Hello,

I have phoned around many of the specialty vendors I know of and have not been able to source a manufacturer for a natural gas booster. Maybe someone here can point me in the right direction.

Application: Increase pressure of 30 scmh of natural gas from a pipe line from 1000 kPag (145 psig) to 9000 kPag (1305 psig) for injection into an oil well.

Can anyone recommend a vendor and the type of machine I should look into? I thought of a recipricating compressor or gas pump but can't find a vendor to do the low flow and high pressure.

Thanks.

This is definately a recip application. The class of the industry is Ariel at but there are any number of other manufacturers and there are thousands of packagers anxious for your call.
