SUCCESSFUL FIELD TESTING OF KINITICS KVA38 ACTUATORS: DEMONSTRATING EFFECTIVENESS
December 5, 2024
The KVA38 was installed at a remote natural gas wellsite near Edson, Alberta, owned by Tourmaline Oil Corp., as part of a field demonstration coordinated through the NGIF Emissions Testing Centre Program and was funded in part by Prairies Economic Development Canada. Three KVA38 actuators were deployed to control key valves in a multi-phase separator system over a period of four months, exceeding the initial three-month test period. During this time, the actuators recorded over 10,000 cycles and near-continuous operations without any unintentional shutdowns, demonstrating their reliability in the field. The KVA38 is a spring-loaded electric valve actuator designed for the energy sector.
