Gas Transmission & Distribution

Ivara EXP is the right solution in the right industry at the right time.

Gas Gathering & Processing

Gas is in abundant supply across North America and other parts of the world.  However, gas prices can be volatile and are subject to economic variances.  Furthermore, the natural gas industry has seen booming growth. Until recent years, little attention has been paid to aging assets, aging workers, and the newest methods and software technologies to manage assets for improved reliability and lower operating costs.

The gathering and processing of natural gas is maintenance intensive. Fractionators, centrifugal compressors and other peripheral equipment are managed using Ivara EXP to ensure reliability at the lowest cost, allowing efficient and high quality retreival, purification and delivery to the next step in the process (T&D or storage).

Transmission & Storage

Most asset management in Transmission and Storage is restricted to PM based work order management approach to reliability. Therefore, there is significant opportunity to introduce predictive technologies and condition-based maintenance software for compressor stations to increase availability, throughput rate, and quality with a sustainable reduction in costs. 

Storage methods require a rigorous maintenance program supported by Ivara EXP. For all storage methods including depleted reservoir, salt caverns and liquefied natural gas(LNG); reliability-based asset performance management is becoming the way to ensure minimal losses in volume and quality.

Distribution

Ivara EXP is the means to sustain compliance and ensure that production remains at high levels with minimum service disruption where smaller pipelines at lower pressures are found across shorter distances than the main transmission segment. For larger industrial, commercial and electric generation customers, the NOX emissions, corrosion control, valve performance, and other HSE regulations and performance issues are particular concerns for the distribution side of the natural gas business. That where EXP can help.
