John Crane expands service center to support LNG applications

John Crane revealed the expansion of its service super center in Singapore plus the opening of two facilities in Malaysia: a sales and service office in Kuala Lumpur and a service center in Bintulu.

Significant upgrades to the Singapore service super center include improved testing capabilities, additional product refurbishment capabilities, access to more hands-on technical training and new storage and preservation services.

The dry gas seal test center now includes an observation center allowing customers to monitor dynamic testing of their seals in real time. In addition, the test rig is being upgraded to handle the larger diameter seals and higher testing speeds required for newer LNG applications in Southeast Asia and Australia, the company said in a statement.

The expanded training center has additional classes and an area dedicated to hands-on training. This will help customers meet the increasing need to drive reliability improvements by upskilling plant maintenance and reliability engineers.

The company anticipates opening additional service facilities in the region within the next 12 months.
