Global distribution agreement with Axess group
Axess will deliver Pressure Safety Valve (PSV) testing using Inline X’s innovative technology on onshore and offshore oil and gas installations.
Inline X will enable Axess to test and calibrate PSVs in-situ accurately. PSVs have historically been removed and tested in a workshop, and in-situ testing reduces the risks of damaging the PSVs during the process of dismounting, transportation, and re-mounting. HSE risks related to handling of sometimes heavy and overhead PSVs are also eliminated.
“The technology from Inline X fits perfect into Axess’ strategy and the value propositions we offer to our clients. We stay committed to helping our clients increase uptime while reducing emissions and the cost of ownership. The technology from Inline X does just that. At the same time, it enables us to provide our clients with optimized valve integrity and maintenance programs based on data sets never seen before in this industry, Jostein Tverdal, Vice President of Americas at Axess Group, and continues:
"We will use our global footprint to bring this technology into the world. We are very impressed with the innovative technology Inline X has developed, and we are excited to present this technology to our global clients.”
Inline X has automated test procedures that improve integrity and repeatability. In addition, the solution features a cloud-based application that allow users to efficiently evaluate test results, monitor PSV performance, and utilize the data to optimize PSV selection and PSV maintenance.
Overall, the technology will increase valve reliability, test integrity, ensure compliance, and improve health, safety, and environment (HSE) performance while reducing cost and shutdowns.
Jan Gregor Høydahl Sørli, Chief Executive Officer of Inline X, is also pleased:
“We are delighted to have signed this agreement with Axess, a world-class integrity and engineering services provider. Inline X is proud to be associated with a company that delivers the full range of technology differentiated integrity solutions. Our vision and values are aligned well with Axess’. We are confident that this collaboration will be a success for Axess, Inline X, and our clients,” he says.
