iValve

What iValve does

iValve Systems, LLC is a privately held Texas-based engineering and manufacturing company that designs and supplies compact, high-pressure ball, check, diverter, low-pressure, and subsea valves together with custom manifold systems for the upstream Oil & Gas industry. Founded in 2015 by Ahmet Duman — a former Baker Hughes/GE Oil & Gas Technology Leader who developed Piper Valve Systems' compact valve product line — the company is differentiated by a miniaturization-first design philosophy: ball valves are engineered to be 40% shorter than conventional ANSI valves, and diverter valves to be roughly half the size and weight of API 6D Trunnion units, with a floating-ball architecture that reduces parts count and shortens maintenance cycles. The offering is anchored by five founder-held patents with several pending applications, and is targeted at enterprise buyers facing space and weight constraints on offshore platforms, drilling rigs, and subsea infrastructure.

The product portfolio spans Ball Valves, Check Valves, Diverter Valves, Low Pressure Ball Valves, and Subsea Valves, complemented by a services stack covering Valve Repair, Re-certification, Engineering Services, Technology Development, Systems Engineering & Integration, and Piping Systems Design. Customers are enterprise Oil & Gas operators (offshore and onshore), drilling contractors, and subsea/deepwater operators using the products in production manifolds, emergency shutdown, injection heads, choke & kill manifolds, managed pressure drilling, and subsea wellhead and BOP control applications.

The business operates a sales-led, consultative B2B model: pricing is quote-based, multi-year in billing cadence, and not publicly disclosed; demand is generated through the company website (which hosts downloadable dimension PDFs), email inquiries to [email protected], and direct phone sales led by VP of Business Development Brooks Graul. The firm is privately held with no disclosed institutional funding, no parent company, and an operating headcount of 1-10 employees headquartered at 331 Corporate Woods Dr Ste. B5, Magnolia, Texas.

Core offering

iValve Systems designs, manufactures, and sells compact high-pressure ball valves, check valves, diverter valves, subsea valves, and low pressure ball valves, along with custom manifold systems for Oil & Gas applications. The company also provides valve repair, re-certification, engineering, technology development, systems engineering and integration, and piping systems design services to support its products.

Product overview

iValve Systems offers a portfolio of compact, high-pressure valve products and manifolds for the Oil & Gas industry. The core product line consists of Ball Valves, Check Valves, Diverter Valves, Low Pressure Ball Valves, and Subsea Valves—all designed with a shared emphasis on compact size and weight reduction compared to conventional alternatives. These valve products serve applications across offshore topside production, onshore operations, subsea environments, well stimulation, and drilling operations. The product portfolio is complemented by engineering and service offerings including Valve Repair, Re-certification, Engineering Services, Technology Development, Systems Engineering & Integration, and Piping Systems Design. The valves are available with downloadable dimension specification PDFs, and the company provides downloadable dimension printables for ordering purposes.

Functional benefit

Products and services

• Ball Valves Compact, high-pressure ball valves designed for Oil & Gas applications, providing 40% less length than conventional ANSI valves and a more efficient flow path that reduces friction and flow loss.
• Check Valves Compact check valves providing positive backflow protection for the entire system; smaller-size check valves can be bolted directly to ball valves to further reduce overall length and weight.
• Diverter Valves Compact diverter valves approximately 50% the size and weight of API 6D Trunnion Diverter Valves, with fewer parts enabling less expensive replacements and a floating ball design that allows quick, efficient maintenance.
• Subsea Valves Compact subsea valves engineered to withstand the hostile conditions and extreme pressure found in subsea environments, used in subsea wellheads, riser booster line valves, dual gradient drilling systems, subsea pig launchers & receivers, and subsea BOP control panels.
• Low Pressure Ball Valves Ball valves designed for low pressure applications, maintaining the compact design principles of the core product line with downloadable dimension specifications.
• Engineering Services System-level engineering collaboration to solve technical problems, reduce cost, improve reliability, and increase productivity for Oil & Gas projects.
• Valve Repair and Re-certification Services Valve repair and re-certification services to restore valve functionality and ensure valves meet required industry standards and specifications.
• Technology Development Services Technology development services bringing experience and technical expertise with out-of-the-box thinking to create innovative Oil & Gas solutions.
• Systems Engineering & Integration Services Systems engineering and integration services that deliver comprehensive solutions combining iValve products with client systems.
• Piping Systems Design Services Piping systems design services offered as part of iValve's comprehensive engineering portfolio for Oil & Gas projects.

Direct peers

• Cameron (SLB): Cameron, now part of SLB, is a leading global supplier of valves, wellheads, manifolds, and subsea production equipment for upstream Oil & Gas. It is the dominant incumbent iValve competes with for offshore, subsea, and drilling manifold sockets.
• Velan: Velan manufactures industrial valves (ball, gate, globe, check) with a strong Oil & Gas, power, and chemical focus, including severe-service and subsea products. It competes with iValve in high-pressure ball and check valves for upstream and process applications.
• TechnipFMC: TechnipFMC provides integrated subsea production systems including wellheads, manifolds, and control valves for deepwater and offshore developments. It directly overlaps iValve's subsea valve and manifold offerings for hostile-environment applications.
• MOGAS Industries: MOGAS specializes in severe-service ball, check, and gate valves for Oil & Gas, refining, and petrochemical applications, including subsea and high-pressure service. It is the most direct competitor to iValve's compact ball, check, and diverter valve portfolio for upstream and downstream hydrocarbons.
• Bonney Forge: Bonney Forge manufactures forged steel valves, manifolds, and piping products specifically for Oil & Gas, power, and chemical services. Its manifold and valve assemblies compete directly with iValve's custom manifold and high-pressure valve solutions for upstream operators.

Broad incumbents

• Emerson (Fisher Controls): Emerson's Fisher brand supplies control valves, regulators, and isolation valves for Oil & Gas production and processing. It competes with iValve in high-pressure ball and control valve sockets as part of a much larger automation and process-control portfolio.
• Flowserve: Flowserve is a broad industrial valve and pump manufacturer serving Oil & Gas, chemical, power, and water markets. Its comprehensive valve portfolio overlaps with iValve's ball, check, and diverter valves across a much wider product line and geographic footprint.
• Baker Hughes: Baker Hughes is the iValve founder's former employer and a global Oil & Gas equipment and services provider producing valves, wellheads, BOPs, and subsea equipment. It is the most relevant broad incumbent given direct pedigree overlap and product portfolio similarity.
• Crane Co. Crane Co.'s Crane ChemPharma & Energy and Crane Supply segments produce process and severe-service valves for Oil & Gas and chemical processing. It overlaps with iValve's high-pressure valve line as a broader diversified industrial manufacturer.

Regional players

• KITZ Corporation: KITZ is a Japanese industrial valve manufacturer producing bronze, stainless, and ball valves with an Oil & Gas focus. It is a comparable valve competitor but primarily serves Asian markets, making it more of a regional overlap than a direct US-headquartered competitor.
