Valves for Offshore & Subsea Applications — Belo Horizonte
Belo Horizonte is the capital of Minas Gerais — Brazil's most mineral-rich state — and serves as procurement hub for Vale (world's largest iron ore producer, 340 Mt/yr from Carajás complex) and Brazil's integrated steel industry; Vale's Carajás slurry and ore handling pipelines require AWWA C520 and API 6D knife gate valves and abrasion-resistant pinch valves for ore concentrate slurry; Usiminas Ipatinga steel plant (4.5 Mt/yr) requires high-temperature A217 WC9 gate valves for blast furnace and coke oven gas systems; CBMM's Araxá niobium mine (80% of global niobium supply) requires SS 316L diaphragm valves for hydromet circuits and knife gate valves for slurry tailings; Samarco's 400 km iron ore slurry pipeline requires API 6D full-bore ball valves and API 526 pressure-relief valves; Vajra Industrial Solutions exports with ABNT-compliant material certificates and Portuguese-language documentation to Belo Horizonte–based EPC firms.
NORSOK M-630, API 17D, and DNV-certified Duplex/Super Duplex and Inconel valves for topside process, subsea wellhead, FPSO, and offshore platform applications.
