Siemens opens doors to new facility serving Gulf Coast O&G industry
Siemens opened the doors of a new service center in Geismar, La, devoted to serving the region’s oil and gas industry, and related markets. Judy Marks, CEO for Siemens USA and Executive Vice President for New Equipment Solutions at the Dresser-Rand business, and Tim Holt, CEO for Siemens Power Generation Services Division, were among several senior executives who joined employees for a special ribbon cutting ceremony at the facility.
With 28,000 square feet of shop floor space, onsite engineers and manufacturing technicians at the service center bring global technology to the Gulf Coast’s oil and gas market. The service center features the latest technology to repair and rebuild critical equipment such as centrifugal and reciprocating compressors, steam turbines, expanders, pumps, and rotary compressors.
“Siemens is a global company that is also a local partner. That’s particularly true here in the Gulf Coast,” said Judy Marks, CEO Siemens USA and Executive Vice President for New Unit Solutions at the Dresser-Rand business. “As Louisiana continues to help lead America’s oil and gas revolution, this new facility will bring the services we provide our customers to an even higher level.”
For oil and gas customers, Siemens supplies a broad spectrum of products, services and solutions that support upstream, midstream and downstream applications. With its acquisition of Dresser-Rand and the addition of Rolls-Royce Energy’s aero-derivative gas turbine business, Siemens has an installed base of more than 130,000 compressors, gas turbines and steam turbines.
Siemens has over 200 employees in Louisiana, serving the energy, healthcare and building technologies sectors.
