Acoustical, piping, skid, and field vibration engineering for reciprocating compressors and pump systems. API 618 compliant — every time, every option.
Tech Transfer was established in Houston over 35 years ago specifically to address the vibration and reliability failures caused by high-speed reciprocating gas compressors — before boutique specialist firms for this work even existed.
We pioneered heavier-duty skid and foundation designs that became industry standard. Our team draws from compressor OEMs, packagers, EPCs, and operators — which means we've seen your problem from every angle before we touch your analysis.
Every TTI engagement is run by senior engineers who have done this work for decades.
Each service stands alone or combines into a full project solution — from initial acoustical design through on-site field troubleshooting.
API 618 pulsation simulation, bottle sizing, and dynamic force output for compressor and pump systems at all three design approach levels.
Thermal flexibility, sustained load, and vibration fatigue analysis for on-skid and facility piping. Static and dynamic support design included.
Static and dynamic FEA for compressor package skids of all sizes — wind, seismic, and lift load cases analyzed to AISC and API RP2A.
API 618 5th edition modal analysis to confirm mechanical resonance avoidance across the full compressor operating speed range.
On-site pulsation and vibration measurement, root cause analysis, and corrective recommendations via TTI Field Engineering, Inc.
Foundation design for all horsepower levels — piling or drilled pier systems, soil-structure interaction, and dynamic load analysis.
From initial acoustical design to on-site field verification — every service is delivered by the same senior engineers who answer your first call.
From 500 to 8,200 BHP, onshore gathering to offshore FPSO gas lift — we have analyzed compressor packages at every scale and operating condition.
140+ years of combined staff experience. Your analysis is always run and reviewed by engineers who have solved your exact problem dozens of times before.
Through TTI Field Engineering, Inc., we design the solution and then go verify it on-site — closing the loop between analytical prediction and real-world performance.
Our principal engineers sit on the API 618 task force and the API 11P 3rd Edition committee. We don't just follow the standards — we help write them.
