Solution
Our customized solution used pipeline crude oil to deliver 30 MW of energy to power the booster pump station in a remote, hilly, non-interconnected rural area. To execute this solution our team had to scrape one of the mountains, which involved tremendous engineering and construction efforts.
We provided the turnkey EPC followed by O&M for 3 years.
