Score Diagnostics & Score (Europe) Ltd Exhibit On-Site at Major Oil & Gas Refinery

Score Diagnostics Limited paired up with our sister company Score (Europe) Limited for an engineering and technology desktop exhibition on-site at a major oil & gas refinery. This was a fantastic opportunity which allowed us to present all the latest innovative technologies, products and services on offer from the Score Group of companies.

Throughout the day we had a steady stream of visitors keen to find out what we had to offer them to support the most efficient and effective process operations. We provided many live product demonstrations of the MIDAS Meter®, which received great feedback from all visitors to our stand. The demonstration kit on show gave everyone a chance to see valve condition monitoring methods, results and benefits for themselves, since many visitors took the opportunity to have a hands-on experience of using the MIDAS Meter®. This highlighted clearly for them just how quick and easy it is to non-invasively detect, quantify and trend a valve leak using this device, which delivers both operational and strategic advantages for process operations optimisation.

Score (Europe) Limited took the opportunity to highlight their broad offerings under the broad Intelligent Valve Management™ banner, including on-site services provision, such as valve engineering and design consultancy, testing, troubleshooting, repairs, shutdown management, bolt torque and tensioning, on-site machining and our unique Valve Response Unit (VRU) services. This was also very well received by the stand visitors, many of whom did not fully appreciate the breadth of valve management / support services that the Score Group can offer.

We are currently following up on all requests made for further product information and site demonstrations and would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who visited our stand and for the hospitality and support extended to us by the event organisers throughout the day.

If you did not get the chance to speak with us at the event but would like to find out more information on our product range; contact us directly today, via e-mail: midas.enquiries@score-group.com or through our contact web forms on our website: midasvalvediagnostics.com

Biomass Energy Plant Debut for MIDAS Meter®

Whilst MIDAS Meter® has an extensive field-proven track record of adding value in the in Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Nuclear and Fossil Fuel Power Generation industries, it had never previously been used on a Biomass Energy Plant.

All that changed however, when it made its debut on a plant in Europe this month. Score Diagnostics Limited’s valve leak detection, quantification and trending device was used to verify the sealing capability / performance of critical process valves, as part of a product demonstration.

A number of valve designs and sizes were tested, some of which were operating at high temperatures. Following each individual valve test, the results were immediately passed on to the plant maintenance engineer and a full summary report for all valves, (including performance graphs and deeper analysis data) was produced immediately after the survey, before leaving the facility.

With the customer suitably impressed with the ease of use, performance of MIDAS Meter® and the immediate reporting of results, the discussion quickly turned to how it could support reliability centred maintenance programmes and specifically assist in moving towards a predictive maintenance approach.

We are looking forward to implementation of the technology on a Risk Based Inspection (RBI) strategy and to adding increasing value for our customers as part of an optimised valve management programme.

Supporting MIDAS Meter® Owners Worldwide

The ever-growing global population of deployed MIDAS Meters® (Score Group plc’s valve leak detection, quantification and trending equipment) has required Score Diagnostics Limited’s training team to be highly active in the delivery of their certified operator training course. The following infographic highlights the trained and certified operator population growth from just this year alone.pic

The increase in demand for MIDAS Meter® training to be delivered to operators has highlighted that the uptake of valve condition and performance monitoring equipment and systems is becoming more widespread than ever. The technology is being adopted at an increasing pace, driven by the fact that people are more aware of the value of asset integrity management as a way of ensuring that their assets are performing their required functions effectively, efficiently and safely. Valve diagnostics is supporting the global trend towards reliability centred maintenance activites.

MIDAS Meter® “Surveys as a Service”

Untitled

Gain all the benefits of Valve Condition and Performance Monitoring, for minimum investment.

It is entirely normal and expected that you have to spend a little when you want to save a lot. A new project where you know that a modest investment can deliver a massive return sounds like it would be easy to get a budget for, however… When CAPEX (Capital Expenditure) budgets are not readily available, it’s easy to assume that all the desired benefits of your new initiative or project are going to be missed out on. Not so. Looking towards funding the project from the OPEX (Operating Expenditure) budget can sometimes still deliver most of the project value.

Score Diagnostics is delighted to announce the launch of the MIDAS Meter® “Surveys as a Service” initiative, for valve condition and performance monitoring and reporting.

Valve surveying / monitoring delivers savings in operating costs, minimisation of operational risks and maximisation of reliability, efficiency and profits. If you cannot afford to buy a MIDAS Meter®, but still want the benefits – just choose the “survey as a service” option.

For more information on this exciting new service, click here to view our new flyer or read our case study where our customer was able to save £340,000 following investment in a MIDAS Meter® survey that cost less than £20k.
