Valve Solution

The Valve Technologies

We can help to design and manufacturing of zero-leakage metal-seated ball valve solutions for severe service applications. What matters most is our focus on helping you meet your challenges safely and efficiently.

We are committed to providing the best isolation solutions to ensure customer satisfaction, safety and reliability and improved process and performance.

Fossil Power

We can help to designs and manufactures valves specifically for the unique demands of power generation applications.
The standard operating conditions of power generation: high temperatures, high pressures and at times, high cycling, can severely impact the service life of a valve. Special consideration should be made in the selection of metallurgy, sealing design and operation. The manufacture of metal-seated, severe service valves, has a proven performance record of providing field tested, ZERO Leakage solutions.

The valves meet the standards of:

  • ASME codes B31.1 Power Piping Code
  • ASME Section 1 Boiler and Pressure
  • Vessel Code
  • B16.34 Valve Standards
  • ASME TDP-1 1998 Prevention of Water
  • Damage to Steam Turbines

The application for Fossil Power:

  • HP Feedwater System
  • Boiler System
  • Sootblower System
  • Turbine Steam & Extraction System
  • LP Feedwater System
  • Inerting Steam System
  • Auxiliary steam system
  • Combined Cycle Plant Applications

Upstream Oil & Gas

In the Oil & Gas industry, valve performance can be compromised by combinations of process conditions such as high temperature, high pressure, high solids or high cycles. The ValvTechnologies design is quite unlike that found in floating and trunnion-style ball valves and is a complete departure from the traditional gate and plug valves found in this industry. The ValvTechnologies design uses an integral seat rather than loose seats.
The integral seat provides a stable platform onto which the ball is constantly loaded with very high force, making it impossible to trap solids between the ball and seat. When the ball is in the open position, the seats are protected from the flow. The integral seat also eliminates the potential for leakage between a loose seat and the valve body.

The application for Upstream Oil & Gas:

  • HIPPS, such as:
    Pipeline
    Inlet of gas treating facilities (front end)
    Slug catcher
    Warm separator
  • Sour Gas
  • Molecular Sieve
  • Enhanced Oil Recovery
  • Offshore Production such as:
    HIPPS
    Process isolation
    ESDV (Emergency Shut-Down Valves)
    1st, 2nd and 3rd stage separator level control and isolation
    Produced water level control and isolation
    Compressor isolation
    Export compressor flow & pressure control
    Flare / Vent isolation
    Pressure control
    Drilling mud check valve
    Drilling mud isolation valve

Petrochemical

The advantages of the design isolation valves stem from the fact that the ball is “fixed” in place with the high load pressure Belleville spring. This allows the valve to operate in the presence of polymer and shear solid plugs of material. Unlike most valve designs, the zero-leakage carbide seat surface is part of the valve body, so that solids cannot interfere with operation and sealing.

The application for Petrochemical:
