Oil and gas

Pump, compressor and fan drives for pipelines, gas plants and refineries, certified for hazardous areas and built for 50 °C heat and sand.

What matters here

Oil and gas sites are hard on motors: zone 1 and zone 2 hazardous areas, 50 °C summers, fine sand and salt air near the coast. Our oil and gas motors are certified Ex db and Ex ec to ATEX and IECEx, built with IP66 enclosures and class H insulation options, and our drive houses are cooled to deliver full output at 50 °C.

Because many sites are hours from the nearest city, we design for as little site work as possible. Drive systems arrive as a tested drive house, and our service centres in Jubail, Mussafah, Muscat and Kuwait City hold critical spares for the sites they support.

Questions from oil and gas customers

Do you supply motors for zone 1 hazardous areas?

Yes. Ex db flameproof motors to ATEX and IECEx for zone 1 gas areas, and Ex ec and Ex tb motors for zone 2 and dust zones.

How quickly can you replace a failed pump motor?

We keep a pool of loan motors at each service centre. A like-for-like loan is usually on site within 48 hours anywhere in the GCC while the original is repaired.

Can you monitor our drives remotely?

Yes. Vibration and temperature sensors report to our service centre, and we call you when a trend needs attention.
