The catalytic reforming process is one that is essential to the refining of petroleum. To get the most out of this process, you require the right equipment. More specifically, you require the right valves. This article goes over the basics of...
Valves used for oil and gas operate in many mission-critical functions, including controlling flow rates, isolation and shut-off, and other processing and production operations. In most scenarios, these valves face severe operating conditions,...
For every piping system in the world, there are valves. Valves are crucial in the oil and gas industries as they help control the flow of whatever is flowing through the components. Whether oil, gas, other liquid, or vapors are flowing through the...
In 2010, the consumption of crude oil and natural gas represented over 57% of the world's total energy usage in that year. The rest comprised coal and then nuclear and renewables at just 13%. From 2000 to 2010, crude oil consumption has been slow...
There is a lucrative industry trend that you may want to know about that is projected to grow at an annual rate of 5% over the next five years. The valve industry is developing at a phenomenal rate, and the use of industrial valves is expected to...
Industrial Gas Valves In Remote Locations One of the biggest challenges of industrial gas production comes down to location. Typically, production and processing happen in remote areas where quick repair is not an option. It is critical that...
Every time a barrel of oil is produced, there are several more barrels of produced water to go along with it. This water comes out of oil wells, brought up along with oil during production. It’s full of oil and metals, and often includes natural...
Oil processing is a challenging environment by itself, and when you add a marine/offshore setting, every piece of equipment has to work that much harder in the face of water, salt, corrosion, and pressure. Marine valves have to work in unique and...
There are not many environments that are as challenging as the delayed coking process. Temperatures reach upward of 1000°F and coke valves have to maintain reliability while managing the abrasive and erosive coke by-product and undergoing extreme...
People in all kinds of industrial settings need industrial valves every day. Our clients are wide-ranging, and include cement factories that seek the best deals for ball valves and maintenance firms that had been shopping around better valves. For...
