Offshore staff

AMERSFOORT, the Netherlands– Equinor has contracted Yokogawa TechInvent AS to provide 59 FluidCom chemical injection metering valves for two projects offshore Norway.

The valves will be deployed at theJohan Sverdrup Phase 2 project in the Norwegian North Sea and the Johan Castberg field in the Barents Sea. Both projects are scheduled to start-up in 2022.

With flow metering and control functionality, the company says, a FluidCom valve can stably and automatically inject chemicals into a well or pipeline. The valve has few moving parts, so the risk of failure is low, and a self-cleaning function is provided that eliminates the need for maintenance.
