Our company is trying to locate a simple computer program whereby we can analyze costs of utility power versus natural gas or diesel generator sets either in synchronous or induction use for prime or peak shaving operations. Does anyone know of a source?
I have never quite understood why the small and big block gas engines in the "oil patch", configured as 40 to 100hp hydraulic power units primarliy for PC pump applications, had such a short life span until recently. In the majority of cases the operating time between MOH is less than...
Jim,
Our company is currently receiving many requests for just such a system. Obviously the process is not new - but the demand has been low overall to date especially with relatively low KW demand (200kw and less). Now though, with the rising high electrical rates spawned by deregulation, the...

If your system on the platform is for monitoring,i.e. non motor loads, we have found the most reliable way is to have a small 1800rpm diesel genset in conjunction with a inverter/battery supply. Pure sine wave inverters give out "clean" power and the genset can be set up for...
Our company is looking at ways to power remote locations with minimal 480v power (50 to 300kw) and sell back the unused portion to the utility. Our applications require 24/7 operation with natural gas engines (casing gas) or diesel power - Anyone have some history with these systems and/or...
