Purpose-built flow control solutions

Working with LNG (liquified natural gas) is notoriously tough on valves, with continuous switching, huge temperature ranges, cryogenic processes, significant differential pressures, and noise and cavitation issues. At every stage, from compression, purification and drying to fractionation and liquefaction there are application-specific technical challenges.

We offer a range of Neles™ valves, actuators and valve controllers that are designed for the demanding conditions found in the LNG industry. We test and develop valves and materials for cryogenic service in our own dedicated cryogenic testing facilities and laboratories. All Neles™ valves are built using carefully selected materials and seat construction to ensure durable tightness and years of reliable service.

Automation for the whole LNG supply chain

As the demand for LNG continues to grow, it’s important to ensure both safe, reliable process control and efficient, profitable operations. Valmet provides complete process automation solutions for the LNG industry, including the Valmet DNA Distributed Control System with integrated HIMA safety systems. Valmet DNA can be used to control the entire LNG supply chain, from production plants and remote-controlled compression stations to terminals and liquefaction. And, with the Valmet DNA Integrated Operations solution, companies get the accurate data they need to improve the efficiency of their logistics and production planning.

LNG processing and intelligent valves for a demanding service

The demand for natural gas is increasing globally due to its clean-burning characteristics, which is especially true for producing electricity and many industries are looking into LNG as an alternative, cleaner source of energy. For LNG producers the difference between running safe, profitable plants often comes down to choosing flow control partners with the experience and knowledge to get the job done right.
