Cryogenic Ball Valve Selection for LNG: Extended Bonnet, Seat Materials and Testing

Quick Summary: Selecting a cryogenic ball valve for LNG requires more than specifying stainless steel and a low-temperature rating. LNG valve procurement should verify minimum design temperature, low-temperature material toughness, extended bonnet geometry, cryogenic seat materials, cavity pressure relief, installation direction, cryogenic testing and project documentation. For EPC and LNG terminal projects, buyers should confirm […]
