BuTech valves are safe to use in
offshore applications on a variety

One of the world’s leading ship
classification societies, ABS is com-

and excellence, leading pioneering
efforts to maximize efficiency and
environmental sustainability in off-
shore fleet operations. Shipbuilders
choose ABS classification services
for new builds in order to comply
with the latest standards and inter-
national codes and to increase oper-
ational efficiencies and meet energy
efficiency standards measured and
mandated by the IMO.
BuTech medium pressure valves
are used in a multitude of offshore
vessels and applications, from
topside FPSO’s to subsea templates,
operating under pressures as high as
20,000 psi (1380 bar) and extreme
temperature conditions, often with
erosive or corrosive solids, liquids
or gases. The certification gives

customers in the shipbuilding and
offshore industry that BuTech valves
