On November 16 and 17, 2023, members from both Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Compressor Corporation (MCO) and MHI Compressor Korea, Ltd. (MCO-K) participated in the 22nd Korea Rotating Machinery Symposium in Seoul, South Korea, which is hosted by the Korea Rotating Machinery Engineers Association, an association of petrochemical plant owners. At the event, I presented our latest technology aimed at improving compressor maintainability and reducing labor for compressor operators. The talk drew lots of attention and I was asked by an important customer to present at another event and received other positive feedback as well. In South Korea, there are 47 plants and 165 machines from MCO currently in operation, and we will continue to actively offer solutions to our customers’ needs.
