Flowserve Corp has received two prestigious industry awards from global growth consulting company Frost and Sullivan honouring its market leadership in the pump sector.

The two awards cite Flowserve's excellence in providing superior value to its customers and its global penetration in the oil and gas industry.

For the first award, Frost and Sullivan honoured Flowserve as its 2006 North American Growth Excellence in Customer Value Leadership recipient in the pumps solutions market space.

This award recognised Flowserve for its superior customer-centric business solutions and market-leading customer satisfaction.

Frost and Sullivan noted that Flowserve has continued to expand its customer base by consistently addressing critical customer challenges and providing a one-stop shop for a complete range of dependable, reliable and cost-effective flow control products and solutions.

"Backed by sound technical expertise and a continuous focus on innovation, Flowserve has grown by delivering consistent customer value in a highly fragmented, competitive, and price-sensitive market space", said Dushyant Mehra, Research Analyst, Frost and Sullivan.

"Flowserve is undoubtedly the global leader in pumps, controls and associated system components that provide complete rotating equipment solutions for customers".

"Flowserve's strength lies in the broad product portfolio and application knowhow that strongly emphasise its leadership in the pumps market", added Mehra.

"The wide range of highly reliable products, combined with profitable solutions offered by Flowserve, caters uniquely to customer needs".

With the second award, Flowserve was honoured as the 2006 Frost and Sullivan Global Vertical Market Penetration Leadership Award recipient for its market-oriented and strategic approach to offering highly reliable and efficient pump systems to the oil and gas industry.

Flowserve was recognised for consistently meeting the demand of the industry's extreme environments and challenging applications.

In presenting the award, Frost and Sullivan noted that no other manufacturer offers the breadth of pumps for refining and petrochemical processing, as well as pipeline and production (offshore, onshore, synthetic crude, liquid natural gas) that Flowserve does.

"Flowserve has consistently managed to provide innovative solutions and highly engineered pumps that are the hallmark of reliability in demanding industrial applications", said Mehra.

"The company continues to remain at the forefront in winning customers by providing timely delivery of pumping solutions and services of the highest quality".

"These awards are truly a credit to all of the talented and hard-working Flowserve employees around the world", said Thomas E Ferguson, President, Flowserve Pumps.

"Innovation, teamwork, and an intense customer focus drive everything we do".

Eugene Levine, Vice President, Operational Excellence, Flowserve Pumps, accepted the two honours for the company at the Frost and Sullivan Growth Excellence Awards ceremony on 26th September 2006.
