Working closely with an experienced stocking manufacturers’ representative provides information, products and solutions to many problems your customer’s in the Texas oil fields are experiencing. Often oil companies are using older technology and making do with products that are not providing the long life cycles, dependability and cost efficiency they are looking for.
In working with a top distributor with expertise and experience in the oil field, as well as a direct working relationship with the part and component manufacturers, solutions may be sitting in inventory, which allows you to work more closely with your customers for increased sales.
One of the older technologies that is still seen as a top solution in many oil field applications is the use of grooved piping products. From pipe through to fittings, this system allows for the quick, efficient joining of pipe without the need for welding or other forms of mechanical bonding.
Easy Installation
The use of grooved piping products makes it easy for workers to install oil field piping. The pipes are grooved at each end and joined using a housing, gasket and nut and bolt configuration that slips over the ends and tightens quickly and effectively.
Flexible Joints
The grooved pipe joints can be designed to be rigid, or they can be flexible. For many applications the flexible joints allow for movement of either side of the pipe on the joint, which eliminates stress and pressure at the joint. For use where soil movement is a concern, or for any type of situation where pipe movement needs to occur, this is an important consideration.
Easy Removal
Another advantage of using grooved piping products in Texas oil field work is the ability to quickly disconnect pipes and replaced damaged pipe segments. It also means easy reconfiguration of piping systems or breakdown of systems if required.
