SERVICE, REFINED
WestAir proudly supports California’s oil & gas refining industry with high-purity gases and exceptional service. We offer modern oil and gas refining operations a wide-range of package types for gases like Acetylene, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen, Oxygen, and Hydrogen – let us help you create the safest environments for greater extraction and refining.
We are proud to offer standard next day delivery, same-day delivery, and available 24/7 monitoring.
From the first walkthrough to delivery and beyond, our team is always ready to serve.
Our gas experts walk through your setup to build systems that prioritize safety and efficiency.
No matter the volume or type of gas, our state-of-the-art labs and highly-skilled production teams deliver.
Our drivers consistently perform in high-pressure environments and champion things such as customer care, road, and onsite safety.
Stop paying rent on cylinders that aren’t in your possession. And enjoy sustainable service with less deliveries thanks to telemetry’s mobile alerts, real-time measurements, and usage trends.
The days of chasing invoices and updating billing info are gone — access your account and re-order with confidence (and ease).
With WestAir cylinder tracking only pay for the cylinders that you are using. Never overpay for storing empty unused cylinders ever again.
Learn more about the different gases commonly used in the petroleum refining and related industries.
Used extensively in hydrocracking, hydrotreating, and desulfurization processes to convert heavy hydrocarbons into lighter, more valuable products and to remove sulfur from fuels.
Employed in various oxidation processes, including sulfur recovery units (Claus process) and in the production of synthesis gas (syngas) from natural gas or heavy hydrocarbons.
Used for purging, blanketing, and inerting to prevent explosions and fires, especially in storage tanks, pipelines, and processing units. Nitrogen is also used to pressurize systems and in pneumatic testing.
Utilized in enhanced oil recovery (EOR) techniques to increase oil extraction efficiency from reservoirs. CO2 is also used in some cooling and inerting applications.
Used as a fuel for fired heaters, boilers, and gas turbines within the refinery to provide the necessary heat for various processes.
Employed in leak detection to ensure the integrity of pipelines, vessels, and other critical equipment, preventing leaks of hazardous gases and ensuring safety.
Used as a shielding gas in welding applications, particularly during the construction and maintenance of refinery infrastructure, to protect welds from atmospheric contamination.
Used in the production of sulfuric acid, which is a crucial component in alkylation units for producing high-octane gasoline.
Generated as a byproduct in some refining processes and utilized in the production of syngas (a mixture of CO and H2) for further chemical synthesis.

Petroleum refining and related industries use hydrogen in hydrocracking and refining processes, and nitrogen for purging and maintaining inert atmospheres.
Yes. We offer real-time monitoring for most of our gas applications to make sure you never run out. Our solution provides you (and us) with accurate updates on your levels so we can optimize your gas delivery, detect leaks and other issues – saving you money while supporting our sustainability commitments.
Yes. We make true same-day deliveries with no qualifications. If you call at 4:55 pm and you need a same-day delivery, we will deliver that day.
We offer cost-effective bulk gas solutions including bulk hydrogen and nitrogen for the petroleum refining industry. Your products will be safely delivered by our modern fleet of fuel-efficient trucks, equipped for cylinder and bulk gas delivery.
Yes. WestAir barcodes each cylinder and will scan each cylinder when it enters and leaves your location. This eliminates the need for you to perform time-consuming and error-prone inventory tracking. This process also guarantees accurate monthly billing statements.
Yes. Our dedicated account management and 24/7 emergency service is there to make a bad day better.
