Guidant

What Guidant does

Guidant is a precision measurement solutions company serving the global energy sector across upstream, midstream, and downstream applications. The company designs, manufactures, and services flow measurement hardware (turbine meters, positive displacement meters, and ultrasonic meters for both gas and liquids), flow computers, and supervisory metering control systems, with a particular focus on custody transfer applications where measurement accuracy is commercially and regulatorily critical. Its portfolio is anchored by the Smith Meter sub-brand and complemented by INVALCO, Sening, Satam, and FuelFACS, combining 80+ years of measurement heritage with the agility of a standalone company under One Equity Partners ownership since the March 2024 carve-out from TechnipFMC.

The company monetizes through three primary revenue streams: (1) measurement equipment sales across turbine, PD, and ultrasonic meter categories, (2) automation and control system sales including flow computers, supervisory control software, and terminal management platforms, and (3) services and support covering engineering, installation, commissioning, field service, maintenance contracts, and the Revolve remanufactured-equipment buy-back program. Its GTM combines direct enterprise field sales through local service centers (Houston HQ, Erie PA manufacturing, Lenexa KS software, Odessa TX, plus Chippenham UK, Ellerbek Germany, and Kongsberg Norway) with a formal global Channel Partner Program. Manufacturing occurs in the US, Germany, Norway, and France following the December 2025 Satam acquisition.

Guidant's customer base spans energy operators handling transportation, distribution, and storage of petroleum liquids and natural gas by truck, rail, vessel, aviation, and pipeline, with emerging exposure to hydrogen, biofuels, LNG, and offshore applications. The FuelFACS terminal management software is deployed across 400+ terminals globally, the Ultra Series ultrasonic meter fleet exceeds 300,000 units in service, and the Sening tank truck hardware base exceeds 14,000 units, underscoring the scale of the installed base and the recurring revenue opportunity from aftermarket services and software upgrades.
