Case Study: Compact Compression achieves 99.9% equipment uptime with Geoforce asset tracking

Compact Compression achieves 99.9% uptime with Geoforce

Compact Compression, a manufacturer in the oil and gas industry, faced a dwindling market for its wellhead gas compression systems in 2009. To survive and become more competitive, the company needed to pivot its business model and solve issues with equipment that required intensive maintenance and was prone to breakdowns. They partnered with Geoforce to help implement a remote tracking solution.

Geoforce provided its asset tracking platform and AT4 (ATrak) product to create a system that remotely monitors compressor performance and aggregates operational data. This solution enabled Compact Compression to achieve 99.9% equipment uptime for some customers, reduce technician travel time by 15%, and triple technician productivity. These results allowed the company to offer a new fixed-fee service subscription and expand into new international markets.
