At its core, a skid is a robust, flat structure typically constructed from steel beams or channels. It serves as a stable base for mounting heavy equipment, such as compressors, pumps, generators, and process modules. Skids are designed to withstand substantial loads and provide a secure foundation for the equipment they support.

One of the primary advantages of skids is their versatility. They can be customized to accommodate a wide range of equipment sizes, shapes, and configurations. Whether it’s a compact assembly for a small-scale operation or a complex arrangement for a large industrial facility, skids can be tailored to meet specific requirements.

Moreover, skids can incorporate various features and components to enhance functionality, such as lifting lugs, forklift pockets, integrated piping and instrumentation, and control systems. This adaptability makes skids invaluable across diverse industries, including oil and gas, petrochemical, power generation, and manufacturing.
