Quality valves worldwide in weeks
The Secret to Success
BSM Valves is often called upon to manufacture valves or valve components for environments that require special knowledge, specialist experience and specialist products. Here is a selection of recent projects.Scandinavia 2007
During scheduled maintenance on a new diesel line at an oil refinery in Scandinavia in the summer of 2007, problems involving the contamination of head exchangers had been discovered in a number of valves. In addition to this 500 faulty valves were discovered, meaning that routine maintenance now needed large-scale repairs. Limiting shut-down time was essential. Operations at the refinery were due to go back online and over one hundred metal-seated ball valves were still urgently needed.
BSM Valves were asked to produce more than one hundred 2-inch to 6-inch metal-seated ball valves for high-pressure application, in just eight weeks. In addition to the production of these valves, BSM helped the client design an improved valve which would better meet their specific requirements. “The client was extremely satisfied with the quality of the valve and the level of service concerning the redesign. Not only did we give good value, we got all the valves manufactured and delivered one week early!” comments Peter Besseling, BSM Valves “This job was a landmark project for us. It had a considerable impact on our reputation and we hope to continue in the same vein in the future.
