Valve Program Services

Home › Energy

The nuclear industry's "operating experience" has recognized the need for the development and sound implementation of both Motor Operated Valve (MOV) and Air Operated Valve (AOV) Programs. These regulatory enforced programs have been recognized to improve plant availability through the process of validating design basis parameters and enhancement initiatives of maintenance practices.

Altran Solutions' broad range of extensive AOV/MOV Program backgrounds combined with the relationship and knowledge that comes from working with numerous plant AOV/MOV Programs allows the Altran Solutions team to bring the industry's "lessons learned" and trends to your station's AOV and MOV Program.

Altran Solutions maintains a team of in-office and field valve engineers. These engineers are full-time Altran employees and may be called upon to support field personnel to address emergent valve issues as they arise.
