The Cornerstones of Compression series has highlighted many significant products over more than 160 years of continuous progress. This is the final of a three-issue series that traces the emergence of large horizontal gas engine-compressors at the turn of the 20th century and the emergence of the C & G Cooper Company and later, Cooper-Bessemer, as the primary manufacturer of these huge machines for four decades.

We at ADI predicted an LNG and natural gas “Super Cycle,” showing unprecedented growth earlier this year. But global gas markets didn’t get the memo, with 2025 growth trailing the prior year. That pause is now over. A massive new wave of LNG supply is poised to crash the market in 2026, creating a major inflection point for global gas market. This liquefaction surge will ignite global gas demand, especially in Asia’s price-sensitive regions. It’s excellent news for everyone in the natural gas and LNG value chains, from industrial players to turbomachinery OEMs.
