Month: August 2022

One piece flange x flange double block and bleed valves are put through extended testing and ISO fugitive emission tests at the request of our customer in the United Arab Emirates.

Material and specification of these valves are; stainless steel, 20mm ball valves, 3” raised face (class 300), fitted with ½” vent and fire safe handle locking systems.

The first 24x DBB valves of a much larger order undergo fugitive emission and pressure testing pictured here on our new test rigs in Knutsford, England. Once they’ve successfully completed the rigorous process, they’ll leave for the Middle East.

Production commenced this month on a significant order for more than 500 subsea valves made up of ½” Ball Valves and ¾” Check Valves. The order that exceeds £2m is earmarked for shipment to South America for use on the Yellowtail Development, off the Guyanese coast. Oliver Valvetek has again been selected to work with the Subsea Equipment Manufacturer and the end user, following on from previous successful project executions.

A number of important factors were considered by the customer in choosing the valves. Oliver Valvetek was able to provide a robust valve design to mitigate leakage risk to the environment and ensure long-term reliability; stem seals had dual seal technology to ensure double redundancy and the valves fitted with metal-to-metal gasket seals on the valve end connectors as opposed to conventional elastomeric seals.

The customer used collaborative standardised valve design, which allowed the SDU design and valve operational interfaces to remain the same, thus significantly minimising the need for design changes. All the valves on the project are fully qualified to API6APR2F and API17D 2nd Ed and are scheduled for shipping between August 2022 and May 2023.

The ball valves were also subject to an additional specialist qualification for the project to ensure that process wetted sealing was not affected by aggressive process media.

Orders have started to roll off the production line for Oliver’s NEW Hydrogen double block & bleed and ball valves. After months of Research & Development and meticulous testing at our purpose-built R&D facilities in the UK, the ball valve was passed and certified for Hydrogen application by Third Party Inspectors in July of this year.

Various DBB and single isolate ball valves with 14mm Bore Flange to Flange have gone into full production having taken another order, this time from Rockfin Sp. z o.o. Valves pictured here can be seen undergoing pressure testing on our recently installed state-of-the-art test rigs, and are scheduled for immediate dispatch to Poland.

The valves meet with stringent ISO 15848-1:2015 Tightness class B certification including ISO 5208:2015 zero seat leakage rate A. This has been achieved with precision engineering and providing a high-quality seal face finish.

Oliver Valve distributor AF System supplies a mix of Y24 direct mounted 2 valve manifolds and Y53 5 valve manifolds with specially modified connections, and manufactured using exotic materials.

Manifolds and valves are to be used on an existing plant upgrade project for a leading Oil and Gas company based in Bahrain. The material requirements for the project were Inconel 825 and Super Duplex with special welded flanges. Oliver worked closely with AF Systems to provide the right solutions for the application and resulted in a speedy turnaround of manufacturing.
