Dear Mr. Aleman:
Reference is made to the above mentioned registration statement (the
"Registration Statement") filed by Dresser-Rand Group Inc. (the "Issuer"), the
additional registrants listed therein (the "Guarantors" and together with the
Issuer, the "Registrants") on February 11, 2005. The Registrants hereby request
the withdrawal of the Registration Statement in order to simplify and streamline
the Staff's review process on a concurrent registration statement of the Issuer
on Form S-1 and the Registrants' financial reporting process, pursuant to Rule
477 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Registrants have not sold any
securities in connection with the proposed offering. The Registrants will
shortly file a new registration statement and will pursue the exchange offer
