Remote and off-grid operations face a different energy reality than connected industrial sites. Whether the site is an oilfield operation, mining project, utility installation, work camp, or northern gas facility, energy decisions extend beyond equipment. They also affect regulatory compliance, carbon exposure, fuel logistics, uptime, capital planning, and long-term operating costs.
So, when evaluating equipment, operators must understand how gas compression, power generation, vent gas capture systems, parts and service, and rentals work together across the full compliance lifecycle.
For remote Canadian sites, the question is no longer just “What system do we need?” It is also “How do we justify it, fund it, audit it, and keep it compliant?”
Industrial propane generators are often chosen for remote, modular, and backup power applications because propane stores well, burns cleaner than diesel, and does not rely on pipeline access. For operators, however, reliability depends on more than fuel choice. A propane generator needs regular maintenance across the engine, fuel system, tank, vapour lines, controls, and safety components.
As a company, you care about your impact on the world, including your greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing them can help better the planet, but it can also have secondary implications for your business, like helping to keep or develop a reputation as a sustainable company. In addition, it can help you reduce costs, use less fuel, and help keep employees invested in the company because they know their employer is responsible and sustainable.
Plus, those in the industrial and manufacturing sectors have a large role to play, as a relatively large percentage of our nation’s greenhouse emissions come directly from these industries. But office buildings and even retail can reduce their greenhouse gas emissions too.
Here are ten tips for reducing your company’s greenhouse gas emissions.
Remote industrial sites such as oilfield camps, mining operations, construction projects, infrastructure builds, and off-grid facilities often lack pipeline access or grid reliability. Rural propane power generation fills this gap with dependable, clean-burning generators that run on stored fuel delivered by truck.
Propane suits these applications because tanks enable placement anywhere without utility ties. At 24/7 Compression, we specialize in custom generator packages for oil and gas, utilities, manufacturing, and remote projects across Alberta and Western Canada. Our systems support natural gas, diesel, and propane fuels with in-house control panels, CWB-certified structural fabrication, electrical assembly, and full factory acceptance testing for quick on-site startup and minimal maintenance.
This guide examines why propane works well for rural power needs, key advantages, setup steps, cost factors, and compliance tips to help you select the right solution.
When it comes to the natural gas compression industry, there are always a series of obstacles to overcome. One major obstacle is how to balance cost and effectiveness in the overall design, functionality, and operation of your compression equipment. Here we discuss what to consider for compressor selection.
Industrial sites need reliable backup power to avoid shutdowns during outages. If you're comparing natural gas vs propane generators, it’s good to know both are clean-burning options. However, they differ in supply methods, performance, and costs.
24/7 Compression creates custom generator packages for oil and gas, manufacturing, utilities, and related fields. Systems include in-house control panels, structural fabrication, and complete factory acceptance testing for smooth setup. This guide covers the main differences to support your decision in selecting the best backup power solution for your business.
An industrial generator is a must-have for any factory, hospital, school, or corporate organization that intends to operate without interruption. The need for constant standby power in some industries cannot be ignored because it promotes a sense of safety and security, which can, in turn, boost work efficiency, cost efficiency, and productivity. That said, in which cases is it wisest to rent vs buy an industrial generator?
In the following sections, we provide a thorough breakdown of industrial generators, the various individual benefits of generator rentals and purchases, and finally, when to rent or when to buy an industrial generator.
Vent Gas Capture Systems (VGCS) convert routine vent streams into useful gas while maintaining zero or near-zero backpressure at the source. The result is measurable emissions reduction, cleaner reporting, and improved site efficiency without disrupting existing equipment.
Vent Gas Capture Systems (VGCS) are a powerful tool in reducing methane emissions in natural gas operations. In Canada, where emissions regulations are tightening and taxes are on the rise, the demand for VGCS in industrial environments is growing steadily.
If you're managing an upstream or midstream facility and searching for practical ways to reduce vented methane, improve ESG performance, or meet regulations like Canada's federal methane reduction rules, this guide is for you.
The oil and gas industry continues to feel increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, with methane mitigation emerging as a top priority. Methane, a potent GHG with a global warming potential (GWP) approximately 25 times greater than carbon dioxide, is frequently released during production, compression, and storage activities.
Vent Gas Capture Systems (VGCS) have become a reliable, field-proven solution to address routine venting and recover valuable hydrocarbons. This article provides a detailed, engineering-focused overview of vent gas capture technology, its applications, system advantages, and considerations for implementation.
