Sealing components in Oil & Gas systems are exposed to combined mechanical and chemical stress. Typical challenges include:
Rapid Gas Decompression is a critical consideration in many gas-related applications. When pressure is released rapidly, absorbed gas can expand within elastomer structures, causing internal cracking, blistering, and seal failure. These conditions require careful material selection, profile design, testing, and controlled manufacturing processes.
Pulim approaches Oil & Gas sealing through structured evaluation of pressure, media, temperature, motion type, and certification requirements. Material grades including HNBR, FKM, PTFE compounds, engineering plastics, polyurethane systems, and specialized RGD-resistant elastomers are selected according to resistance requirements and performance targets.
Seal configurations such as heavy-duty T-seals, backup ring systems, spring energized seals, machined seals, and custom-designed profiles are applied according to installation and operational constraints. Dual-process manufacturing (injection molding and CNC machining) supports both standardized and non-standard solutions.
Engineering validation is completed prior to production to confirm material suitability, manufacturing feasibility, and long-term performance.
Pulim supplies sealing products commonly used in Oil & Gas equipment, including:
Material options include polyurethane systems, PTFE and filled PTFE compounds, HNBR, FKM, engineering plastics, and specialized RGD-resistant elastomer grades selected according to application requirements.
Pulim applies material testing and production controls aligned with Oil & Gas application requirements. Depending on project scope, testing and certification support may include:
Projects may reference industry standards and customer requirements including NORSOK M-710, API 6A, and NACE-related testing protocols where applicable. Manufacturing is conducted under established quality systems to support traceability and consistency across batches.
Oil & Gas projects often require non-standard dimensions, large-diameter components, rapid prototyping, retrofit solutions, or small-batch production. Pulim supports these requirements through both injection molding and CNC machining capability up to Ø2500 mm.
Injection molding provides consistent, economical production for standard and high-volume components, while CNC machining enables customized geometries, prototype development, and emergency replacement parts without tooling investment.
Integrated machining software and digital production systems help maintain repeatability, process control, and production flexibility for critical applications.
