Global Compression Services will combine the talent and expertise of these firms to raise the industry standard by offering unrivaled manufacturing capabilities in the after-market compressor parts industry

Four companies — H&S Valve, Ignition Systems and Controls (ISC), Global Compressor and Potemkin — have combined to form a new organisation that will be a solutions provider and one-stop shop for natural gas compressor equipment parts and services for operations across the globe.

Global Compression Services will utilise the unique expertise and experience of all four legacy companies to form an industry-leading portfolio of products and services.

Global Compressor is recognised for its outstanding customer service, extensive inventory and worldwide shipping capabilities. H&S Valve is renowned for providing quick turnarounds, high quality compressor part repairs and manufactured replacement parts. ISC is respected as an industry-leading service provider of engine instrumentation and serves as the largest Altronic distributorship in the world. Finally, Potemkin Industries underpins Global Compression Services’ in-house design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities.

Anthony Speer, President, Global Compression Services, says: 'Combining the talent and expertise of these great organisations allows us to provide exceptional products and services to the gas compression market. As a result, the scope of our product and service offerings will allow us to be a one-stop-shop for much of our customers’ gas compression needs.

'Our goal is to raise the industry standard of value by offering full manufacturing capabilities that are unrivaled in the after-market compressor parts industry. All our parts are engineered to meet or exceed OEM specifications, supported by quick turnarounds, custom parts and high-volume production lines.'

Global Compression Services will operate from 11 locations servicing the top shale plays in the lower 48 US states, with strong access and growth potential in the northeast (Marcellus and Utica) market. A dedicated international in-house sales team will service and co-ordinate shipping to customers across the globe.
