
Integrally Geared
Integrally Geared Compressors are used in several refinery, petrochemical CCS/EOR and applications, either for low/high-flow, or low/high pressure conditions. This type of compressor has from one to four high speed pinions and the bull gear can be driven directly by an electric motor or by a turbine (gas or steam). One or two impellers, open or closed, tridi or bidi-mensional type can be mounted on each pinion-shaft. Optimal impeller speed and the ability to inter-cool compression stages guarantee very high efficiency. A large variety of gases can be handled by this compressor line with appropriate construction materials, seal and control systems.
High efficiency and operating range Very high reliability Easy to maintain Units prepackaged and tested at factory for ease of installation No special foundations required
The solution is ideal for gas storage, pipeline applications, and upstream or downstream clean dry services up to 15 MW. Key benefits include:
Up to 15 MW in-line or back-to-back Trip history (if any) Elimination of almost all external auxiliary systems Capable of high pressure ratios and wide operating ranges Fewer and easier maintenance requirements Low noise and no emissions Low operating cost
both worlds - the reliability and pulsation-free rotary motion of centrifugal compressors. Screw compressors are also the best choice for applications in which no other compressor can operate economically. They can easily handle dirty, polymer forming process gases and process gases with entrained liquids.
Precise rotors and shafts Shaft seals that isolate and protect Dependable thrust bearings Timing gears designed for consistent clearances Choice of flange locations Zero leakage drive shaft seal Heavy-wall radial bearings for extra support Strong, stable compressor frame
Overhung compressors are mainly used as boosters in petrochemical applications or for recycle in polypropylene and polyethylene plants. The single-stage overhung configuration is simple and easy to maintain. Almost all gases can be handled by this type of compressor with appropriate construction materials and seal systems.
Pipeline
These compressors are specifically designed for pipeline compression stations. They are used for low and medium pressure ratio pipeline service and in recycle applications such as those performed in methanol plants, etc.

For more than 50 years, GE has served the oil and gas industry in the design and manufacture of air-cooled heat exchangers. Commonly used in industrial applications, aircooled exchangers are used where a reliable source of water is not available as a cooling medium. Even when water is available, air-cooled exchangers are sometimes favored for economic or operational reasons. Robust and reliable for all loads and applications, GE offers both forced and induced draft configurations. All models plug box, cover plate, and pipe and bend are available in both configurations. ASME certified, our manufacturing plant strictly meets ISO 9001 standards.
