Critical Power on the High Seas

Rugged, reliable, serviceable, and built to tough specifications are all descriptive of the unique power needs of the Petroleum Industry.

This Enercon custom-designed generator set package provides power to a floating off-shore petroleum drilling, storage, and offloading facility off the African coast in the Atlantic Ocean.

Through the years, Enercon has developed a reputation for meeting all those requirements with control systems, switchgear, mechanical assemblies, enclosures & packages, and mobile equipment in almost every major oil field in the world plus many floating and anchored platforms, loading facilities, pumping & compression facilities, and Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plants.
