Oliver Valvetek’s unique approach to Subsea valve design and manufacturing is exemplary and world-leading. They partner with one of the leading Subsea Tree and Subsea Distribution Units manufacturers in the world and is supplying valves to the Exxon Mobil Guyana Futures field.

For the past 5 years, Oliver Valvetek has provided more than 3000 pieces of ½” 10,000psi rated Subsea Trunnion style Ball Valves for the full field development. Due to changes in production, control system requirements, and an operation pressure increase, Exxon Mobil also required a 15,000psi rated valve.

Oliver Valvetek successfully qualified a valve to API6A PR2F and API17D 3rd Ed and included specialist testing and materials that were specific to the pressure and process media application.

Oliver Twinsafe Valves Supplied for MEG Injection Pump Systems

Oliver Twinsafe is to supply Double Block and Bleed pipeline valves for use on Monoethylene glycol (MEG) injection pump systems. MEG is a widely used hydrate inhibitor designed to reduce the risk of hydrate formation in pipelines that could cause blockages.

The order includes a batch of 2 1/16” API 6A 5000psi Double Block and Bleed valves in A182 F55 Super Duplex material that have been dynamically tested to meet the requirements of API 6A PSL level 3. In addition, the valve designs were pre-qualified to API 6A PR2 Appendix F, which involves multiple cycle testing at low, ambient and high temperature with zero leakage allowed across the valve seats throughout these cycles.

A number of Oliver instrumentation valves have also been ordered, taking the total number of valves supplied for this offshore project overall to over 300 with more valves in the pipeline.

Oliver Valves secured a £890,000 order to supply Double Block and Bleed valves in Alloy 625 material with a reduced overall length of 240mm and are to be fitted to Modular Wellsite Packages.

Wellsite packages are integrated skid-based units that house all the equipment between the Christmas tree and the production header. The skids are expected to be installed near the respective wellheads to control the flow and pressure of oil or gas. They include; wellhead shutdown panels to control the wellhead valves, power distribution system with single phase and 3-phase power distributed to modules across the well site. A huge chemical injection system for flowline protection against corrosion, sampling pots to facilitate fluid sampling, and flow lines fitted with instrumentation valves that measure temperature and pressures.

Oliver Valves are to manufacture 240 custom-made valves that are to be shipped to site over the next few weeks.
