Refineries

A refinery runs hot, continuously and close to its limits. From crude and vacuum columns to hydrotreaters and heater isolation, our pressure-seal gate and globe valves, trunnion ball valves and non-slam check valves are specified where leakage, coking and pump-trip reversal cannot be tolerated.
