Oil & Gas Industry
Located in Aberdeen, ACI Ltd is at the heart of the European Oil and Gas Industry. Our extensive range of coatings protect a wide variety of oil and gas components from erosion, corrosion and wear. Some typical applications are displayed below, for further information about our capabilities, please contact us.
Valve Gates/Seats - Thermal sprays can be used to refurbish gates to their original specification using HVOF coatings. We also coat newly manufactured gates to increase their wear resistance. Seat faces are resprayed to ensure a quality sealing face.
Mandrels - Repair damaged mandrels or protect newly manufactured parts. Our spraying booths have the capacity to spray mandrels up to 4m long.
Ball Valves - HVOF coatings on external ball valve surfaces protect the valve from wear and corrosion. Used ball valves can be returned to their manufactured specification removing the need to purchase new parts.
Rock Bits - applying HVOF thermal spray coatings to rock bits prolongs the life of drilling tools with the addition of hard coatings, such as Tungsten Carbides.
Valve Bodies - HVOF coatings are sprayed onto sealing surfaces and valve bodies to prolong and enhance the life of these critical parts.
