REDUCE OPERATIONAL COSTS
Using a valve signature series test, you can easily track
the operating health of your control valve without
removing it from the line.
For years, reactive and routine maintenance has been the
standard approach to valve and instrument care in the oil &
gas industry. “Run-to-fail” often seemed like the most cost-
effective option. A traditional alternative to the run-to-fail
strategy is schedule-based maintenance where inspections and
refurbishments are performed to a schedule—whether they are
necessary or not. As offshore production grows and technology
expectations increase, it’s evident that reactive and schedule-
based maintenance is not a sustainable strategy.
By implementing field-proven control valves and instruments
from the very start of your planning and designing process,
you can optimize your maintenance program, streamline your
process, improve your performance, and protect your personnel.
