TURNKEY SOLUTIONS FOR MAXIMUM UPTIME: At Nidec Power, we are dedicated to ensuring continuous operations for our customers. Recently, our team supported a leading Exploration and Production company's Deepwater facilities in the Gulf of Mexico through seamless repair services. During an initial on-site generator inspection, our experts identified low insulation readings and discovered insulation breakdown due to age, rust, and contamination. Our highly trained technicians swiftly collaborated with the customer to devise a plan, starting with removing the unit from service and installing a critical spare. The original unit was then transported to our Houma, Louisiana facility for a complete overhaul. Once restored to "like-new" condition, it was placed in the customer's climate-controlled storage as a critical spare, ready to be maintained by Nidec Power technicians for future use. We take pride in supporting our clients with top-tier remanufacturing and maintenance services! #NidecPower #Houma #Remanufacturing #MissionCritical

From all of us at Nidec Power, have a happy and safe Fourth-of-July celebration. #IndependenceDay #July4th #Holiday
