Oliver Twinsafe welcomed esteemed guests from McDermott International to their headquarters in Knutsford, England. On a special visit to discuss ongoing projects and to see the latest order progress on the factory floor, it was also a great opportunity to showcase the latest development of a new range of valves for severe service applications.
Director of Market Development for Oliver Twinsafe and Hydcovalves, Nick Howard, along with Inside Sales Manager, Richard Featherstone, introduced Guru Shetty and Sandeep Gurjar from the McDermott team to Twinsafe’s 5 mainstay product groups, they included; Zero Leakage with Metal Seats, Low Fugitive Emission at High Temperature, Low Temperature to -196°C, and Metal Seated Valves at High Temperature up to 500°C.
An exciting discussion point during the tour was the large bore pipeline and transportation valves for hydrogen applications. These could be seen going through on the testing rigs and at the assembly stage. Twinsafe’s transportation valves have been certified by a third-party using 99.9% hydrogen.
