The XATS 1200PACE compressor features operating pressures of 5-10 bar (72-150 psi) and flows between 34.6 and 31.5 m³/min, designed for high-capacity applications. Wilmar Processing SA, a customer of ATCO Pneumatics, has transitioned from the XAHS 400PACE to the XATS 1200PACE to meet increasing production demands.
This compressor supports a Pigging System essential for maintaining pipeline efficiency and product integrity. The compressor was installed by ATCO Pneumatics in January 2026 and is poised for operational use with incoming marine oil shipments.
The partnership allows for improved service and expertise in the oil and gas sector, showcasing the adaptability of Atlas Copco’s technology across different industries. Potential risks include reliance on a single supplier for critical equipment and the need for ongoing training to ensure operator proficiency.
