Furthermore, a B2B meeting between the two companies' executives was held at the KSBC: D. Ashimov, Chief Executive Officer of KPI Inc., represented Burckhardt Compression AG, and the General Director of Fabrice Billard represented KPI Inc. The negotiations allowed the parties to discuss promising areas of cooperation, exchange strategic ideas, and confirm their mutual interest in a long-term partnership.
The signing of the memorandum complements the existing long-term collaboration between the companies and sets new benchmarks for future development. KPI's Integrated Petrochemical Complex (hereinafter referred to as the Complex) houses vital equipment—two piston compressors—for which Burckhardt Compression AG manufactures spare parts and provides maintenance services.
