Modular compression for stable, low-pulsation gas delivery
Our Gas Compression Skids are engineered systems designed to compress and stabilize low to medium pressure gas streams in continuous industrial operations. These systems deliver steady flow with minimal pulsation, making them well suited for vapor recovery, fuel gas, and process gas applications. Backed by CRA’s process and mechanical engineering expertise, the compression skids integrate the compressor, driver, piping, instrumentation, and controls into a single modular package. The design emphasizes smooth operation, compact footprint, and reliable performance when handling variable gas compositions and fluctuating flow conditions.

What is a Gas Compression Skid?
A gas compression skid is a modular, skid-mounted system that compresses and stabilizes low to medium pressure gas streams for continuous industrial operations, integrating the compressor, driver, piping, instrumentation, and controls into a single package.
How it works
Gas moves through inlet conditioning, compression, and pulsation control in sequence before it leaves the skid at the required discharge pressure.
Gas enters the skid through inlet scrubbing and filtration, removing liquids and particulates before it reaches the compressor.
The conditioned gas passes through the compressor stage, where pressure is raised to the required discharge level.
Pulsation dampeners and piping layout minimise flow disturbances downstream of the compressor.
Key Benefits
Steady, low-pulsation compression protects downstream equipment and improves process stability.
Designed for uninterrupted service in applications with variable gas flow and composition.
Skid-mounted construction minimizes space requirements and simplifies transport and installation.
Simple mechanical layouts support long service life with reduced routine maintenance.
Careful equipment selection and system integration ensure efficient and reliable operation.
