New Orleans, LA (Aug. 27, 2024) – This week, Petrotech conducted a customer Factory Acceptance Test for one of two retrofit Control systems. This test includes replacing their Generator controls for their GE LM2500 Aeroderivative Gas Turbine Generators. The FAT utilized simulators that replicate our customers Gas Turbines & plant operation at their power Generation plants in Arkansas. These two Control Systems that Petrotech designed, engineered and manufactured will be installed and commissioned by Petrotech field Engineers in October 2024. This latest project was awarded to Petrotech due to the customer’s satisfaction with executing and commissioning the first project. This first to replace their obsolete GE LM6000 Gas Turbine Generator control systems.

The GE LM6000 retrofit Control systems have now been operating successfully, four years after the Factory Acceptance Test. It remains functional at this same Power Plant, and our current GE LM2500 Retrofit control system project will be due for installation later this year.

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN KAZOUR, CEO

Welcome to Innova Technologies

To our customers and partners,

For more than 50 years, our team has helped customers keep critical operations running. We built our reputation as Petrotech by taking responsibility for control systems on important rotating machinery.

As more industries came to us with similar challenges across power generation, compression, and hydro applications, our engineering team kept finding ways to solve them. Eventually, the business outgrew the Petrotech name.

We are entering our next chapter as Innova Technologies. The new name reflects the full scope of our work as a rotating machinery control systems specialist. We engineer controls around the machine, deliver complete projects from design through commissioning, and provide support that stays with the problem until it is solved.

Our name is changing, but the people, engineering experience, and commitment behind the work continue. Our responsibility to active projects and installed systems carries forward under the Innova Technologies name. Your current contacts remain the right place to start, and we will communicate directly if an administrative record requires an update.

We appreciate the trust you have placed in us over the decades, and we look forward to continuing that work as Innova Technologies.

John Kazour

CEO, Innova Technologies
