In the oil and gas industry, ensuring safety and operational efficiency is crucial. Among the many risks that operators face, overpressure is one of the most critical. Overpressure occurs when the pressure in a vessel, pipeline, or system exceeds the designed or safe limits. This can lead to severe consequences.

VERSA is headed to Valve World Americas 2023, June 7 thru June 8, 2023 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. Stop by Booth 538, meet the VERSA team, and learn about our ongoing focus on “Real World Reliability.” 

REAL WORLD CHALLENGES

An unmanned natural gas compressor station in a remote location in West Virginia required solenoid valves with a manual reset option on their Emergency Shutdown (ESD) system. When normal wear and tear caused solenoid failures, it would take hours for a technician to reach the site, troubleshoot, and perform the necessary routine maintenance. These unplanned shutdowns caused significant downtime and lost revenue for the facility.

On Friday, March 10, the New Jersey Business & Industry Association and New Jersey Business Magazine honored VERSA with the 3rd Annual NJBIA/NJBM Manufacturing Award.

Versa Products Company first introduced our V-series valve over 70 years ago. This robust, fully ported, and modularly designed valve was a truly innovative product for the time. It handled dirty air and provided distribution partners with a unique method to quickly build and supply the right valve. Most importantly, it offered Real World Reliability. The V-series was, and remains, the go-to-choice for high-reliability applications.

To Versa, the health and safety of our employees is paramount. Beginning in mid- March of 2020, we implemented major health and safety measures designed to reduce the possibility of COVID-19 spread within our facility and to take care of our most important asset, our people. We are proud to announce that our efforts were officially recognized by the State of NJ and we were awarded the New Jersey Healthy Business Certificate.  We are thrilled to receive this award and to know that we are doing all the right things to take care of our staff.

To ensure you have instant access to the information you need to evaluate Versa valves for new designs, we’ve launched interactive 3D CAD download capabilities for V-Series valves. This online tool is integrated into our recently released VersaSelect product selector to provide everything you need to vet, compare, and spec in the right valve and accessories for your next design.
