Industry: Downstream
Plant type: Chemical
Application: Hydrogen Isolation
Location: Texas
Product: V1-1
THE WIN: This customer had a long standing
history of using “Y” pattern globe valves for isolation valves in hydrogen isolation service. After reviewing the benefits of the ValvTechnologies’ zero-leakage design, the customer changed their specification to require ValvTechnologies’ zero-leakage, metal seated ball valves.
Industry: Downstream
Plant type: H-oil unit
Location: Belarus
SOLUTION: ValvTechnologies' decades of engineering experience led to the design of its superior, severe service zero-leakage isolation valves that exceed industry standards. In this case, it also led to ValvTechnologies' largest ever h-oil project win and the displacement of a former firmly ingrained competitor.
Industry: Coking
Plant type: Refining
Application: Coking – furnace heater isolation
Location: Minnesota
Product: V1-2
SOLUTION: ValvTechnologies committed to the customer’s short lead time requirement based on their on-site delivery needs by offering expedite options with existing coker inventory/stock, changing out to forgings where able and working with valued suppliers to expedite materials with negligible impact on overall project cost.
Industry: Heavy oil
Plant type: Refinery
Application: LC finer
Location: Texas City, Texas
Product: V Series
SOLUTION: ValvTechnologies’ replaced approximately 250 valves in the late 1990’s due to issues with the competitor’s valves. The facility ran for 14 years without needing to service ValvTechnologies’ products. ValvTechnologies’ products continue to perform exceptionally well, solving the plants problems, eliminating fires, leaks and equipment failures previously experienced with competitive products.
Industry: Upstream oil & gas
Plant type: Oil field
Application: Molecular sieve dehydration units
Location: Kazakhstan
SOLUTION: The customer switched to ValvTechnologies’ V1-4, solid Inconel 825 and the valves lasted for two years vs. the competitor’s 1-90 days and saved them millions of dollars of lost production. The customer has now standardized on ValvTechnologies’ valves in all their molecular sieve units. A second order was placed for 74 V Series valves, sizes 12” and 16” in solid Inconel.
