Innovative hybrid rotor compressor design can extend productive life of stripper wells; improved transport and efficiency, lowered operating costs

Green Car Congress

The hybrid rotor’s high volumetric efficiency increases its power density and the concentric rotation design eliminates troublesome parts from the transmission mechanisms that exist in many compressors today. Its design allows nearly frictionless operation. Conventional compressors are not optimized to handle wet gas—i.e.,
