  • Patent number: 11629787
    Abstract: A valve has flow trim assembly that can be quickly and efficiently removed and repaired or replaced. A body section having a central through bore defines an inlet, an outlet and inner chamber or space. An upstream cap and inlet hub are disposed at the inlet of the body member, while a downstream cap and outlet hub are disposed at the outlet of the body member. An actuator stem extends into the inner chamber, while a gear train can transfer torque force applied to the actuator stem to a rotator. A first (movable) trim member is attached to the rotator and can be selectively rotated relative to a second (fixed) trim member. The first and second trim members cooperate to adjust flow opening through the valve.

  • Patent number: 11598439
    Abstract: A valve having a flow trim assembly that can be quickly and efficiently removed and repaired or replaced. A body section having a central through bore that defines an inlet, an inner chamber or space, and two selectable outlets. Further the selectable outlets can direct flow in either a 90 degree “angle” orientation or at straight “in-line” orientation. An actuator stem extends into the inner chamber. A first (movable) trim member is attached to the rotator, and can be selectively rotated relative to a second (fixed) trim member. The first and second trim members cooperate to adjust flow opening through the valve. A valve bonnet that allows direct coupling of an actuator to the valve.

  • Patent number: 11585184
    Abstract: A dual-open entry injector head positioning system installed on support structures, such as conventional lifting frames, utilized over wells on offshore vessels. The injector head positioning system is lighter and more compact than conventional equipment positioning systems, while permitting simultaneous deployment of multiple intervention systems (such as, for example, continuous tubing and wireline) from said lifting frame.

  • Patent number: 11339878
    Abstract: A throttling valve that allows staged pressure drop increments upstream and/or downstream of a primary flow trim assembly within a valve body to help prevent cavitation and freezing effects. The flow trim assembly can be quickly and efficiently removed from the throttling valve (and repaired or replaced) without requiring disassembly of the throttling valve from a flow line or other fluid conduit, and without requiring removal of an automated actuator. A throttling valve body that allows direct mounting of actuators to the valve without the need for brackets and linkages.

  • Patent number: 10591086
    Abstract: A throttling valve that allows an operator to remove and replace the flow trim of the throttling valve without disassembling and/or removing the throttling valve from a flow line, and without removing an actuator, which eliminates the need to recalibrate said actuator. The throttling valve also allows drops in fluid pressure to be staged upstream and/or downstream of a main multi-port-disc trim within the same valve body to help prevent cavitation and freezing of fluids contained within the valve. The throttling valve also allows direct connection of actuators to a valve body.

  • Patent number: 10344891
    Abstract: A choke valve that allows an operator to remove and replace the flow trim of the choke valve without disassembling and/or removing the choke valve from the flow line, and without removing the actuator, which eliminates the step of recalibrating the actuator.
