CAM continues it's efficiency campaign. A good move as I see it and I like their continued focus on NA operations.

With respect to the Y2K report recently posted, if the NAVY gets into trouble they can always call the Coast Guard to bail them out <vbg>. wink wink, nudge nudge.....

marc, good morning,

I'm no pipeline hand, but I think a rotating-type compressor is either a Roots-type blower, with two meshing gear-like screws which compress the gas - like a supercharger - or alternatively, a turbine-type compressor.

These can be high pressure / high volume.

The reciprocating type is basically like your truck engine, with pistons performing the compression via a postive displacement cycle.

Regards to all,

Aggie
