World-leading supplier of critical flow control solutions, IMI Critical Engineering, has celebrated the opening of its new IMI CCI service centre in Aberdeen in the UK.

The new facility boasts capabilities such as machining, repair, testing and field service support as well as demonstration units and boardroom presentation areas for customers.

The centre was officially opened in the presence of key customers and partners from the industry operator and EPC community, including Conoco Phillips and BP.

Attendees had the opportunity to see for themselves the latest choke valve - which combines proven DRAG® velocity control technology with the best grades of tungsten carbide and positioner technology, which, combining high capacity and high precision, provide feedback to controllers in response to the required and actual movement of valve stems. Visitors also attended presentations from two of the companies’ Valve Doctors®, Ronald Simon, and IMI STI’s Engineering Director Flavio Tondolo.

The establishment of this base follows a strategy of increased visibility and growth planned for the Aberdeen area and reflects IMI Critical Engineering’s continued commitment to supporting the oil & gas and power industries in and around the North East of Scotland.

Ronald Simon said: ‘In the course of the grand opening of our new service centre in the European Oil Capital, Aberdeen, I had the pleasure to present our latest innovations and success stories for the most challenging applications and fields to our valued clients. One of the highlights during the open day was the live demonstration of our QuickTrak/FasTrak advanced control system which has been invented by our Valve Doctors® for applications with high end dynamic performance requirements, such as antisurge control valves for compressor systems.’

Damon Dunn, Senior Manager Field Service/Repair for IMI CCI EMEA, added: ‘IMI CCI’s goal is to be more available locally to our customers and to increase the service capabilities for our installed base of valves.’

IMI Critical Engineering, part of IMI plc, is a world-leading provider of critical flow control solutions that enable vital energy and process industries to operate safely, cleanly, reliably and more efficiently while improving its commitment to provide excellent customer service.
