The wells are connected to the process facility via a production header manifold, which have gate valves installed. From there, the flowline continues to the process facility, which includes equipment such as separators, heat exchangers, compressors, storage tanks and flare stack. Gate, plug and ball valves are all employed in this wide range of equipment, and a maintenance program using high quality lubricants and sealants is a critical measure. RS Clare has product solutions for all these valve types.
