A multi-stage gas compression system useful at the production site and at central collection points, having an energy efficient and effective intercooler system. The system includes a reciprocating compressor having a plurality of compressor valves and cylinders configured in series to provide staged compression to the natural gas. Coupled with the compressor are an inlet port for receiving natural gas to be compressed, and an outlet port for delivering compressed fluid from the compressor to a discharge line, to the transmission pipeline or storage. Facilitating transmission and intercooling of the natural gas between cylinders are a plurality of pipes, each pipe in close proximity with an intercooler. The rate of cooling of the intercooler is determined by a control system coupled therewith, including a temperature sensor positioned within pipe proximal to the intercooler, and means to compare the temperature measured by the temperature sensor and an optimal temperature or temperature range, and determine appropriate levels of cooling provided by the intercooler.

A connection structure for a motor of an air compressor contains: a base, a cylinder, a motor, and a transmission mechanism. The base includes a first positioning orifice and a second positioning orifice. The cylinder includes an air storage seat. A small-diameter gear is inserted through the first positioning orifice to fit on the motor, a bearing housing is accommodated in the first positioning orifice, and the motor includes a magnetic coil. The transmission mechanism actuates a piston to move in the cylinder reciprocately so as to compress air. The magnetic coil includes a first segment and a second segment, and the base includes two symmetrical elongated plates which respectively have two hooks. The base further includes two symmetrical arcuate retainers.
