Actuation for LNG projects

To date, Rotork’s international sales network has received orders for more than 5000 valve actuators, embracing electric, electro-hydraulic, pneumatic and gas-over-oil technologies.

For the upstream mainland wellheads, HART-enabled Rotork CVA modulating electric actuators have been ordered for process valve control, while nearly 1000 Rotork Skilmatic SI and EH range electro-hydraulic actuators have been ordered for control valves, shutdown valves, wellhead skids and metering skids.

The balance is made up of fluid power actuators for pipeline and the LNG plants, majority of which are CP and GP range pneumatic actuators operating butterfly valves on LNG production lines.
