November 19, 2009 (FinancialWire) — Capstone Turbine Corp. (NASDAQ: CPST), the world’s leading clean technology manufacturer of microturbine energy systems, has named Delcom Services Sdn. Bhd. its distributor in Malaysia for the oil and gas industry.

Delcom Services recently secured its first Capstone order for a Malaysia state oil company, one of the world’s largest oil companies, for two C200 turbines packaged for an oil and gas hazardous environment.

Established in 1982, Delcom Services provides a variety of products and services to oil and gas companies in Malaysia.

Delcom will market and install Capstone microturbines to onshore and offshore oil and gas firms in Malaysia. Delcom also will provide maintenance for the existing Capstone fleet.

“Delcom Services is one of the leading oil and gas service companies in Malaysia,” said Jim Crouse, Capstone Turbine’s executive vice president of Sales and Marketing. “Malaysia is also one of the world’s leading exporters of liquefied natural gas. Delcom’s decades of work with various oil companies in Malaysia should further strengthen Capstone’s market share in the country.”

The worldwide oil and gas market is a major focus for Capstone. Last year, Capstone added to its existing Malaysian fleet with the sale of nine C65 microturbines for installation on unmanned oil platforms.

Capstone’s offerings for the oil and gas industry include an integrated microturbine package to meet the special requirements of offshore applications. The package uses corrosion protection with a 316 stainless steel enclosure and optional Class I Division 2 or ATEX Zone 2 design features for use in hazardous areas.

The Capstone oil and gas package also has an energy storage system to start the microturbine and provide momentary power during abrupt load changes. The result is highly regulated voltage and frequency regardless of load changes. These compact, self-sufficient systems include remote dispatch, diagnostic and monitoring capabilities ideal for unmanned platforms and remote oil and gas production sites.
