Read Time: 2 mins

Cimarron, Inc., a global leader in emissions management and vapour recovery technology, and Bell Supply Company, LLC, a premier distributor of pipe, valves, fittings and MRO solutions to the energy sector, have announced a strategic partnership that significantly expands access to high-performance Vapour Recovery Units (VRUs) for operators across West Texas, New Mexico, South Texas and Oklahoma.

Under the agreement, Bell Supply will exclusively own, rent and manage a rapidly expanding fleet of next-generation VRUs designed and manufactured by Cimarron’s HY-BON division. Cimarron will continue to provide field service and maintenance, alongside its industry-leading remote monitoring platform, which incorporates advanced real-time data analytics, machine learning and predictive failure capabilities.

The partnership brings together Bell Supply’s extensive commercial reach, logistics infrastructure and established customer relationships with Cimarron’s deep engineering expertise and VRU performance records exceeding 98 percent mechanical availability. The result is a scalable offering that delivers both technical excellence and commercial simplicity for operators.

As part of the collaboration, operators will benefit from immediate access to an expanded rental fleet of purpose-built VRUs engineered for both low- and high-discharge-pressure applications commonly found in the Delaware and Midland Basins. Customers will also retain seamless continuity with Cimarron’s trained service technicians and 24/7 remote monitoring, supported by advanced predictive analytics designed to identify mechanical issues before they occur, thereby reducing downtime and unplanned emissions. Additional benefits include simplified contracting through existing MSAs already in place with Bell Supply and a single-source solution that combines premium equipment, proven field service and flexible commercial terms.

Jeff Foster, chief executive officer of Cimarron, said the partnership would significantly accelerate the deployment of reliable and technologically advanced rental VRUs. He noted that the collaboration enables Cimarron to focus on engineering innovation and service delivery, while Bell Supply provides rapid deployment and commercial flexibility for customers.

Bruno Cheron, chief executive officer of Bell Supply, said the addition of Cimarron-built VRUs represents a major enhancement to Bell Supply’s emissions-control rental portfolio. He added that customers will benefit from single-source access to premium equipment supported by Cimarron’s established service standards, delivered through Bell Supply’s flexible rental structures and existing billing relationships.

New VRUs currently in production at Cimarron’s manufacturing facilities feature enhanced discharge-pressure capabilities and integrated machine-learning algorithms capable of predicting component failures weeks in advance. The initial units are scheduled to be available for rental through Bell Supply from December 2025, with continued fleet expansion planned throughout 2026.
