Brunnthal/Munich, Germany, Sept 12, 2017 - Simark Controls Ltd., a subsidiary of SFC Energy, leading provider of hybrid power solutions to the stationary and mobile power generation markets, has received major orders for their proprietary Variable Frequency Drive systems (VFDs) from a new customer in the Alberta oil sands. The orders amount to approx. CAD 1.25 million.

The VFD Systems operate electric submersible pumps (ESPs) used to artificially lift heavy oil from the well-pads. The VFD's unique installation and operations benefits significantly reduce installation and operating costs. Additional benefits are improved pump uptimes, optimized pump operation and augmented oil production.
