Oliver Twinsafe Chosen to Supply World’s Single Largest Offshore Wind Farm

Oliver Twinsafe are to supply a range of Modular and Monoflange double block and bleed valves to the Hornsea 3 Wind Farm project located in the UK sector of the North Sea. Hornsea 3 has two platforms, link 1 and link 2. These are unmanned and operated from shore with access to carry out maintenance done by vessel or helicopter.

These High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) offshore converter platforms have a combined capacity to produce 2.852 GW, enough to power the average daily needs of over 3 million UK homes. This makes it the single largest offshore wind project in the world.

Manufactured from 316 Stainless Steel, Super Duplex, and Titanium materials, valves are to be used in cooling systems and firewater applications. Regional Manager for Scotland and Scandinavia, Colin Wood, says, “We’re extremely proud as a business to supply valves for operation on large-scale green energy projects, and it’s particularly exciting to be working with a UK-based green project, such as Hornsea 3.”

We’re committed to supporting a Net Zero Emission future, and have recently launched a range of zero seat leakage valves for hydrogen applications. Our investment in designing new and innovative valve technologies is having an enormous impact and is hugely significant – even a game changer!”

Oliver Valves Rejuvenate DBBs for Brunei Shell

Oliver Valves has supplied Brunei Shell with a broad range of topside valves for many years, including their Double Block and Bleed (DBB) Valve, and has provided huge cost and time-saving benefits to Shell’s ‘Rejuvenation’ project.

The main purpose of the project, now a decade old, is to update critical equipment on all of their platforms. Updates include safe and reliable DBB valves that comply with ASME B16.34 – an industry standard for valves.

In recent years, Oliver’s relationship with supplying Brunei Shell has further strengthened due to the standardisation of its DBB’s to incorporate a needle valve, and leakage tested as a complete assembly, making them ready for immediate onsite installation. This is saving Brunei Shell huge amounts in both time and in costs.

Renowned for quality and reliability, Oliver Valves is receiving significant interest in the supply of its DBB valves with integrated needle valves to Brunei Shell platforms around the world.
