Subsea check valves for Aramco CRPO 82 & 83 project
CHALLENGE:
The CRPO 82 and 83 projects at the Zuluf AH East and West Oil Fields in Saudi Arabia involved building new offshore facilities like wellhead topsides, tie-in platforms, and electrical distribution platforms. The subsea valves required for this development had to ensure maximum reliability and sealing integrity under harsh conditions. Aramco and NPCC needed high-performance subsea swing check valves capable of withstanding the demanding operational environment while complying with API 6DSS design requirements and achieving a 50-year design life.
SOLUTION:
AMPO POYAM VALVES supplied several 10” 1500# subsea swing check valves, each gear-operated and equipped with a Class 4 ISO 13628-8 interface. The valves were internally clad with Alloy 625 weld overlay to provide outstanding corrosion resistance and durability over long-term subsea service.
These subsea check valves fully complied with all project requirements, ensuring reliable non-return functionality and robust performance in Aramco’s upstream facilities. The successful execution of this project once again demonstrated AMPO POYAM VALVES’ expertise and trustworthiness as a leading global manufacturer of highly engineered subsea valve solutions.
