Yamal LNG project recently obtained a license for the commissioning of the first LNG train related to 58 gas wells from the South Tambey Field and already launched the first shipment of LNG to China through the Northern Sea new route.
Samson Ringo has participated in this project since last 2016 supplied a package of cage guided globe control valves to be installed in Yamal LNG plant. Valves of this contract were a technical challenge to Samson Ringo due to the combination of severe operations conditions and extreme climate conditions of the site, where the winter temperatures can drop to -50ºC and can be frozen for up to nine months a year.
Scope of the supplied valves were more than 20 pneumatic control valves up to 20” 600# soft seated and leakage class VI and presented several technical challenges.
