Valves for LNG & Cryogenic Service — Bogotá

Yes. Vajra Industrial Solutions supplies Cryogenic Ball Valve (Extended Bonnet), Cryogenic Gate Valve (Extended Bonnet), Cryogenic Globe Valve (Extended Bonnet), Cryogenic Check Valve for lng & cryogenic service applications in Bogotá, Cundinamarca. Bogotá is the headquarters of Ecopetrol — Colombia's national oil company with over 100,000 bopd production — whose procurement teams source API 6D and ASME B16.34 valves through the capital for pipelines running to Barrancabermeja and Cartagena refineries; the Empresa de Acueducto y Alcantarillado de Bogotá (EAAB) operates Latin America's highest-altitude major water system (2,600 m elevation), requiring double-flanged butterfly valves and resilient-seated gate valves rated for high-altitude service conditions. We offer export documentation and delivery to Bogotá in 7–14 business days with full documentation and third-party inspection.

For lng & cryogenic service in Bogotá, the applicable standards are: BS 6364 (Cryogenic valves), ASME B16.34 Annex F, API 6D, EN 13942, ASTM A350 LF2 / LF3, ASTM A182 F316L, MSS SP-134. All valves are supplied with full documentation including material test reports (EN 10204 3.1/3.2), pressure test certificates, and dimensional inspection reports. Third-party inspection (TPI) by EIL, Bureau Veritas, Lloyd's Register, or the client's nominated inspector can be arranged.

Standard stock sizes: export documentation and delivery to Bogotá in 7–14 business days. Custom sizes and special materials (Duplex, Hastelloy, P91): 4–8 weeks manufacturing lead time.

An extended bonnet (also called a top-entry or long-bonnet valve) has an elongated bonnet section that moves the stem packing away from the extremely cold process fluid. This prevents the packing material from being exposed to cryogenic temperature (where it would lose elasticity and leak), and prevents atmospheric moisture from freezing around the packing gland. The extension length is calculated based on the process temperature and the acceptable minimum packing temperature.

For LNG (−162°C) and liquid nitrogen (−196°C): ASTM A351 CF8M or CF3M (cast SS 316/316L) and ASTM A182 F316L (forged). For liquid CO₂ and −46°C service: ASTM A350 LF2 (forged low-temperature carbon steel), Charpy impact tested at −46°C. Standard A216 WCB carbon steel must never be used in cryogenic service below −29°C.
