Valve Lubrication

Overview and Challenges

Re-lubrication of plug and wellhead valves is a crucial step to maintain operation integrity. Proper and timely lubrication prolongs a valve’s service life and offers the following benefits that increases the product’s life cycle:

  • Maintains a secondary back-up grease seal around the metal to metal fit surfaces

  • Provides a barrier that protects the valve from sand and other contaminates found in a production flow line

  • Assists in reducing the torque required to open and close the valves

Key Components/Solutions

  • 5K, 10K, and 15K pumps and complete systems, high pressure hose and hose reels, control valves, accessories

  • Pump stations with pressure primers to pump heavy bodied valve lubricants from original refinery containers
