Enerven Compression currently has a fleet of approximately 300 compressors with a wide range of horsepower. As with any compression services organization, maintenance accounts for a significant portion of Enerven’s day-to-day operating expenses. Enerven was looking for ways to reduce maintenance costs while still properly maintaining their equipment. They knew that maintenance was important in order to maximize the performance and longevity of their fleet. However, they also thought that there had to be a way to leverage technology to help bring down their maintenance costs. Many organizations reduce their maintenance costs by increasing the interval in the maintenance schedule. However, this approach has many pitfalls and while it could have short-term savings in operating costs, the long-term capital expenditure that may be required to replace poorly maintained equipment could far outweigh the benefits. This approach is essentially taking a short in the dark because the operator has no way of knowing when the maintenance is really needed. That is, unless one is able to remotely monitor run status. That’s Enerven decided to do. They realized that they could extend the maintenance window on their equipment and still comply with OEM guidelines if they could monitor equipment run hours. They realized that equipment is brought down for various reasons while in the field and that this time should not accrue against the maintenance schedule. After calculating reduced windshield time and increased intervals between regularly scheduled maintenance visits, Enerven anticipated a savings of 30% annually on their maintenance budget
