zdas04 is absolutely correct. I was thinking that you would need a dry screw. Not sure who you are considering, but http://kobelcocompressors.com//index.php/screw_compressor/ may be an option. Apparently they have experience with my initial concern of polymerization.

One of my clients has resorted to tack welding the nut to the stud on one suction valve in their facility. It is in a high speed compressor and the valve is in a nominal 1000 psig service. It solved the problem. They had experienced a few failures a year prior to resorting to tack welding...
I am not sure of the logistics, but can you get time off during the day? Like longer lunches of a couple of hours every few days. Perhaps they want all for be around for Start and Close of Business, that may be important for the culture.
UG 43 g is for stud threads, UG43e is for threaded connections. Find the minimum thickness of your cap at the thread location and confirm minimum thread engagement.
Can the CI pump take higher loads than published by the OEM? I imagine it can.

How do the OEM allowable loads for the CI pump compare to API?
Is a dimensionally equivalent pump available with a higher load capability?
Just putting in expansion joints may not be a solution. They also need to be installed correctly, which may also require pipe/support alterations.
The GE document does not state it is Controlled or Proprietary, without that it does not matter much what GE considers, unless the forum has a policy otherwise.
Professional does not equal salary, if it does I missed that when I read the rules for my licenses.
If it does, I wish my employers good luck getting that OT money back from my wife.
Truly unfortunate situation. My experience with AIs have been positive when problems arise. Most are helpful and can get you in the right direction.
The seal welding of a reducer appears reasonable to me, but I have never seen it or aware of any Code Cases that address this issue.

When/if the economy ever improves remote work may be a necessity, right now it is not. The employers have all the control. Nominally ten years ago I worked for a few years from the house. It worked well for the employer, but they also could not find the skill set readily available I had to...
My understanding this is very common is Siberia. I also understand that mishaps are not pretty. Be cognizant of how much energy you are storing. To me, that would be more important than N2 costs. I have been near 2 failures during a pneumatic testing, both a results from improper assembly...
