Single source solutions for onshore oil and gas production and processing
Oil and gas operators around the world seek to keep the life-cycle costs of their equipment for onshore oil and gas processing down and ensure the best possible return on their investment. At the same time the equipment used for such operations is expected to provide the utmost in reliability, availability and safety on a day-to-day basis.
Cost-saving, integrated solutions through a single source supplier
Based on its long-standing relationships in the oil and gas industry, Siemens understands the needs and demands of its customers and how to deliver complete, single-source solutions for all of their oil and gas field power, compression and pumping requirements.
From wellhead to export, Siemens oil & gas portfolio includes equipment for all stages of onshore production, including gas lift, gas treatment, export gas compression, power supply. Dedicated compression solutions are available for dirty-gas applications, tight-gas production, and for mature fields requiring a wide operating area. Completely integrated facility automation and control systems provide for consistent operations management from the local control room to the dispatching center.
Moreover, the Siemens scope of supply covers the entire lifecycle of equipment and assets, ensuring long-term reliability and ideal investment protection.
