Feedback from engineers and professionals worldwide
It provides a clear explanation of the different types of nickel alloys, such as Inconel and Incoloy, and their uses in high-temperature and corrosive environments. This is a valuable resource for anyone working with nickel alloy pipes.
Pretty good content, helped me understand what's in these kits so I can do BOM's for my projects without worry.
I am 4 years working in the oil and gas industry. This website is very useful for improving my knowledge.
Thank you very much. Your blog helped me a lot during my research!
This is perhaps one of the most detailed breakdown of valve material specifications that goes right down to the miniscule details. Thorough work!
The selection criteria and full descriptions of available flow meter types are quite helpful. Those working in the field who want to learn more about flow measurement will find this very useful.
Excellent post! It is vital to recognize that forging products are more robust than cast ones. Very informative content.
I was totally confused about what ball valves are and how they work but after reading your blog post it is clear. Thanks for sharing!
Great article! Quality of valves is hugely important in oil and gas transportation, since they can reduce methane gas emissions in transit.
I was looking for this information relating to forging and steel casting. You have really eased my work!
