Softek is already an integral part of Severn Unival's successful performance optimisation service, which uses the capabilities of the Profiler system to accurately tune and diagnose the performance of valves in the field.
The collected data enables predictive maintenance to be planned with efficiency and economy by identifying which valves need major overhauls and which simply need in-situ instrument overhaul and calibration.
Severn Unival's General Manager Jonathan Jones is enthusiastic about the new agreement, which, he says: "gives us the opportunity to further expand our comprehensive valve diagnostics services, which are already proving popular with some leading companies in the oil, gas and power generation industries".
"In addition we now have the opportunity to work closely with Softek for customer-led future development".
As well as using Softek in its own valve maintenance programmes, Severn Unival can now sell and support the system in the UK, Norway, Holland, Denmark, Benelux, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Iran and Brunei under the terms of the new licence.
