Seals

Petrochemical Applications

Oil drilling is a challenging field because seals must endure extreme conditions. When a seal fails, it can result in significant downtime costs.

In drilling operations, seals are exposed to harsh environments including aggressive hydrocarbon mixtures (sometimes sulfonated), superheated steam, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, corrosion inhibitors, and temperatures ranging from below freezing to over 200°C, all under high pressure.

To handle these conditions, seals need :

  • Chemical resistance
  • Strong physical properties
  • Flexibility across various temperatures
  • Resistance to explosive decompression (ED)

With years of experience in the Oil & Gas industry, we specialize in providing sealing solutions for various types of equipment, such as :

  • Ball Valves
  • Gate Valves
  • Butterfly Valves
  • Regulating Valves
  • Plug Valves
  • Seat Valves
  • Check Valves
  • Metering Valves
  • Control Valves
  • Valve Actuators
  • Blowout Preventers (BOP)
  • Couplings for Flexible Pipes
  • Xmas Trees
  • Drill Drives
  • Marine Cranes

HFPS offers a broad selection of O-Rings, rubber gaskets, and standard PTFE-based seals, with sizes up to 1000 mm (40 inches).
