Over the years, the reciprocating compression industry has seen a reduction in the number of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM) and a streamline of products available as each OEM continues to design a standard product line. Although the OEM standard product line may provide an equipment solution for many projects, there are times when a solution offered by an OEM will not meet the requirements of the project or provide an optimum solution due to delivery constraints and/or standard product offering limitations. Whatever the reason, it is often desirable to utilize a mixture of OEM equipment offerings to meet the project requirements. One such example was a project recently completed by Duke Energy Field Services (DEFS), ACI Services, Inc., and WPI, Inc. for the DEFS LaGloria Gas Plant located in Falfurias, Texas. This paper reveals the practical details in applying existing Ariel JGC Class cylinders and OEM cylinders on an existing Superior WH compressor frame in a propane refrigeration application. It will provide in detail (1) the design approach required to identify the components required to mount the cylinders on the frame, (2) requirements to refurbish the existing equipment, (3) packaging related issues, and (4) operational and maintenance requirements.
