Pipeline
services
and supplies
UK-based Global Oilfield Supplies Ltd
supplies pipeline equipment to the world’s
oil, gas and petrochemical industries,
specialising in valves and gaskets as its
main products.
As the company heads into its ninth
year, it continues to grow by adding new
stock lines and increasing existing ones
to keep up to date with the market place.
Utilising its stocks and dedicated factories
it is able to supply a full range of pipeline
valves on a stock based delivery or on a
longer lead time to suit the customer’s
specific requirements.
As a recent example, the company
supplied two 30" gate valves to Exxon
Mobil Europe for an unscheduled
shutdown. After receiving the order on
a Tuesday, the company carried out
the client specific modifications required
and delivered them via dedicated driver
overnight on Friday; the valves were
received on-site Saturday morning and
the line was up and running again by the
evening.
The Global Oilfield Supplies range
covers all gate, globe, check and ball
valves from sizes ¼" and above, rated
ANSI 150, 300, 600, 800, 900, 1500 and
2500, with a variety of end connections
including flanged RF and RTJ, butt weld,
socket weld and screwed. These are
available off-the-shelf in various grades
of carbon, low carbon, stainless and
chrome-moly steels, with an unlimited
range of other material grades available
on lead-time delivery.
The company can accommodate the
increasing requirements for bespoke
valves and specials, and in some
circumstances a bespoke valve can be
designed, approved, manufactured and
completed in as little as four weeks.
Modification is also a key object to meeting
specific valve requirements when time is
of the essence, for example breakdowns,
being able to meet the exact requirements
needed but at the same time eliminating a
lengthy factory lead time delivery utilising
stock valves to modify trims, extensions,
connections and bypasses.
