Caterpillar dealer Cleveland Brothers Equipment Co. recently celebrated its 100th gas compression engine rebuild at its new Engine Rebuild Center (ERC) in Ebensburg, Pennsylvania.
The 100th engine, a Cat G3516B, is owned by Repsol, a global multi-energy company. Repsol has a goal of achieving zero net emissions by 2050. This is the seventeenth gas compression engine Repsol has had rebuilt by Cleveland Brothers at the facility.
