Graham Corporation bags orders for three oil refining projects in Asia

Graham Corporation, a US-based equipment supplier for the oil refining, petrochemical, and defense industries, has won $11 million in orders for three oil refining projects across Asia.

A couple of the projects are in Southeast Asia while the largest project is the first large order bagged in India by the company and is with an undisclosed new customer.

James R. Lines – Graham Corporation President and CEO said: “We believe our effective execution on strategy and our consultative selling platform enabled us to capture these awards during a period of intense competition and focus on price. We believe that our decision to localize in India provided us the opportunity to successfully compete on that project and is also keeping the bid pipeline in that country quite active.

“We continued to leverage our global fabrication supply chain where appropriate in order to compete effectively, and we stayed engaged throughout the nearly two year pipeline cycle with both buyers and end users to ensure we addressed their requirements.”

According to Graham Corporation, the project in India is a new, integrated refining and petrochemical complex for which it will deliver an ejector-liquid ring pump vacuum system.

The oil industry equipment supplier will also be supplying an ejector-liquid ring pump vacuum system for the upgrade and expansion of a clean fuels refinery project, besides replacing a 25-year-old steam surface condenser built by it for a refinery, that is undergoing revitalization and capacity expansion. Both the projects are located in Southeast Asia.
