Our Legacy

UECompression has provided high-specification, custom equipment, and solutions since the 1980s. While our name has changed a few times along the way—PAMCO, Colorado Compressor, Gas Packagers, Inc., and Iron Horse Compressor—our unwavering commitment to our customers and delivery of the highest-quality products and services remains the same. Today, UECompression (“UEC”) is the foremost engineered-to-order equipment packager for power generation, biogas, renewable natural gas, hydrogen, oil & gas, and industrial and process applications in the U.S.

Strategically located in the Rocky Mountain West, our Oil & Gas customers stretch throughout the continental US and our Process and Power customers have a global footprint. 

As of April 2023, UEC is a member of the EnergyLink International group. EnergyLink International is a leading supplier of specialized and balanced solutions for air emissions and noise management and acoustic consulting. Learn more about EnergyLink International.
