Sulzer enhances local support for rotating equipment with new service center in Rayong, Thailand

The Rayong Service Center will increase Sulzer’s repair capacity in the area by 80%. It provides customers access to advanced engineering and maintenance capabilities, allowing it to deliver world leading retrofit, reverse engineering, and service projects for rotating equipment including industrial steam turbine units up to 10MW. 

Li Jian, President, APAC at Sulzer, said: “Our new facility in Rayong is a direct response to the local market’s need for specialized, rapid support. By establishing operations close to our customers, we will ensure that we boost the speed of delivery for tailored solutions that address the unique needs and challenges of our local customers, enhancing the reliability and performance of their operations.”

As part of Sulzer’s plan to meet the needs of local industry, the service center offers streamlined retrofitting capabilities. This allows it to cut typical lead times for critical pump models used in oil and gas production and power generation by 50%. 

The Rayong facility will also act as a hub for technology and knowledge transfer from Sulzer’s premier turbomachinery service point in Indonesia. This initiative will elevate the local capabilities in industrial steam turbine services, solidifying Sulzer’s commitment to building regional industrial resilience.

Sulzer’s investment in Rayong marks a strategic expansion in the APAC region, setting the stage for further growth across the area over the coming years.
