StraightFlo™ Valves MAKE OFFSHORE EASIER
GAS GATHERING APPLICATION
StraightFlo™ Valves MAKE OFFSHORE EASIER
The legacy plate valves of an offshore E&P company are failing one to two times per week. Large numbers of spare valves must be kept on hand. Pulled valves must be transported to shore for machining.
STRAIGHTFLO™ RESULT
StraightFlo™ Valves operate for approximately 4 weeks —a 6X increase in MTBF. On site servicing (with < 5% of modules being changed) eliminates the need to stockpile spares or transport valves to shore for repair. We are continuing to collaborate with the customer to further extend valve life.
