Cryogenic valves for LNG marine applications
Including both SNRI and Malbranque brands, VALCO is a leading actor who has continuously helped in LNG development, starting from the first engineering prototypes in the early 60’s with the methane carrier ‘’Le Beauvais’’ and the LNG Terminal in Le Havre,France. Fabrication of product series continued progressively with new Terminals for importing, in France and Benelux, then world-wide.
SNRI brand has also become a world leader of on-board mounted cryogenic valves with 2/3 of methane ships being already equipped ( +300 boats ). Our proposed range is composed of Low Pressure ( serie 150 valves ) to High Pressure ( serie 2500 ), in supplying Regasification Terminals as well as LNG Fuel Gas systems.
VALCO also offers a total solution for valves that include Stainless Steel Actuators (316 ) especially studied to resist difficult marine environment extremes. This whole range is certified by the principal ship Classification Societies and Off-Shore platforms.
"SNRI has received 5 Million € Euros ( 5.3 Million US Dollars ) orders for LNG tankers and FSRUs
SNRI, member of Valco Group, has reinforced its leader position in Cryogenic valves with the confirmation of purchase orders for 14 vessels recently granted by DSME and HHI. The Po’s confirm the right choice of SNRI to fulfill needs of the complete LNG chain on the Marine side by proposing Low pressure valves and also class 2500 Cryogenic valves from 1’’ inch (for MEGI gas supply) up to 16’’ inches for FSRU Regas system. This unique large range provided is the result of long investment done by SNRI on the supply including a Bunker for pneumatic and cryogenic testing and larger CNC machines"
