Annual compressor production INCREASED by 40%.

“It’s fair to say that what we are most proud of on this project is exceeding the customer’s expectations in terms of being able to combine very high performance and flexibility in the installed system. In fact, the most exciting aspect was the team spirit that dominated the development of the project as a whole. Four teams on three different continents, often with very different visions, styles and methods, were able to take each other’s point of view as part of the continuous enrichment.”
