To many in our industry, a valve is just a valve. It releases cargo tank pressure and ensures fire safety. Nothing more is expected of it. Fulfilling the IMO’s standards is all that matters.
At Bay Valves, we believe that valves are crucial to cargo protection. And just meeting IMO standards is not enough to ensure that your Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) vessels are protected against fire and leaks under different operating conditions.
So, we go beyond the expected, pushing the boundaries for what valve systems can achieve in FPSO protection and simplified operations. Our valves help maintain environmental and economic balance and ensure uncompromised safety and transparency at every level across industries.
Bay Valves valve systems are reliable, cost-effective, and designed to meet the needs of your industry, in both offshore and marine environments. Committed to cargo protection at every stage, our products go beyond certifications and regulations.
At Bay Valves, a valve isn’t just a valve. It’s a symbol of change and a safer future for our industry.

You can always contact our valve experts if you have questions about our products or how they best suit your needs.
The High Velocity Valve is certified as a flame arrester, i.e. a device to prevent the passage of flames as specified in IMO MSC/Circ. 677. A P/V valve is a pressure-vacuum safety valve. It is a safety valve that opens within pre-set values of both pressure and vacuum.
Hammering is known to cause flask-back and explosions on tankers and is a common issue in weight-loaded high-velocity valves. When a valve experiences uncontrolled hammering, it cannot maintain the required exit gas velocity to prevent the passage of flames. This poses a potential safety hazard on FPSO vessels, compromising cargo protection.
All makes and sizes of valves can be tested using just one portable test kit. All it requires is compressed working air and thus no EeX-requirement, which means it can be used on the deck. When the valve is pressurized on a dedicated test bench, it will either jump open or pressure reading will just be stable depending on the specific valve design.
What our customers say
Last year we purchased a number of the hi velocity bay valves (details below) and fitted them on one of our drill ships. I am delighted to say that we have carried out two operations using these bay valves and they performed very well.
