because its interesting. keep em coming.

looks like they are requesting to extend bid validity til august next year..initially it was march. process equipt btw.

i'm guessing valves supplied didnt meet project specs/scope of work or performance as required. I believe they had some exotic materials on that platform. Due to valves are long lead item and in order to meet dateline for project delivery, they had to accept them as is with condition and cost impact. Hence replacements need to be done in the near future. Its either the platform will be underutilised or the valves couldnt meet intended design life time. All of that future cost incurred are charged back to MMHE.

I'm in no way an expert but they must be kind of stupid if they intentionally used imitation valves. its like first line of safety protection and a guarantee to the process flow performance isnt it? i've encountered however valves which were having a brand name that is similar to a well known brand. We only realize this model doesnt exist in their catalogue when we inquired for spare parts..

Oh my
