Another nice and informative video from the MIR valves team. Nice to see (and hear) the inspection being made with 3D measurements, allowing not only linear measurements, but a much more comprehensive Metrologic tool. Regarding the solution implemented to test the hyperbaric features, I already used that while in Petrobras, specially for a larger valve that could not fit in the manufacturer’s hyperbaric chamber. This solution is also a reasonable alternative solution for shallow-water applications, where the forged body is already very robust (high stiffness) and practically would not deform due to external hydrostatic; so, testing sealing ports as closures and stem areas are the most prone to eventually fail and MIR presented this well. Thank you for sharing and congrats to MIR team.
