Treadstone’s Valve Changer (TVC) tools are patent protected, engineered, effective, and proven safe.

Established in 2008, Treadstone Oilfield Services Ltd. began as an Oilfield Maintenance company. Since 2010, we have been specializing in the replacement and maintenance of load valves & desand valves on live production tanks. These Production tanks are typically filled with produced fluids such as salt water, crude oil, sand and sludge.

We Are The Live Tank Valve Change Specialists

Load Valve PROBLEMS

Valves seize up, heat lock, leak, over-center, or the stem will twist.

Our SOLUTION

This problem can easily be solved by changing out valves with the TVC tool while the tanks are in production. Pro Tip: Changing out old valves sooner than later minimizes problems and hazards. It’s the smart choice. 

Desand and Sting Valve PROBLEMS

An overflowing vault or uncontrollable leak can occur because gaskets tend to wash out during sting crew procedures such as flushing thick sludge and sand.

Our SOLUTION

We install our TVC tool safely through the old valve, unbolt it and remove the old gaskets and valve. We then install proper steel ringed gaskets and a gate valve, all without door pulling the tank.
