PSG, Perkins strengthen ties

Power Systems Gulf, a member of The Kanoo Group, along with Perkins UK, participated in the 2015 Middle East Electricity Exhibition which was held at the Dubai World Trade Centre on 2nd – 4th March, 2015 to showcase the broad Perkins product range from the 400 to the 4000 series and to promote the strong product support network in the region.

The Middle East Electricity is the largest and longest running power event in the region which brings together leaders from the power, lighting, nuclear or renewable energy sectors to exhibit their products and services.  The recent 40th Edition gathered more than 1,300 exhibitors in an area of approximately 54,000sqm, with around 20,000 visitors showing interest in the power generation segment.

This year, the Perkins exhibition stand was massive, well-designed and futuristic, which was located right in front of the Hall 1 entrance. The new Perkins product displayed was the 1506A engine manufactured in US, which is built on a reliable core to deliver improved performance and improved ambient capability upto 53 deg C, in the range of 200 – 330kVA. Power Systems Gulf provided a 4006 diesel engine from stock for display, which comes from an engine family offering proven quality, class leading warranty and reliability in key locations around the globe.

Perkins also held a customer event outside the Exhibition on the evening of the 2nd day, to engage and thank its partners, OEMs and customers, which was attended by more than 100 delegates.

Power Systems Gulf partnership with OEMs was strengthened during this Exhibition, with several tripartite discussions held, to sort out issues and to further enhance business cooperation. Very few customer complaints were received at the stand, which conveyed the message to Perkins that the business model they have put in place for this region is working quite well.


During the Exhibition, an order for 100 engines was finalized with an OEM with the support from Perkins on delivery, which would be going into a project for Saudi Ministry.
