Abstract

A valve apparatus 130 for a production assembly 100 comprises a control valve 132 configured for regulating and/or controlling flow of a fluid through a conduit 134; and an actuator 136 configured for actuating the control valve 132, wherein the actuator 136 is electrically operable. Provision of an electrically operable actuator may permit the valve apparatus 130 to be more simple, more compact, and/or less onerous, for example when compared to an equivalent hydraulically operated valve assembly. Such a valve apparatus 130 may also reduce the total number of parts required in the valve apparatus, thus potentially reducing maintenance, and improving responsiveness and reliability. This may be particularly advantageous in an unmanned environment such as an unmanned production assembly, e.g. an unmanned satellite platform.
