Oliver Valves to supply Malaysia’s first Carbon Capture & Sequestration (CCS) project

The Kasawari Phase 2 project is located 200km off the coast of Bintulu, Sarawak in water depths of around 100 metres. The offshore platform is expected to reduce carbon dioxide emissions emitted from flaring by 3.3 million tonnes per year, making it one of the world’s largest CCS projects.

Successful design, testing and manufacturing of our high-performance instrumentation and subsea pipeline valves for Hydrogen and CCS applications is being adopted at scale by the world’s leading energy producing companies such as Petronas.

Oliver Valves Secure £890k Order for Modular Wellsites

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.

SIL 3 Certification for Oliver Twinsafe

Oliver Twinsafe Trunnion Mounted valves and Floating Ball Valves have successfully been SIL certified at level 3. This new and important milestone provides operators with safety assurances at the highest level and has resulted from many months of engineering design, QA reviews, and audits.

 

A SIL (Safety Integrity Level) is a measure of safety system performance, in terms of probability of failure on demand (PFD). The higher the SIL level, the higher the associated safety level, and the lower probability that a system will fail to perform properly. SIL 3 is the highest rating that can be given to a valve.

 

High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems (HIPPS) and remotely located well-head manifolds are normally associated with SIL certification. Operators are to gain additional safety assurances from installing our ball valves, in that, when the valve is required to perform its fail-safe function, the probability of it not performing is extremely low.

 

SIL 3 certification has been awarded by Exida, a third-party safety assessment organisation. The certification covers our range of Single Isolate valves, and Double Block and Bleed valves comprising two separate isolates within the assembly. Bore sizes for Trunnion Mounted valves range from 1” – 16” and 1” – 3” on Floating Ball valves.
