Virginia Transformer Corp’s engineering expertise and short production cycle times made us the supplier of choice when Halliburton / KBR under contract with the US Army Corp of Engineers needed transformers to support the “Restore Iraq Oil” project. 

In the early stages of the Iraq rebuilding campaign, KBR received a $7 billion dollar, two year  contract to restore their oil production.  Since the Iraqi power grid was in shambles, Halliburton / KBR decided to install on site gas fired generators and transformers to re-power the water injection pumps which drive oil up out of the ground.  The fast pace of the project dictated that they align themselves with responsive and highly capable vendors. 

VTC provided the engineering, manufacturing, and delivery of 11 @ 15/20/25 MVA, 11 kV to 6.6/3.3 kV, 50 Hz step down transformers to the Qarmat Ali water injection facility.  From receipt of  the order to air shipment from Washington Dulles VTC took only seven weeks to execute the entire order – unheard of in an industry where cycle times are measured in months.
