<strong>Leeden</strong> <strong>Limited</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong> <strong>2010</strong>Gas Products & ServicesThe NIG Group manufactures and supplies a full range ofgases including industrial gases, specialty gases, divinggases, medical gases and cryogenic liquids with stringenthigh purity specifications to match any application.Customized Engineering & Consultancy ServicesOur engineering and consultancy projects have alsoachieved recognition in the industry. From the installationof customized systems for the Nitrogen Mobile ChargingTrolley for compartments of airplanes, to the provision ofCylinder Rack Control Systems for purging activities onboardvessels where the control system was specially designed toallow a flow rate of up to 2,000m 3 /hr.Industrial GasesMedical Gases– Acetylene, Argon, Carbon Dioxide, Helium,Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Propane– Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen, OxygenSpecialty Gases – Calibration Gases, Ultra-Pure Gases,Component Mixture GasesOther Gases – Refrigerants, Balloon Gases, Diving Gases,LPG, Dry IceCryogenic Liquids – Carbon Dioxide, Argon, Oxygen, NitrogenOur gas manufacturing centres are equipped with in-houselaboratories, online gas analyzers and quality controlsystems to ensure quality and consistency for every batchof gas produced. We have the capability to issue Certificateof Conformity and Certificate of Analysis as requested byour customers, asour online gasanalyzers allow usto analyze the fullspecifications andcomposition of ourgases.Gas-Related Products & ServicesBesides the provision of the most comprehensive rangeof gas products, the Group also offers gas relatedproducts including GasEquipment & Gas ControlApparatus Systems, aswell as engineering andconsultancy services.New Technology For Increased ProductivityIn November <strong>2010</strong>, the Groupinvested in a gravimetricrefilling facility in Singapore.This facility enables us toachieve higher accuracy andproductivity for our refilling ofmixture gases.The system comprises of 3 main parts, namely theweighing scales, mixing panel and refilling stand. A higherlevel of accuracy can be achieved as the process is lessaffected by temperature variations. Eventually translatinginto less re-works and reduced gas wastages arising fromgas quality reject. This procedure enables the Singaporeteam to produce a variety of mixture gas requirements withdiversified product range while at the same time achievinga higher quality of gas mixture..13
