A seating and locking system for turbomachinery attached to the customer column housing the turbomachine. The seating and locking system includes two or more actuated pistons that push against a piston seat or locking groove of the turbomachine. The actuated pistons secure the turbomachine within the costumer column to prevent the turbomachine from moving and getting damaged. The seating and locking system further includes a seat attached below the customer column with two or more spring loaded rods. The seat forces the customer column and the turbomachine to remain fixed to the bottom of the vessel housing the customer column and the turbomachine. Embodiments can be used with pumps, expanders, turbines, compressors, and fans.
