Samson Ringo has recently completed the manufacturing, testing and shipment of an ESDV Top entry ball valve 36” 1500# to be installed in the IDKU field in Alexandria (Egypt). The end user of these valves is Burullus Gas Co. / Rashid Petroleum. The valve is going to be installed in the offshore pipeline to a slug catcher related to a brownfield engineering project made by ENPPI, who has been the direct customer of this order.
Manufacturing of this valve has represented a challenge to Samson Ringo due to its great size and weight, as well as its specifications. This is the heaviest valve ever produced by Samson Ringo with a total weight of 50 tons, so special transportation to the port had to be arranged.
