Iran to produce its own Turbo Compressors

[longbrained]

Siemens Quits Iran Southern Gas Field


Iran is commissioning domestic manufacturers to make turbocompressors for South Pars gas field, after the German energy firm Siemens announced it was withdrawing its services following international sanctions on Iran, Mehr News Agency reported on April 17.

Siemens had provided all of the turbocompressors in phases one to 10 of the South Pars gas field, southern Iran, in the past two decades, but had recently delayed in delivering its orders as international sanctions grew against Iran, causing dissatisfaction among the managers of the National Iranian Oil Company, Mehr reported.

According to Mehr, the German firm recently wrote to the directors of the new phases of South Pars, saying it "could not provide services and maintain guarantees of turbocompressors in South Pars."

Mehr said that new contracts for turbocompressors and their spare parts would be granted to domestic producers, as Iran is now capable of producing the technology domestically.

Abbas Aliabadi, the head of Iran Power Plant Projects Management Company (MAPNA), has said "MAPNA is currently designing, manufacturing and installing turbocompressors in phases 13, 14 and 19 of South Pars."

Aliabadi has said that his company was prepared to undertake the manufacture of turbocompressors for more phases of South Pars, adding that sanctions were therefore "not a cause for concern".

I think Iranian turbocompressor models were shown last year, but their production was scheduled for 2014. Probably Siemens withdrawal could delay S. Gas field deployment by a bit. On the bright side - Iran will achieve self sufficiency in one more area

I don't know they can be used for such work but "Atlas Copco Iran" produce several model of Turbo compressors.

also "Oil Turbo Compressor Co." in cooperation with Siemens produced several model of turbo-compressors and as I knew they were not exactly the compressor that Siemens produced but some model that they themselves modified for the needs of Iranian oil industry .
