Mike Shorts, Vice President and General Manager of Triangle Fluid Controls and President of the Fluid Sealing Association was invited to discuss Canadian solutions for reducing methane emissions with SiriusXM Canada Talks host, Matt Gurney. In light of the recent agreements between Canada and the United States to act upon the historic Paris Agreement through joint efforts in reducing methane emissions, Mike discusses existing and cost effective solutions for reducing methane emissions within the Oil and Gas sector.
Listen to the interview below:
In light of the historic Paris Climate Change Agreement (COP21) in which a global agreement was reached on the reduction of climate change, Triangle Fluid Controls Ltd. (TFC) is prepared to work with Canadian oil & gas and other energy producing industries to help them reach new greenhouse gas reduction targets. Canadian solutions for the Canadian market.
A comprehensive report by leading energy industry consultancy ICF International (ICF) found that methane from the Canadian oil and gas sector can be reduced by 45% below projected 2020 levels, all while using existing, proven and cost-effective technologies. TFC brings over 90 years’ of experience in fluid and gas sealing to Canadian industries across the country and around the world.
“We stand ready to help companies better control methane emissions, using the latest sealing device technology to reduce leaks,” said Mike Shorts, President of TFC and the Fluid Sealing Association (FSA), in a statement by the FSA in October.
“As one of many service companies that work to capture methane emissions, this is an issue we can fix. Let’s keep methane where it belongs – in the pipe instead of the air.”
The Nozzle-Style BNC™ Check Valve Is Long Lasting and Low Maintenance
Exton, PA—DFT Inc., an industry leader in the manufacture of valves for more than 70 years, proudly announces the release of its new BNC™ Check Valve, a nozzle-style, axial-flow check valve specifically designed to excel in high-pressure applications.
Many natural gas companies and other power industries are now placing their pipelines below ground and are looking for a one-piece valve they can weld in and bury. The BNC™ Check Valve answers that demand with a precision nozzle-style valve that uses axial-flow technology to eliminate turbulence and prevent erosion and vibration. This design reduces downtime and maintenance costs and boosts capacity and accuracy.
Additionally, the BNC™ Check Valve provides a critical service to the power industry because the valve’s enhanced leak proofing under high pressure virtually eliminates acid and chemical leakage.
The BNC™ Check Valve is a spring-assisted, center-guided, non-slam check valve. It has an in-line globe-style body with butt weld ends, with the seat integral to the valve body.
The one-piece valve is designed for long life and low maintenance. Because it is welded into piping for service, the valve does not have any in-line maintenance capabilities.
The BNC™ Check Valve’s design meets API 6D and ASME B16.34, and its testing meets MSS SP-61 and API 598 (shell and seat). The valve is available in 10″ to 24″ line sizes, and it is constructed of A216-grade WCB carbon steel and other alloys per ASME 16.34 by request.
Trim materials are carbon steel and stainless steel with a hard-faced seat and disc. The valve can be installed either horizontally or vertically and is compatible with steam, water, and gaseous media. Custom sizing is available.
