Supply of Industrial Gases

We have rate contract with oil industry for supply of industrial gases like, Oxygen, Acetylene, Nitrogen and Argon. We also supply Helium and propane with adequate notice.

We are not the stockists for these gases. However, we maintain certain gases with us for our inhouse use for fabrication. Further, , as we have various service contracts with the oil and gas industry, we provide these gases for their in house use. These gases are supplied with adequate advance notice, as we arrange these gases from the stockists.

 

Supply of Helium and industrial gases

The gases are generally supplied in 47 ltr capacity cylinders and are 99.5 to 99.9 % purity and are supplied at 140+10 bar.

These cylinders are transported in upright condition in the vehicle and it is ensured that Oxygen cylinders and DA cylinders are not transported  together. The supplies  conform to IS :7825 or any other specification as specified in Gas Cylinder Rules,2004 and having certification / approval of Chief Controller of Explosives (CCOE) as applicable for storage & transportation of gases according to Gas cylinder rules 2016.

The cylinders we supply have proper colour code,  protection valve gaurds , valve protection caps and valve protection rings  as per the requirement of Oil and Gas sector regulations.

We have a stock of our own cylinders for Oxygen which are hydro-tested . As far as possible, we obtain tested cylinders and for which the certificate is valid.

Supply of Helium and Propane Gases

On the request of our cleints  we arrange for Helium and Propane gases if adequate notice is given. We maintain the  following requirements concerning the refilling and hydrotest of Helium Cylinders

  1. The Helium cylinders shall be refilled only if the validity of the hydro test of the cylinder is live. The validity of the hydrotest is generally 5 years
  2. The over all cylinder life shall not be more than 20 years
  3. In case Hydrotest is required, manufacturers certificate alongwith the batch number is must for hydrotest

In case the cylinder is imported and requires hydro test, PESO certificate indicating the batch number, date of manufacture is required

The refilling of the helium cylinders is done in  50 Ltr bottle and the specifications of the Helium gas is

“Gas, mixture type: helium‐nitrogen, concentration: 99.999 %, container type: cylinder, container capacity: 50 l wc; fft:pure helium: 99.999 %, container
material: carbon steel, volume:9 m3
refilling pressure:140‐150kg/cm2 “
