Discover the gold standard in hydrogen testing with Oliver Valves
When no single standard existed for hydrogen valves, we built one.
Hydrogen presents challenges that conventional oil and gas valve standards were never designed to address alone.
That’s why Oliver Valves developed the Gold Standard for Hydrogen Testing — a comprehensive qualification programme designed to prove true hydrogen readiness across every critical area of valve performance.
From permeability and fugitive emissions to material integrity, temperature extremes and endurance, our Gold Standard brings together a rigorous programme of testing designed specifically around the demands of hydrogen service.
Testing includes:
- Fugitive emissions testing
- 100-hour permeability testing
- Helium seat leakage testing
- Minimum and maximum rated temperature testing
- Seat and gland endurance testing
- Rapid operation
- Valve signature comparisons
- Hydrogen qualification validation
And it’s independently supported by experience with TÜV SÜD’s voluntary hydrogen certification scheme, which Oliver Valves became the first manufacturer in the world to complete for its hydrogen-ready ball valve.
