Designing valves for cryogenic service requires a different approach than designing for conventional industrial applications.

When KLINGER Westad supplied its first LNG valves in the 1960s, LNG was still a relatively young industry. Since then, vessel designs have evolved, trade routes have expanded and technologies have advanced. Through it all, one thing has remained constant: the need for reliable operation.

New fuels are emerging. Regulations continue to evolve. Technology is advancing faster than ever. Operators and shipowners face increasing pressure to improve efficiency, reduce emissions and prepare for an uncertain future.
