Russian diversified machine-building and engineering group serving the pumping, compression, oil-field equipment, and oil and gas processing markets.
Last updated August 31, 2026
Overview
HMS Group is a diversified Russian machine-building and engineering holding company whose principal activities center on pumps, pumping systems, compressors, oil and gas field equipment, and related engineering and procurement services. Its headquarters are in Moscow, while its production and engineering assets are located in Russia and Belarus. The group is structured as a Russian joint-stock company with subordinate enterprises operating in both countries. The group traces its operating origins to Hydromashservice, established in 1993. Hydromashservice initially supplied pumps and pumping systems to Russia and other Commonwealth of Independent States markets, including Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, and Kyrgyzstan. By the mid-1990s, it had expanded its customer base in sectors such as oil and gas, electric power, water supply, and municipal utilities. This initial distribution and systems-integration activity became the foundation for a broader industrial holding. From 2003 onward, HMS Group expanded through a combination of organic development and acquisitions. The acquisition program brought together pump manufacturers, compressor producers, oil-field equipment makers, research and development organizations, engineering firms, service companies, and enterprises involved in engineering, procurement, and construction. The resulting portfolio gave the group capabilities extending from component and equipment manufacturing to integrated systems and project delivery. Its industrial pumps division includes HMS Livgidromash, Livnynasos, Promburvod, Bobruisk Machine Building Plant, Hydromashservice, Dimitrovgradhimmash, and Nizhnevartovskremservice. These businesses support applications that require industrial pumping equipment, pumping systems, and pumping stations. The group’s oil and gas equipment and solutions business unit includes HMS Neftemash, Sibneftemash, Sibnefteavtomatika, Giprotyumenneftegaz, and Tomskgazstroy. Its activities cover skid-mounted and modular oil-field equipment, automation-related capabilities, engineering, and associated services. A separate compressors business unit includes Kazancompressormash and NIIturbokompressor. This part of the organization addresses compressors, gas-compression systems, and compressor-station equipment. HMS Group also has an oil and gas processing technologies business unit, HMS Processing Technologies, focused on process technologies and solutions for the oil and gas industry. The group’s business model combines manufacturing with engineering, complex procurement, systems integration, and servicing. Rather than operating solely as a maker of individual industrial machines, HMS Group has been organized to deliver equipment packages and project solutions for energy, oil and gas, water, utilities, and related infrastructure customers. The available reference material identifies Russia and Belarus as the principal locations of its operating assets and describes its earlier commercial reach across several CIS markets. HMS Group has participated in Russian industrial and sector associations, including the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, the Russian Engineering Union, the Russian Pump Manufacturers Association, the Union of Oil and Gas Equipment Producers, and the New Gas Industry Technology Association of Equipment Manufacturers. Publicly available material supplied for this entry does not establish current ownership, listing status, executive leadership, financial performance, website, or present operating status; those fields are therefore left unspecified.
History
HMS Group developed from Hydromashservice, a company founded in 1993 to supply pumps and pumping systems in Russia and other CIS markets. Its early customers and applications were associated with oil and gas, electric power, water supply, and utilities. By 1995, Hydromashservice had expanded its CIS presence and was described as a leading supplier specializing in pumps and systems for these sectors. The group’s transformation into a diversified industrial holding began in 2003, when it started combining internal growth with acquisitions. Livgidromash joined the group in 2003 and was later renamed HMS Livgidromash. In 2004, HMS Neftemash was acquired, adding oil-field equipment capabilities. Nizhnevartovskremservice followed in 2006, strengthening the group’s service and regional oil-industry presence. The acquisition program broadened further in 2007 with Tomskgazstroy and Dimitrovgradhimmash. Promburvod of Minsk, Belarus, joined in 2008, extending the industrial pump portfolio across the group’s second principal operating country. Sibnefteavtomatika was acquired in 2009, followed by Giprotyumenneftegaz in 2010. These transactions added engineering, automation, and oil and gas project capabilities. In 2011, Sibneftemash and Bobruisk Machine Building Plant became part of the group. This was followed in 2012 by the acquisition of Kazancompressormash, a Russian compressor manufacturer, which established a more substantial compressor business within HMS Group. NIIturbokompressor joined in 2013, adding further compressor research, design, and engineering capacity. The resulting organization was divided into business units covering industrial pumps, oil and gas equipment and solutions, compressors, and oil and gas processing technologies. Its industrial companies manufacture or support pumps, pumping systems, and pumping stations. Its oil and gas businesses provide skid-mounted and modular field equipment together with engineering and related project services. The compressor unit focuses on compressors, gas-compression systems, and compressor stations, while the processing-technologies unit addresses oil and gas processing solutions. HMS Group’s historical development therefore reflects a move from pump distribution and supply toward a multi-business industrial platform. Acquisitions connected manufacturing plants with engineering, research, service, and EPC-related organizations. The reference material also records the group’s membership in several Russian industrial and equipment associations. No reliable current information was supplied regarding its present ownership, executive team, financial condition, website, or operational status.
