Company Information

The history of BSI Industries, Inc. begins in 1959.  It was at this time that the company’s founders began to build compressor stations and gas metering units in the eastern part of the United States.  From that time, the company expanded, receiving more orders for work from American natural gas production and processing companies like Consolidated Natural Gas, Columbia Gas, National Fuel and other firms located in the eastern U.S.  In this era BSI Industries, Inc. designed and built more than 200 facilities in the U.S.

BSI Industries, Inc. entered the international market in 1990 and since that time has completed more than 20 projects in the CIS and Eastern Europe.  In 1992 we began to work in Ukraine, Russia, Estonia and Poland.  From 1996, BSI made its way into Central Asia (Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan) and in the region of the Caucuses.  A significant part of these projects included design, procurement of equipment, site supervision, field assistance, and facility operations assistance.  In our Project page, you will find more detailed information about BSI’s projects.

In 1996 BSI completed the reconstruction of the Shebelinka Gas Processing Facility in Ukraine.  This work included the installation of new catalytic reforming units and a system for hydro-cleaning raw materials.

From 1997 – 1999, the Khodzhaabad Underground Gas Storage (UGS) was designed, built and put into operation in Uzbekistan.  This UGS is currently the largest in operation in Central Asia. In 2000, BSI completed a feasibility study for a gas pipeline to run to the city of Astana, the new capital of Kazakhstan.  At the same time, a gas metering unit was designed for the Republic of Georgia.

From 2000 – 2001, the Lokachi Sulfur Recovery and Gas Treatment Unit was built in the Volyn Region of Ukraine. In 2001-2002, BSI designed an electric power generation unit that was put into operation at the Lokachi Facility.

In 2002, BSI received rights to participate in a major project in the Republic of Kazakhstan – the development of the Amangeldy Deposit.
