Houma, Louisiana – Cortec Manifold Systems (CMS), in close collaboration with its Southeast Asia partner Empayar Damai Sdn Bhd (EDSB), was awarded a contract to supply compact manifold valves to be placed in service for the Tanga Barat Cluster Project. CMS recently made delivery on the compact valves, manufactured in its Houma, Louisiana, facility.
The manifold consists of 29 slots with piping and valves manufactured using 316 Stainless Steel material. Each slot consists of multiple 6″ Double Ball Valves, Poppet Diverter Valves, Check Valves, and 2″ Ball and Throttle valves. The gas from these fields contains relatively high levels of CO2, and Petronas Carigali estimates the project will flow 950 MMcfd of gas through the manifold per day. The 55ft. long by 75,000 Kilogram manifold is among the largest and most expensive in Petronas Carigali history.
CMS and EDSB are on the cutting edge of supplying innovative solutions for their customer base. EDSB is centrally located in Southeast Asia and provides regional support for all of CMS’s valve products.
