Honeywell Process Solutions (HPS) has announced plans to expand the manufacture of oil and natural gas solutions for the Russian sector at its Arzamas plant.
This expansion will include gas measurement equipment and gas regulators for medium and high pressure applications.
It will also include new production lines, equipment and training at the company’s existing plant in the Nizhny Novgorod region of Russia. The plant is part of Honeywell’s Elster® Gazelektronika business.
Alexei Zenkevich, HPS business leader for Russia, Belarus and Armenia, said: “These oil and gas solutions are very important to the growing sector in Russia […] This is the right time to expand our range of solutions to better serve local customers with high quality products tailored to their requirements. This also aligns to the current priority of the Russian government creating opportunities for industrial growth.”
Elster Gazelektronika will add production lines at the Arzamas plant. The first is Elster gas measurement equipment, including the Q.Sonic® Ultrasonic flow meter range for measurement of gas flow and volume, the EnCal 3000 gas chromatograph for gas composition analysis, FC1 flow computers and metering skid solutions.
Elster’s gas measurement solutions are widely used in natural gas fields, at metering stations and in the transportation of gas by major oil and gas companies in Russia.
A second new line will produce Honeywell natural gas regulators for medium and high pressure applications.
Honeywell acquired Elster in 2015. The company’s Russian subsidiaries include Elster Metronica and Elster Gazelektronika.
