Natural gas compressor equipment parts and services company, Global Compression Services has opened a 7,500 sq ft facility in Lafayette, Louisiana.
This new operation will provide sales and service throughout the Gulf of Mexico, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. Lafayette joins 14 other company locations and will stock inventory for nearly all of its product range.
It has the capability to test all ignition systems, control devices and rebuild compressor valves and compressor components.
The site also offers an in-house solution to custom tool fabrication, rebuilding valves up to 15 in and rods up to 2.5 in and can also rework pistons up to 20 in.
Lafayette’s team is being led by branch manager, Jon Hanson, who has 30 years’ experience in the oil and gas industry and has been with Global Compression for 11 years.
Hanson explained; “Our new Lafayette facility allows us to repair compressor parts and also stock and service the parts that we once depended on other locations to do. By doing this locally, we can drastically cut time and transportation costs.”
