New Pressure Relief Valve
Offers Durability, Flexibility
HOUSTON-Gilmore says its new
Agiliti™ relief valve resists high pressures
and abrasion.
Pressure changes do not cause problems
with the valve's quick and automatic mechanical
reset capability, Gilmore adds.
According to the company, the valve also
includes manually adjustable relief points
between 8,000 and 15,000 psi, as well as
customization for lower pressure settings.
The Agiliti meets API 6A standards,
making it a solution in both on- and offshore
markets, Gilmore assures. The company
says the valve can accommodate
flow rates as high as 22.5 barrels a minute
and has a severe flow control rating.
" The Gilmore Agiliti™ relief valve is
a solid piece of engineering that survives
harsh applications and proves financially
viable down the road with less repair and
downtime, " says Jean-Louis Doguet, vice
president of Gilmore's unconventional
solutions division. " We are seeing a threesix-month
service life without the need
for repair. "

core artificial lift capabilities to
include well site surveillance and chemical
optimization.
Bridger Photonics Honored For Leak Detection Product
BOZEMAN, MT.-Bridger Photonics
Inc. has received the 2022 Distribution
Technology of the Year Award
from the ONE Future Coalition. The
inaugural awards recognize companies
that have developed an innovative technology
or solution for reducing natural
gas companies' methane emissions,
Bridger describes.
The ONE Future Coalition consists
of more than 50 natural gas companies
united with the goal of reducing methane
emissions intensity across the natural
gas value chain to 1% or less by 2025,
Bridger adds. Members include EQT,
Sempra Energy, Hess and ONEOK.
Bridger says its aerial Gas Mapping
LiDAR technology is deployed by production,
transmission and distribution
companies to detect, locate and quantify
methane emissions. According to the
company, the technology can scan up
to hundreds of sites a day to provide
actionable insights into the location and
size of emissions that help companies
prioritize leak repair, accurately
perform methane emissions
accounting and achieve
meaningful emission reductions.

84 THE AMERICAN OIL & GAS REPORTER
Continuing to build on autonomous
control features previously introduced for
rod lift and gas lift, the XSPOC software
now offers autonomous control for chemical
injection, ChampionX outlines. This new
capability allows users to proportionally
control chemical injection rates based on
standard parameters already being tracked
in the software, such as production rates,
temperature, load and shutdown conditions,
the company describes. Users can set up
customized alarms, such as alerting personnel
that tanks are running low, as well
as view historical trend data.
The new version of XSPOC also offers
a SnapShot advanced classification photo
gallery, which ChampionX introduces as
an economical solution for remote visual
surveillance. " Whether the goal is helping
meet regulatory requirements, alleviate
security concerns or mitigate HSE risks,
our customers want a practical way to
keep eyes on their assets, " explains Neha
Sahdev, ChampionX Theta production
optimization vice president. " This new
benefit provides the flexibility to use multiple
types of cameras and doesn't restrict
how many photos they can take. "
According to the company, the photo
gallery provides a holistic view to review,
flag and comment on photos, enabling
quick and efficient surveillance checks
that do not require dispatching personnel
to the field.
