Desalination
Desalination – the provision of clean water; the process of converting salt water into fresh water for human consumption and irrigation. The 2 principal processes are multi-stage flash distillation and reverse osmosis (RO). The former requiring larger diameter valves and the latter smaller diameter but higher pressure, Goodwin Check Valves are in service on both these types of plant.
Oil and Gas Production
Goodwin Check Valves are specified and used throughout the design of oil and gas production facilities, both onshore and offshore, from the high pressure flowlines through to on-platform processing. Goodwin has supplied to over 1000 offshore projects globally meeting the stringent specifications associated with the offshore industry.
LNG
With over 20 years of experience of valve manufacture for cryogenic applications, Goodwin has supplied to many of the world’s most prestigious LNG projects supplying to all aspects of the LNG chain: gas liquefaction and export, ocean going LNG tankers, receiving / regasification terminal projects.
Pipeline
Goodwin Check Valves are in extensive use in the compressor stations and pumping stations of many of world’s cross-country and country-to-country pipelines. Many for the transportation of energy and traversing 1000s of kilometres, by their nature these pipelines are critical - Goodwin Check Valves are selected for their reliability and high performance.
Refinery
In oil refineries for conversion of crude oil into fuels and oils and in natural gas purifying plants for conversion of raw gas into fuel gases and recovery of natural gas liquids (NGLs) such as ethane, propane, butanes and pentanes, Goodwin Check Valves are employed throughout these process plants and their associate utilities facilities.
Petrochemical
In all types of petrochemical plant: Ethylene Cracking, Naphtha Cracking, Ethylene, Propylene, Butadiene, EG, EO, LAB, LAO, Methanol, MTBE, Aromatics, Toluene, Benzene and more, Goodwin Check Valves are in use throughout these processes protecting plant and equipment.
Chemical & Fertilisers
In chemical plants such as PTA, VAM, VCM, and in the Ammonia, Urea and Nitrate plants of fertilizer complexes, Goodwin Check Valves are in use throughout these processes protecting plant and equipment. Typically, as in PTA, with these plants the materials are highly corrosion resistant such as Titanium.
Power Plant
For steam turbine power plant the steam is created by boiling water by nuclear fission or the burning of fossil fuels or geothermal power. Goodwin Check Valves are in service in all these types of power plant on critical pumping systems, such as feedwater pumps, and are chosen for their high reliability and performance.
Subsea
With the search for oil and gas entering deeper water the demand for high integrity, forged subsea nozzle check valves is growing. Available in pressure ratings in excess of API 10K and tested to API PSL 3G, the Goodwin Nozzle Check Valve is an ideal solution to meet the industry’s demanding material and testing requirements along with a proven reliability in both oil and gas applications.
