A G Equipment Company

What A G Equipment Company does

A G Equipment Company is a privately held U.S. corporation founded in 1979 by Grady Ash and headquartered in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. The company designs, fabricates, and packages natural gas compressor packages (reciprocating and rotary screw) for gas gathering, transmission, production, process, storage, and instrument air applications, serving energy production, transportation, and waste industries globally. Its product portfolio extends beyond core compressor packaging into specialty turnkey skids (pipe racks, fuel conditioning skids, slug catchers, ESD skids, helium liquefiers, container and trailer packages, and power houses), a parts distribution business authorized by over 350 manufacturers, and a global field service operation with certified multi-lingual technicians.

The company operates from an 87-acre campus featuring a 600,000-square-foot indoor facility with 78 assembly bays, 14 climate-controlled paint booths, CNC structural beam coping machines, contour cutting torches, computerized vertical parts storage, and in-house 3D CAD design. Adherence to ASME Code and API Standards supports its fabrication and equipment certifications. A patented heat recovery system co-developed with TECO-Westinghouse Motor Company converts waste compression heat into electricity, with each megawatt reducing CO2 emissions by 8,672,400 pounds annually and qualifying for a 28% tax credit, opening applications in data centers and industrial facilities.

A G Equipment generates revenue through hardware sales of custom compressor packages and specialty skids, parts distribution across more than 350 OEM lines, and professional field services delivered via direct enterprise sales and quote-based multi-year contracts. The company employs more than 400 people globally, has remained founder-controlled and organically funded since inception, and maintains no disclosed institutional equity, debt, or acquisition activity.

Direct peers

• MAN Energy Solutions: MAN Energy Solutions packages large process gas and high-pressure compressors for oil & gas, LNG, and industrial applications. Comparable product scope (reciprocating and turbo compressor packages) with global field service.
• CIMC Enric: CIMC Enric is a major Chinese-based packager of natural gas compressor skids, LNG storage, and process equipment serving both domestic and international energy customers. Direct competitor in midstream and process gas packaging.
• Elliott Group: Elliott manufactures and packages process gas compressors (centrifugal and reciprocating) for oil & gas, petrochemical, and industrial gas applications. Direct overlap with A G Equipment's process gas and high-pressure packaging offerings.
• Ariel Corporation: Ariel is the leading U.S. manufacturer of reciprocating gas compressors—the same core component A G Equipment packages into skids. They are the most direct competitor for new natural gas compression projects and represent an alternative source for end customers evaluating packagers.
• Siemens Energy (Dresser-Rand): Siemens Energy's Dresser-Rand legacy business packages large reciprocating and centrifugal gas compressor skids for upstream, midstream, and process gas applications—directly comparable to A G Equipment's core offering, with broader global reach.

Others

• John Crane: John Crane supplies sealing, rotating equipment, and reliability solutions for compressors and rotating machinery in oil & gas. While not a direct packager competitor, it serves the same end-customers and is a comparable supplier into the same installed base A G Equipment services.

Broad incumbents

• Atlas Copco: Atlas Copco is a global compressor manufacturer with industrial gas, oil-free, and process gas compressor offerings. While more focused on smaller industrial compressors, it competes for many of the same end-customers and field service opportunities.
• Baker Hughes: Baker Hughes (formerly BHGE / GE Oil & Gas) supplies turbomachinery, process gas compressors, and integrated gas technology solutions for upstream, midstream, and LNG applications. Broad incumbent competing for large process gas compression projects.
• Caterpillar (Solar Turbines / CAT Gas Compression): Caterpillar, through Solar Turbines and its gas compression business, manufactures gas compressor packages and engines used across the natural gas value chain. A broad incumbent with significantly larger scale, distribution, and brand recognition than A G Equipment.
• Cummins (including Cummins Westport): Cummins produces natural gas engines and integrated compression packages through its Power Generation and Component segments, serving gas compression, gas gathering, and industrial markets. Comparable customer base with much broader product portfolio.
