Online valve maintenance treats installed valves while live, pressurised pipelines stay in service. Trained specialists inject cleaner, lubricant or sealant through buttonhead fittings, with no planned shutdown.
Online valve service
Online valve maintenance, without the shutdown
We restore hard-to-operate, passing and leaking valves while pressurised pipelines remain in service.
- Hard to operate
- Passing across seats
- Leaking at stems or bodies
Valve problems
Three warning signs need a clear plan
Early checks help teams choose the right treatment before valve performance gets worse.
Hard to operate
Dried residues and poor lubrication can make installed valves difficult to cycle safely.
Read operating guidancePassing (seat leakage)
Damaged sealing surfaces can let product cross a valve meant to isolate.
Read passing valve guidanceLeaking
Stem or body leaks can release process media and increase fugitive emissions.

Our process
A clear path from valve survey to routine maintenance
We combine product supply, injection equipment and field support in one programme.
-
Survey the need
Engineers check valve condition, service history and operating needs before planning work.
-
Recommend treatment
Our technical team selects cleaners, lubricants, sealants and equipment for the task.
-
Implement safely
Specialists support controlled product injection while live, pressurised pipelines remain in service.
-
Track progress
We review results and set a maintenance routine to keep valves working.
Keep critical valves working while the pipeline stays productive.
Preventative treatment can restore worn valves before early replacement becomes the only option. Much valve maintenance can proceed while equipment remains installed and under pressure, cutting planned shutdowns. A Chemical Engineering magazine study traced 60% of refinery fugitive emissions to leaking valves.

Common questions
Online valve maintenance questions
These answers explain the service before a detailed valve survey begins.
What is online valve maintenance?
Online valve maintenance restores operation and sealing in a live, pressurised pipeline. Specialists inject the right cleaner, lubricant or sealant through fitted access points, with no shutdown.
Can a passing valve be fixed without removal?
A passing valve can often be treated in place. This depends on its condition and service history. Our engineers first check the valve, then recommend a cleaner, lubricant, sealant or field service.
Does online valve maintenance work under pressure?
Yes. Trained specialists inject cleaner, lubricant or sealant through buttonhead fittings while the pipeline stays pressurised. Site controls and valve condition set the maintenance plan.
