Abstract: Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporations Compressor Station No, 62 is located near Houma, Louisiana and is the automated facility described in this paper. The 25,000 h.p. station consists of three each Cooper GMVC- 8, one each Ingersoll-Rand 410-KVT, two each Ingersoll-Rand 512-KVT, one each Worthington MLV, and two each Ingersoll- Rand 41ft-KVR compressor units. The station is in service on Transcos Southeast Louisiana Lateral pipeline and provides the first Transco compression of natural gas from offshore Louisiana toward Transcos mainline pipeline traversing Southern Louisiana. The station was initially put into service in 1962 with three compressor units, and was manned eight hours a day. Provisions were made at this time to remotely start and stop the units from the companys main line station No. 65 approximately 100 miles to the north - this being the closest company facility
