Oil & Gas

As existing supplies of Oil and Gas are depleted, these industries are being forced to explore ever more severe environments for future supplies.

To help in this exploration, Oil and Gas companies are utilising the excellent characteristics of sialons and silicon nitride, such as their corrosion and erosion resistance, light weight and heat tolerance, to replace traditional metal components.

• Hydrocyclones

  

  Oil companies have used Syalon 101 vortex hydrocyclones for removing sand from offshore oil, utilising its excellent erosion resistance.

• Metering Valves

  

  With it's outstanding wear resistance, Syalon 050 metering valves have outperformed inconel and silicon carbide in a cyclic sub-sea application.

Our technical team will discuss any application where you feel you may benefit from using Syalon. Please contact us with your enquiry. Alternatively download our Oil & Gas Applications PDF.
