來自 Dresser-Rand的HOSS™壓縮機是一款大型的速度裝置，此裝置可采用新近的更高的馬力引擎以傳統方式包裝。 休斯頓2007年12月13日消息，Dresser-Rand推出一款創新的，專門設計用于油田的高馬力壓縮機。這些應用包括：氣舉、氣體收集、管道增壓、氣體輸送、地下氣體存儲（輸入和中斷）、燃氣加壓、填埋氣體回收和相關應用。 隨著世界范圍內天然氣體消耗的增長，國家繼續增加對液化石油氣，液化天然氣工程增加投入。受能源價格增長、環境壓力、技術改進和市場需求增長的驅動，對天然氣壓縮機的需求得到了提高。 為了滿足需求，Dresser-Rand已經開發了HOSS™壓縮機，一個重型HOS™壓縮機生產線的補充，證明了此壓縮機在耐用性和可靠性方面受到了青睞。以“超級HOS”著稱的壓縮機，在Dresser-Rand授權的分銷商處可進行購買。 依照Dresser-Rand可分離往復業務部業務開發經理Gary Tas所言，HOSS壓縮機是專門用于滿足客戶對更大、更高馬力氣田壓縮機需求而開發的，并能以傳統方式包裝。 設計建造用于處理低含硫天然氣、高含硫天然氣、丙烷、二氧化碳、空氣、氮和其它更多氣體，HOSS壓縮機能夠移動大量氣體。Tas闡述說：“HOSS對涉及氣體收集、氣體存儲和氣體傳輸的大型壓縮非常適用。事實上，在一些應用上其可以滿足減少曲柄行程的傳統操作要求。” 耐用性設計及經現場證明的可靠性 HOSS壓縮機有雙拐曲、四拐曲及六拐曲或供選擇。其架構比HOS壓縮機的架構要更長、更高且更寬（供給大量的運行裝置），為更高的承載能力提供完整的十字向導（比固定擴展要好）。重型鑄鋼機軸用于壓力潤滑的平衡和膛線鉆孔，平衡雙拐和四拐架構使水平力矩最小化。 HOSS壓縮機利用HOS汽缸的高壓陣形。因為HOSS壓縮機的活塞桿尺寸（與HOS樣式相反）增高到了2.875 （73 mm），需要不同的活塞和桿、包裝盒和框架端連接。附加在桿上的活塞利用Superbolt扭矩螺母，排除了在使用活塞桿時對V形塊及特殊工具的需要。 關于Dresser-Rand Dresser-Rand世界范圍內石油、天然氣、石化和過程工業的旋轉設計解決方案提供商之一，公司在美國、法國、德國、挪威和印度擁制造工廠，有27個網上服務網點，服務支持的覆蓋面可達140多個國家。更多關于Dresser-Rand消息請登錄：www.dresser-rand.com. [FONT=times] original text [/FONT] [font=times][Color=#708090]The new HOSS™ compressor from Dresser-Rand is a larger, medium-speed unit that can be conventionally packaged with the latest, higher horsepower engines. HOUSTON, December 13, 2007 – Dresser-Rand has introduced an innovative, high-horsepower compressor designed specifically for gas field applications that include gas lift, gas gathering, pipeline boosting, gas transmission, underground gas storage （injection and withdrawal）, fuel gas boosting, landfill gas recovery, and related applications. As natural gas consumption grows worldwide, countries continue to increase investments in liquid petroleum gas （LPG）, liquefied natural gas （LNG）, and gas-to-liquid （GTL） projects. Driven by rising energy prices, environmental pressures, improved technologies, and growing markets, these projects increase the demand for natural gas compressors. To meet this demand, Dresser-Rand has developed the HOSS™ compressor, a heavy-duty addition to the HOS™ （heavy oilfield separable） compressor line that has proven to be rugged and reliable in the gas field market. Also known as the "SuperHOS" compressor, the HOSS compressor can be purchased or leased in standard or custom packages through Dresser-Rand authorized distributors. According to Gary Tas, business development manager for the Dresser-Rand Separable Reciprocating Business Unit, "The HOSS compressor was developed to meet clients‘ needs for a larger, higher horsepower gas field compressor that could still be conventionally packaged." HOSS compressors are designed for 75,000 lb. （333.6 kN） combined rod load in either tension or compression and 87,000 lb. （387 kN） frame load. Designed and built to handle sweet natural gas, sour natural gas, propane, carbon dioxide, air, nitrogen, and most other gases, the HOSS compressor is capable of moving large volumes of gas. "It‘s an excellent fit for large compression projects involving gas gathering, gas storage, and gas transmission," Tas explained. "In fact, in some applications it can meet traditional operating requirements with a reduced number of crank throws." Rugged Design Features and Field-proven Reliability The HOSS compressor is available in two-, four-, and six throws. Its frame is longer, taller, and wider than the HOS compressor frame （to accommodate larger running gear）, and features integral crosshead guides （rather than bolt-on extensions） for higher load carrying capacity. The heavy-duty, forged steel crankshaft is balanced and rifle-drilled for pressure lubrication and has counterweight on two- and four-throw frames to minimize horizontal moments. The HOSS compressor uses the high-pressure lineup of HOS cylinders. Because the piston rod size in the HOSS compressor （as contrasted to the HOS model） has been increased to 2.875 in （73 mm）, the HOSS requires a different piston and rod, packing case, and associated machining at the frame end to accommodate both. Pistons are attached to the rod using a Superbolt torque nut that eliminates the need for v-blocks and special tools when servicing the piston and rod.
