Aggreko, global leader in rental power, temperature control and oil-free compressed air is expanding in Central Texas with the opening of a service center in Three Rivers, Texas, to serve oil and gas customers working remotely and without grid access in the Eagle Ford Shale region. The new 3,200-square-foot facility will offer both diesel and natural gas rental generators, a maintenance yard to service equipment, and sales, service and support.

Aggreko will supply the area with the company’s major rental product lines, including power generators from 30 kW to 1,500 kW with diesel, natural gas and propane-fired natural gas options. The company will also offer:

  • Temperature-control units including chillers, air-conditioners, cooling towers and electric heaters;
  • Oil-free air compressors, diesel and electric;
  • Refinery-grade heat exchangers.

Aggreko will also provide remote monitoring capabilities to improve its ability to troubleshoot any operational issue and optimize operating efficiency. The local service team will be supported by Aggreko’s North American network of rental facilities, equipment and technical experts from more than 50 locations.

“Aggreko has served the upstream and downstream oil and gas industry for more than 25 years in North America,” said David Dickert, midsouth area sales manager for Aggreko North America. “We are excited to get closer to our customers and the community in Central Texas and Three Rivers. Customers in the Eagle Ford Shale region are lacking utility scale power and demand partners who can provide immediate, scalable, temporary solutions along with highly responsive service resulting in increased production and reduced downtime.”

Aggreko will host a two-day Open House event at its new Three Rivers Service Center, April 10 and 11. From 12 noon to 6 p.m. each day, the festivities will include a cookout, equipment demonstrations and prizes.

“In addition to the new Three Rivers service center opening, we are also very excited to have recently received environmental management 14001 certification in 2013 and the Occupational Health and Safety Advisory Services 18001 certification in 2012,” added Dickert.
