S u b s e a a n d To p s i d e Va l v e s
Our extensive experience in the oil & gas industry allows us to continue
to design compliant, innovative sealing solutions that fulfill the increasing
performance requirements for engineered valves in the upstream and
downstream sectors.
Our Applications:
Seat Seals, Single and Double Piston Effect
Stem Seals
Body/Bonnet and Body/Closure Static Seals
Seat Inserts

OmniSeal LFE Compliant with

ISO -15848 and Shell SPE 77-312
In response to the critical need for low fugitive emissions from valves,
Saint-Gobain Seals Group developed a range of high-performance stem
sealing systems that protect the environment and adhere to the most
stringent standards of the oil & gas industry.
Our Applications:
Stem seal for quarter-turn and rising stems
Body/Bonnet and Body/Closure Static Seals

Tr a n s f e r S y s t e m s
Since safety and cost are both factors in handling everything from harsh
chemicals to liquefied gasses like LNG and LPG, our sealing solutions for
export/import ground terminals and offshore liquefaction vessels are safe
and reliable while lowering operating costs.
Our Applications:
Swivel Joints
Emergency Release Systems
Quick Connect-Disconnect Couplings
Breakaway Couplings

P roven in the Past

In the 1970s, Saint-Gobain Seals Group introduced OmniSeal spring-energized seals to the oil and gas market in order to solve
reliability and durability problems caused by the severe limitations of elastomeric seals. These spring-energized seals, which had
already proven themselves extensively in the aerospace industry, addressed critical issues including aggressive media, sour gas
environment, resistance to rapid gas decompression and extreme operating conditions.
This additional experience inspired the Saint-Gobain Seals Group to design a series of innovative sealing solutions that
consistently and reliably met the ever-increasing requirements of high-performance equipment manufacturers.

Production
To meet the evolving requirements created by the environmental
complexities of offshore oilfields, turret swivel stack systems are increasing
in size and complexity.
Consequently, as the conditions become more stringent, larger diameter
sealing systems that combine OmniSeal spring-energized seals with backup rings are in great demand.
At Saint-Gobain Seals Group, we developed a flexible and highly scalable
technique to manufacture large diameter sealing systems, incorporating
rings in Meldin HT 5000 series (PEEK based materials) that use a patentpending, bending/welding/sintering process without any limitations in
diameters.

Subsea Equipment
To meet and exceed customer demand for high-performance subsea
equipment sealing solutions, Saint-Gobain Seals Group drew from the best
of several decades of R&D investments as well as its broad experience
addressing extreme pressure and temperature issues.
Our Applications:
Engineered Valves and Manifolds
HP Hydraulic Couplings
Multiphase Flowmeters

Ex ploration and P roduc tion Equipment

The oil and gas industry is developing technology to squeeze out the barrels
of oil left in fields after production. In Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR), steam,
gas or chemicals are injected into the reservoir to thin the remaining oil
or push it out of the reservoir. We understand that having a sustainable
sealing solution is vital.
Our Applications:
API6A Surface Wellheads
API17D Subsea Wellheads
Downhole Tools
Drilling Tools
