What are the Types of Check Valves Used in the Gas Industry?

Posted by DFT Valves on March 20, 2025 1:27 pm

Check valves are used in pipelines, hoses, and tubing to prevent backflow of liquids and gases. In the gas industry, this helps protect equipment from damage, reduce excessive vibration, and maintain steady production. A major use for check valves is normalizing the flow of gas during reciprocating compressor discharge in long-distance pipelines. Other natural gas… Read More

Check Valves for Oil & Gas Wells and Produced Water

Check Valves for Oil & Gas Wells and Produced Water

Posted by DFT Valves on February 28, 2025 8:41 pm

With close to 1 million producing oil and natural gas wells in the United States, the industry generates approximately 60 million barrels of produced water daily. This water originates from subsurface reservoirs during the extraction process, where it mixes with oil and gas and emerges at the surface. It can also include water injected into… Read More
