Announcing Petrotech Inc at Clean Currents Oct. 14-17! We’re thrilled to share that Jackson Post, Project Engineer at #Petrotech, will be presenting at Clean Currents 2025 on October 15 at 11 am in the Waterpower Intelligence Theater as part of the "Improvements and Innovations" session. Jackson will co-present alongside Canyon Hydro and Sage Geosystems on the pioneering “Innovative Pumped Storage” project. This session introduces an advanced subsurface long-duration energy storage solution called Earth Storage, which transforms deep, low-permeability rock into a rechargeable pressure vessel. Key highlights of the presentation include: 🔺 EARTH STORAGE: Injects water into a fractured reservoir until wellhead pressure reaches ~4,000 psi, storing energy in “lung” fractures, and later using that pressure to drive a Pelton turbine for electricity generation . 🔺 ADAPTIVE CONTROLS: This innovative approach fills the critical gap left by traditional lithium-ion batteries and pumped hydro—especially in markets that demand scalability, reliability, and real-time control. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how cutting-edge storage and control technologies are reshaping the hydropower landscape. 🔺 If you're attending, join the session and visit with the Petrotech team at Booth 1117. 📢 Enter to win a rugged #TURTLEBOX RANGER SPEAKER at our Booth! Message anyone on our team or comment below to set-up a time to chat with us. Craig Springford John Kazour John Claybrook Jackson Post

Aeroderivative vs. Frame Gas Turbines: What’s the Difference? Selecting the right turbine impacts efficiency, reliability, and long-term performance. 🔺 Aeroderivative turbines are lightweight, modular, and built for flexibility—offering rapid start-up, high efficiency, and easier maintenance. 🔺 Frame turbines are heavy-duty workhorses—designed for durability, continuous duty, and stable power output in large-scale applications. Both play critical roles, but understanding their functionality and control differences is key to making the right choice. Which turbine is the better fit for your operation—an aeroderivative built for speed and flexibility, or a frame turbine built for durability and steady power?

Turbine efficiency isn’t optional — it’s a competitive advantage. Unplanned downtime. Rising fuel costs. Stricter emissions targets. Industrial operators are under pressure to deliver more with less. That’s why improving turbine efficiency is no longer a nice-to-have—it’s essential. At Petrotech, we specialize in control system solutions that optimize turbine performance without costly equipment overhauls. In this article, we break down 5 proven strategies for increasing turbine efficiency across gas, steam, and hydro applications: ➡️ Upgrade control systems to modern, responsive architectures ➡️ Implement real-time monitoring to catch issues before they cause failures ➡️ Use predictive analytics for maintenance and lifecycle planning ➡️ Optimize fuel combustion and temperature controls ➡️ Enhance integration across DCS, PLC, and SCADA environments With smarter control logic and better data insights, your rotating equipment can run longer, burn cleaner, and operate more efficiently—especially under seasonal stress like summer heat. 🔗 Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/g2kYmdcR Want to talk about how to improve efficiency at your facility?
