Midstream Transportation

Hero Summary

With Flowserve, you always know what’s in the pipeline: quality, performance and reliability.

Flowserve offers innovative and proven solutions for every pipeline application. And while they may look the same, we know that every pipeline application is different, from natural gas to heavy oil applications. Flowserve experts have the design expertise and equipment you need to create and maintain a reliable infrastructure for your specific application.

Flowserve is your mainline to a high-performing pipeline

We understand the challenges to pipeline reliability:

Remote and often inhospitable locations
Carrying material that includes corrosive elements
Harsh conditions resulting from temperature variations to elevation challenges and many other variables
Batch-type transport of refined products at varying pressures

For that, and more, you need Flowserve. We’ve earned a pre-eminent position in the global pipeline pumping industry through advanced design, engineered solutions, equipment re-rates and customer service excellence.

Look to us for upgrades and re-rates to existing equipment

Pipelines are also subject to changing conditions. For that, you need a supplier who can modify equipment to meet those changes when they occur. Flowserve engineers have worked with customers for decades to help them upgrade and improve the efficiency and performance of their equipment over time.

Addressing your concerns about the environment

Pipelines need to do more than simply convey material. They also need to meet environmental standards no matter how stringent. Leaks, spills and emissions simply will not do. Fortunately, Flowserve is exceptional at preventing these.
