Aggreko supplied a 3.75 MW power and 3.35 MW temperature control package for Bapco

Oil and gas production companies are known for operating in some of the harshest, most remote regions of the world – the Caspian Sea, the Arabian Desert and the North Slope of Alaska amongst others.

With more than 40 years service to the worldwide oil and gas industry, Aggreko has a reputation of prompt, reliable service and a team of knowledgeable professionals which help to keep the oil and gas industry flowing.
The power rental company offers temporary power, load testing and temperature control solutions for the oil and gas industry.
Aggreko’s capabilities go beyond simple equipment availability – its technical teams have the knowledge and experience to work with oil and gas customers to develop innovative solutions from commissioning, operations and emergencies to decommissioning the projects.
Fast and temporary power is required during the many stages of an oil and gas project and Aggreko provides its specialised services for a variety of applications. These applications include providing onshore and offshore temporary power, purpose built drill rig power modules, load bank testing of the power systems, cooling for process applications, oil-free air for platform instrumentation, emergency back-up and contingency planning.
Aggreko’s experience and expertise in the design, installation, commissioning and operation of multi-megawatt power packages frees the end-user to focus on their own core operations.

Construction phase power generation
It is common practice for developers to invest capital in power generation plants during the construction phase of a project. At the end of the project, this power equipment is often of little value and may even create back end costs complications when assets are liquidated.
Aggreko provides the solution by supplying the required power only for the duration of construction of the project.
Aggreko offers a turnkey power solution that includes the supply and management of personnel, spares and consumables. Aggreko manages the total power needs of the project to deliver consistent, reliable power, when and where it is needed.

Power for early production
There is enormous commercial pressure to produce oil as early as possible to maximise cash flow for projects. To facilitate this, the conversion of existing vessels, and refurbishment of production facilities is a becoming increasingly popular.
Temporary power systems provided by Aggreko are well suited to power these applications, both during the fabrication and refurbishment phases as well as providing power for the facility when it is fully operational.

Facility power for commissioning and first production stages
Aggreko can install temporary power systems in very short timescales allowing their clients to fast track projects without making upfront capital expenditure commitments.
Also, the modular design of Aggreko temporary power systems allows for the upsize or downsize of power plants as the project progresses. This cuts out unnecessary expenditure as clients only pay for the power they need.
Load testing and commissioning
With a comprehensive fleet of resistive and reactive load banks, Aggreko has significant knowledge and experience in successfully delivering major load bank projects; this includes a large number of shipbuilding related contracts.

Temperature control services and process cooling
Specialised Aggreko engineers provide innovative process cooling solutions to interface temperature control and HVAC equipment into a facility process system, resulting in increased production whilst maintaining facility performance during high ambient, high demand conditions.
