Tamrotor Marine Compressors - Compressed Air Systems for Marine and Offshore Applications

Tamrotor Marine Compressors (TMC) is the world's leading supplier of compressed air systems for marine and offshore use. The product range consists of screw compressors, air dryers and filters for any demand of compressed air, even oil-free air. TMC has a worldwide service, spare part and sales network.

TMC provides compressed air packages for control air, service air and rig air for drill ships, jackup rigs, semi-submersibles and FPSOs. We also supply systems for control air and bulk-handling air for supply ships and oil rigs.

Our scope of supply includes screw compressors, air dryers, air receivers and filter packages for all compressed air requirements for offshore applications. Our equipment is designed especially for marine and offshore use, provides large capacities on small footprint, meets all class requirements, and is delivered with full offshore documentation.

Marine screw compressors

TMC is the only provider of marine screw compressors that is solely dedicated to providing compressed air for marine use. Since its establishment in 1989, TMC's only focus has been the design and construction of compressed air equipment that satisfies the extreme marine requirements.

Over the last three years, TMC has signed more than 1,600 orders for complete compressed air systems ranging from 50m³/hr to 10,000m³/hr.

Energy-saving air compressors

Energy costs make up to 80% of the compressed air cost. Using a TMC Smart Air energy-saving compressor you can save 40% energy or more. This significantly reduces the lifecycle cost of the compressor and reduces harmful emissions.

Compared to a conventional compressor providing the same amount of compressed air, the energy consumption of a TMC SA 60 will be reduced by 161,000kW/hr during one year. With an estimated energy cost of $0.20, this means an annual saving of $32,200 and a reduction in CO₂ emissions of 103,040kg - for one compressor.

Spare parts for marine screw compressors

Using components and spare parts approved for marine use is crucial to your safety. Considering the high temperatures, high pressure, and extreme conditions at work in a compressor on-board a ship or offshore vessel, every detail counts. That is why TMC pays attention to every little detail on the parts. Factors such as glue types, coatings, filter walls and types of metals, etc. may seem insignificant, but are crucial for reliable and safe operation.

The distinctive TMC packaging gives you the assurance that you have received top-quality original parts based on our specifications and our unrivalled experience in marine screw compressors.

Spare part kits for air compressors

To make ordering and use of spare parts more efficient and cost effective, TMC has introduced spare part kits. The spare part kits contain all parts that should be replaced during a given service operation. A service CD containing live video instructions helps the personnel on-board safely perform the routine maintenance operations.

Benefits of using the kits include: lower price per part than when purchased item by item, time saved on ordering and checking, and certainty of getting all necessary parts - and no unnecessary parts. This means there will be no unscheduled stops due to missing parts. Packaging with distinct TMC profile ensures that the parts received can be recognised as high-quality, original TMC spare parts.

TMC spare part kits include kits such as 1,500hr / one-year kit, oil change kit, separator kit, etc. Kits are available for all TMC compressor models.

Global service and sales network for compressed air systems

Original TMC parts are available from Oslo, Rotterdam and Singapore. TMC agents and service centres throughout the world are ready to help you at any time. We keep all wearing parts for TMC compressors in stock, and provide fast, efficient delivery worldwide.

Air dryers and filters

TMC's refrigerated dryers deliver a guaranteed dew point of +3°C. The two base functions of the dryer - air cooling and refrigerant cooling - enable cost-effective treatment of the compressed air on a constant basis.

TMC's membrane dryers consist of non-moving parts and no electrical connections, giving a dew point down to -40°C and minimal maintenance costs.

The TMC adsorption dryers produce consistent dew points of -40°C and -73°C for the outlet pressure, with minimum air usage and maximum service life.

TMC provides filters for any compressed air quality needed: oil-free air, instrument air, breathing air, working air and sterile air. Our air filters provide the exact degree of filtration needed for your application. The housing with modular connections eliminates the need for interconnecting piping. The bayonet-style housing and push-on elements make service easy.
