Enhancing Natural Gas Production: Upwing Drills into Additive Manufacturing

Realizing Your Innovation Without Compromise

Upwing Energy’s Hybrid Compressor Rotor

Upwing Energy pioneers affordable, eco-friendly energy solutions with the Artificial Lift Subsurface Compressor SystemTM (SCS), revolutionizing natural gas production. By challenging conventional lift methods, the SCS boosts production up to 200% while cutting emissions.

One challenge was manufacturing core components within an eight-week timeline. Multiple methods were evaluated, with metal additive manufacturing (AM) emerging as the superior choice, meeting ASTM F3055 standards. Rigorous testing validated Velo3D’s metal AM solution, showcasing exceptional durability and resilience, setting a new standard.
