Nuclear Power Generation Customers Extend Their MIDAS Meter® Use

We were delighted to re-engage with some of our existing USA Nuclear Market owners and deliver a bespoke training course on MIDAS Meter® use and value maximization. Whilst many of our nuclear market customers have been using our technology for simple through-valve leak detection, there is now a real appetite to extract even more value, through leak rate quantification and periodic risk based inspections (RBI), to support leak rate trending over time and the operational advantages that this delivers. Part of this training session focused on consulting on real-life, ongoing valve leakage challenges, currently being experienced by the operators.

With the travel restrictions in place at present, this course was delivered online. A total of 13 delegates from 3 nuclear power plants attended the training and the feedback was excellent. A follow-up practical session – at the customer’s facility – is being lined-up for later in the year to ensure all operators are fully up to speed in the application of the technology and value extraction.

MIDAS® Valve Diagnostics : New Case Study Videos

Score Diagnostics have recently developed a new series of video case studies, to help both our customers and team members alike, gain an insight into some of the key benefits of using the MIDAS Meter® valve condition monitoring device (such as troubleshooting problem valves, non-invasive valve testing inline, avoiding costly alternative valve testing techniques such as pressure build-up tests, pre-shutdown / turnaround planning, flare line loss and emissions reduction, backlog maintenance prioritisation and recovery, maintenance cost reduction, environmental protection, efficiency maximisation, etc).

We encourage you to view these consistently formatted short explanatory videos. We hope you find them to be of interest and value to you and your local customers, whom we recommend you share these resources with, as appropriate.

This latest series of case study videos add to an already extensive range of resources for MIDAS® Valve Diagnostics products and services which are readily available on our YouTube Channel, as well as the media sections on the MIDAS® Valve Diagnostics website. Don’t forget to subscribe / follow, to receive our latest updates as they are released.

Should you have any questions on reviewing these resources, or if you would like further information or a quotation for any of our valve condition monitoring equipment or services, please contact us immediately, by email, at; midas.enquiries@score-group.com  We look forwardPicture1 to hearing from you.

New Score Diagnostics Limited Partner – BAREP Clemessy Services (France)

Score Diagnostics Limited have extended their global Partnering program reach, by teaming up with BAREP Clemessy Services, to better support their existing and potential new customers in the French Process Industries Market.

BAREP have already been promoting the MIDAS Meter® in their local market and following key personnel training, they have been out on their customer’s sites completing their initial round of valve surveys with their first owned kit. The results from these surveys have been receiving excellent feedback from customers as they are helping to reduce operating costs by troubleshooting problem valves and correctly focusing maintenance activities and investment on addressing the bad actors.

Valve condition monitoring (for through-seat leak detection, quantification and trending over time) is a service which BAREP intend to invest in growing significantly throughout the remainder of 2020, and beyond. We, of course, wish them every success in these pursuits.

If you are operating in France and would like a local demonstration of how the MIDAS Meter® can help deliver valve population performance improvements and increased process uptime and efficiency, please contact us by email at midas.enquiries@score-group.com and we will put you directly in touch with the correct personnel to deliver that.

Partnership Agreement Extension Signed – JSC Energomash (Russia)

Score Diagnostics Limited have extended their Partnering relationship in the Russian market with Veliky Novgorod based company JSC Energomash (Part of the NBM Group), to continue to support their existing and potential new customers in the Russian Process Industries Market.

This is the second extension to the Partnership and both parties are looking forward to continuing to develop this trading relationship, which has seen both organizations investing in the local approvals and certification of the MIDAS Meter® to Russian compliance requirements.

Following their recent MIDAS Meter® promotional efforts, JSC Energomash have secured a new contract with a local refinery, which is expected to be delivered in October 2020. Training of customers’ personnel will follow, however, the first part of this may have to be delivered online as a result of the Pandemic and associated travel restrictions.

The refinery team are looking forward to optimizing their valve maintenance, as guided by the condition monitoring results provided by MIDAS Meter® surveys (in line valve testing for through-seat leak detection, quantification and trending over time).

If you are operating in Russia and would like a local demonstration of how the MIDAS Meter® can help deliver valve population performance improvements and increased process uptime and efficiency, please contact us by email at midas.enquiries@score-group.com and we will put you directly in touch with the correct personnel to deliver that.

4C Conference 2020

We received a great flow of traffic to our stand at the 4C Environmental Conference in Austin this year again. Philip and Dave were delighted at the turn out and thoroughly enjoyed catching up with old and new customers alike, discussing how we can help find and address problem valves and providing live demonstrations of our Valve Condition Monitoring Equipment and Systems.

If you didn’t get the chance to speak to Philip or Dave at the event, or if you would just like to know more about the Equipment & Systems we have and what solutions they could offer you,  head over to the Contact Us section on our webpage now and we will get back in touch.4C 2020 -Grouped

Successful MIDAS Meter® Valve Survey Demonstration in Germany

We recently carried out a MIDAS Meter® Demonstration in a process plant in Germany, which delivered another great result.

A Ball valve was set up in the customer’s research and development flowloop and tested at 8 Barg differential pressure. Unknown to our demonstrator, there was also a flow meter installed in the flowloop, which had been integrated to verify the results reported by the MIDAS Meter®.

It was an expected, but nonetheless satisfying, result for both Score Diagnostics Limited and our potential new customer, when the leak rate reported by the MIDAS Meter was almost identical to that measured by the calibrated flow meter.

We look forward to working closely with this new customer moving forward, on their implementation of our MIDAS Meter® technology within their valve management programme.Picture 1

MIDAS Meter® for Food Processing Industry

Our MIDAS Meter® valve leak detection, quantification and trending tool is best known for the major benefits it delivers to our existing customers in industries such as Oil & Gas Production, Petrochemicals Processing, Nuclear and Fossil Fuels Energy Production, Utility Companies and the Marine industry.

We are however delighted to have completed some successful trials for a potential new customer in the food processing industry – an area where we have not previously been focused.

We do understand of course that leaking isolation valves are just as much (if not more) of a problem in food and drinks manufacturing and processing operations. So, if you are in that market sector and have leaking valves that are causing production disruption, process downtime or losses, please contact us now, to find out more about how we can help you reduce or completely remove your valve performance problems. Picture 1

More Happy Customers on our MIDAS Meter® Certified Training Course in East Malaysia

A Rather “Chilled” MIDAS Meter® Certified Training Course

One of our most remote existing customers invited us to train a team of six new survey technicians on our MIDAS Meter® Certified Training Course at their site in Central Asia.

The three day training course included on-site supervised surveying in temperatures down to -12 Degrees Centigrade, but as you can see from the photo, the low temperatures on site did nothing to dampen the delegates’ enthusiasm, as they rated the equipment and the training 100% “Excellent”.Chilled MM Training - Grouped
