About our Founder

Tom Russell began his career after graduating from the University of Tulsa in 1957.  His first company, T.H. Russell Co., was based in Tulsa.

Tom's concept of pre-engineered modular designs opens many opportunities in gas liquid recovery plant design.  Our UOP Russell plants have many benefits:

  • The plant can be nearly 100% fabricated before its destination is identified
  • Building the same plant several times reduces costs, improves delivery, and provides more certainty of operating dependability
  • Changed inlet conditions at the first location, or after moving the plant to a new location does not pose a problem

The ultimate value of a UOP Russell plant depends on the degree of flexibility designed into the plant.  Our pre-engineered cryogenic plants went through a 2 to 3 year development improvement process as we found and eliminated bottlenecks presented by new inlet conditions.  Learn more about this in our updated technical paper.  Please also see our FAQs for more information.

The Future

We have made sure that our company is strategically positioned to accommodate the demanding growth in the gas processing industry.  Through our staff, our facilities, our technology and continued partnership with our clients, excellence will drive us and we will keep providing the quality services our clients need to help them achieve their business, production and bottom line goals.
