Ruston Gas Turbines
IMS (Integrated Maintenance Services Ltd) is The Leading Alternative Support for Ruston Gas Turbines, established in 1998 to provide industrial gas turbine maintenance services to the oil and gas industry in the North Sea.
IMS predominantly services and overhauls heavy duty and light frame Ruston gas turbines produced by Alstom, which has been a subsidiary company of Siemens since 2003. Alstom is a global leader in the world of power generation and IMS has been helping them to power the oil and gas industry for many years. This relationship has thrived over the years with IMS’s establishment of an in-house service and gas turbine overhaul capability for Ruston TA, TB (3000, 4000, 5000 & 5400), TD, Tornado & Typhoon gas turbines.
