Hey Blue
We had a turbine sta. that had two large GE units (Auburn, Al.) which they said were not very efficient but they could move some gas. One unit could pump into the other, both were centrifugal compressors. This sta was built in the late 1960s.
In 2002 company started a lot of compressor sta additions. Most were electric recep. The contractor that came to our location said it was odd that he was installing an electric unit because the last few jobs he did was pulling out electric and installing turbines. Ours was a 7000 hp electric. Auburn sta got a 18000 hp so did others on the system.
It all comes down to epa standards. We had 5 engines that were installed in 1953, Clark hba-5t that were not required to meet epa standards.
With compressor sta automation so common now how easy to start an engine is an important consideration also. Try to get five 1953 anything's to crank and shut down flawlessly day after day can be a challenge.
