eLynx and SCFM Services, Inc. Expand Monitoring Agreement

TULSA, Okla., Feb. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Tulsa-based companies, eLynx Technologies and SCFM Services, Inc., have teamed up to increase the operating efficiencies of SCFM's Rental Compressor Fleet. SCFM Services, Inc., a compressor leasing company, uses eLynx's CompressorDOC to track performance on its producer's sites.

"SCFM is managing by exception," said Mark Register, Managing Director of SCFM Services, Inc. "The eLynx device lets us know when and where a compressor has gone down immediately, instead of finding out hours later like we used to. This saves our customers hours of downtime, which translates into dollars for them."

SCFM began using eLynx's CompressorDOCs over a year ago and has continued to add a CompressorDOC as standard equipment on all lease compressors. Recently, per SCFM's request, eLynx was able to supply the company with a way to monitor their oil tanks. To date it has prevented unnecessary oil top offs and keeps costs inline. In addition to these eLynx services, SCFM is also able to provide their customers with monthly reports that detail compressor runtime to ensure SCFM guaranteed customer satisfaction.

"eLynx has given us a way to provide performance monitoring for our customers, which has made all the difference," said Register.

SCFM Services, Inc. was founded in Tulsa, Oklahoma in January 2002 by its parent company, SCFM Compression Systems Company. The company leases compressors to producers primarily in the mid-continent region, though they have plans to expand into other areas in the country.
