The rapid growth of LNG & FLNG projects introduces valve procurement and execution complexity that traditional approaches were not designed to handle, and project teams that fail to adapt early risk schedule slips, rework, and startup delays.
Guided wave radar (GWR) transmitters are among the most widely deployed level instruments in upstream oil and gas production. Yet, many installations underperform because the echo curve is never examined after commissioning.
Selecting the right flow meter for upstream or midstream operations often comes down to a balancing act between measurement accuracy and cost. In today’s cost-conscious oil & gas sector, many operators face tough decisions: Is investing in a premium, high-accuracy...
More than 10,000 rare diseases affect over 30 million people in the United States alone, and 95 percent of those diseases have no approved treatment. With more than 1,000 active clinical programs working to change that, the pressure on biopharmaceutical manufacturers to accelerate the pipeline without compromising quality or compliance has never been greater.
Copper is undergoing a quiet but profound redefinition. Long viewed primarily as an industrial commodity, it is now rising to the level of critical infrastructure, essential to the digital, electric, and energy systems shaping the next decade.
We unpack what the NERC CIP-015-01 standard requires, the compliance timelines utilities must plan for, and the practical challenges of deploying monitoring inside operational technology environments.
As explored in his recent interview in Pharmaceutical Processing World, Emerson’s Bruce Greenwald—drawing on decades of experience—explains that life sciences manufacturers are moving beyond isolated systems toward connected plants to achieve operational excellence...
Safety regulations and compliance requirements continue to intensify following high-profile incidents, while nearly a quarter of the natural gas workforce is approaching retirement, taking with them decades of institutional knowledge. Operators need monitoring systems that are both more capable and easier to deploy than ever before.

Poorly specified or undersized valves in critical services can cause unplanned shutdowns, fugitive emissions, and safety incidents, so getting valve selection right at the front end of a project and revisiting it whenever process conditions change are among the highest-leverage actions an operator or engineering contractor can take.
Why this matters now As detailed in their recent article in H2Tech, Emerson’s Martin Johnson and Phani Kanakamedala, recognized industry experts, explain that interest in hydrogen is accelerating—and that keeping H₂ moving from producers to users requires security,...
Valve failures in mining drive unplanned downtime, safety hazards, environmental exposure, and lost production. Abrasive slurries, cavitation, and corrosive acids each attack valves in different ways, yet all lead to the same outcome: shortened service life and rising maintenance costs.
