Critical ESDs
Process
An emergency shut down valve (also referred to as ESV, ESD, or ESDV) is an actuated valve designed to stop the flow of hazardous fluids or gases upon the detection of a dangerous event. This provides protection to people, equipment or the environment. ESD valves are required by law on any equipment placed on an offshore drilling rig to prevent catastrophic events.
