In 2010 the Elliott Group is proudly celebrating its 100 year heritage. The words in our centennial logo – Past, Present, Future – frame a century of engineering excellence and innovation, and guide us forward as we continue to build on that legacy. Elliott rotating equipment operates today in critical applications at the heart of the global economy, including oil & gas production and processing, refining, chemical processing, power generation and many others. Throughout the world, customers in these industries rely upon Elliott for precision engineering, extraordinary reliability and unparalleled service. As we begin our second century, we are committed to continuing to earn their trust.
It is a significant accomplishment to reach the century mark. Our founder, William Swan Elliott, was an innovative engineer and a visionary businessman. He saw in new and developing technologies the opportunity to supply customers with the carefully engineered, highly reliable equipment they needed to grow their businesses. The same forward-looking spirit that was the genesis of Elliott Company a century ago lives on. As an important component of Ebara Corporation, the Elliott Group today remains focused on delighting our customers with the very best turbomachinery and service available anywhere in the world.
Over the last 100 years, Elliott has achieved many firsts in power generation, power recovery, and compression technology. This legacy of achievement will continue to grow as we look back with pride and forward with enthusiastic anticipation. Change is essential for achieving and maintaining a competitive edge, and together with our customers and suppliers, we will continue to improve and expand our portfolio of products and services.
As we address the challenges of a second 100 years, Elliott’s core values of quality, reliability and service will continue to guide us. Thank you to each Elliott employee around the world for your dedication and commitment to our continued success. Thank you, too, to our customers for your continued trust in Elliott.
