“We have a strong preference for Hobré as system integrator because of their long experience in building sampling systems as well as their experience with a very broad range of different analysers”.
It is our goal to provide an innovative analyzing solution tailored to the specific requirements of our customer. We deliver analyzing solutions that provide more reliable information for our customers, to create an optimum process efficiency and reduced OPEX. Our experience has shown us that our approach consistently results in a quicker return on investment and a lower cost of ownership.
We provide customized analyzing solutions for the following industries:
- Oil & Gas; upstream, midstream, downstream.
- Dairy industry; complete solutions for spray-drying installations.
- Metal, mining and recycling industry
- Energy; combustion control meganisms
- Alternative energy: electricity to gas conversion/streams
- Renewables
- Steel and glass industry

LNG analysis and sampling solutions
For LNG custody transfer it is now common practice to determine the composition and gross calorific value of delivered LNG by direct online analysis plus indirect lab analysis methods. The handling of the LNG before analyzing can have significant effect on the representivity of the sample. A sample which is not representative results in incorrect measurement which can have a significant financial impact. Hobré Instruments successfully supplied systems for these extreme conditions. This project scope was realized by:
- Take-off probe and vaporizer
- Automatic and spot sampling system
- Wobbe index analyzer
- Process gas chromatograph
- Sample conditioning system
