En contexte: comment cette installation se compare

Sous-secteur: oil-and-gas-production. Les champs pétroliers et gaziers et les installations d'extraction exploitent des compresseurs, équipements de séparation et unités de traitement chauffées; la perte de chaleur par la vapeur et les tuyauteries chaudes réduit l'efficacité d'extraction.
