A chlorine injection skid was being designed by an engineering firm in Houston, TX, U.S.A. for the delivery of 15% chlorine to the cooling water for newly installed fractionators at a nearby refinery.

Trelleborg, a provider of sealing solutions to the oil & gas industry, with branches in North and South America, recently announced that the firm's offshore operation has secured a significant contract with a major shipyard.

The Festo MPA-L valve manifold is scalable down to a single valve slice, so directional valves can be adapted to any application. The sub-base is made from a rugged polymer design that offers good corrosion resistance and light weight.

Pneumadyne's new Pilot Operated Check Valves are ideal for reliably holding an actuator position in a variety of applications. They are designed for use in applications requiring an actuator to be locked in position.

ASCO Numatics recently introduced the 361 series of stainless steel pilot valves featuring a unique design that eliminates “sticking” problems in low cycle demand applications. These problems can occur in control valves installed in the pneumatic logic panels used to control safety monitoring systems in offshore oil and gas production facilities.

The Type 730 is part of Chemline’s 700 series of diaphragm valves. This pneumatically actuated diaphragm valve has a plastic diaphragm actuator which can be either normally closed, normally open or double acting.

The Efremov Research Institute of Electrophysical Apparatus (NIIEFA), based in St Petersburg, has developed a technology to increase the wear and corrosion resistance and fatigue strength of different items from metals and alloys by 200–400%.
