Industries and Applications We Supply

Industry Applications
Oil & Gas Industry
  • Kenya’s oil and gas sector is undergoing a transformational phase with the development of the Turkana oil fields discovered by Tullow Oil, the proposed East African Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP), and the LAPSSET Corridor connecting Lamu Port to South Sudan and Ethiopia. The Kenya Pipeline Company (KPC) operates the critical Mombasa-Nairobi-Eldoret pipeline system — a 450km+ network requiring ANSI B16.5 flanges rated for petroleum product service across diverse pressure classes.Werner Flanges supplies Weld Neck and Blind Flanges in Class 600# and 900# Carbon Steel and Alloy Steel for these demanding upstream and midstream applications, with full API and NACE compliance documentation



Petrochemical & Chemical Processing
  • The Kenya Petroleum Refineries Limited (KPRL) at Changamwe, Mombasa, represents Kenya’s downstream processing hub. Though currently operating in storage and distribution mode, ongoing revamp discussions point to sustained demand for high-specification flanges in refinery piping, storage tank farms, and product loading systems. Werner Flanges provides ASTM A182 Stainless Steel and Alloy Steel flanges to meet refinery-grade specifications.
Power Generation
  • Kenya is a regional leader in renewable energy, with geothermal capacity at Olkaria (KenGen) exceeding 800 MW and growing. Geothermal plants require flanges capable of handling superheated steam at high pressures and temperatures — a core competency of Werner Flanges’ Alloy Steel product range. Kenya’s expanding gas and HFO peaking power plants (such as those managed by KenGen and independent power producers) also utilize ANSI B16.5 flanges in boiler feed water, cooling, and fuel gas systems.
Water & Wastewater Treatment
  • Kenya’s National Water Harvesting and Storage Authority and the Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company oversee an extensive water infrastructure network. Major projects including the Thwake Multi-Purpose Dam and the Northern Water Collector Tunnel require large-diameter, low-to-medium pressure flanges in Carbon Steel and Ductile Iron. Werner Flanges supplies ANSI B16.5 Slip On and Weld Neck Flanges for water transmission mains, pump stations, and treatment plant piping.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

q1: what is the difference between ansi b16.5 and asme b16.5?
ansi b16.5 and asme b16.5 refer to the same standard. ansi (american national standards institute) previously administered the standard, but it is now maintained by asme (american society of mechanical engineers). the two terms are used interchangeably in the industry, and werner flanges’ products comply fully with the current asme b16.5 edition.
q2: how do i select the correct pressure class for my kenyan project?
pressure class selection depends on the design pressure, operating temperature, and material group of the flange. for example, a class 150# astm a105 carbon steel flange at 100°f is rated for 285 psi. werner flanges’ application engineers can review your p&id and line list to recommend the correct pressure class and material combination. contact us with your process conditions for a free technical consultation.
q3: what delivery times should i expect for ansi b16.5 flanges to nairobi or mombasa?
for standard grades and sizes in stock, sea freight transit to mombasa port is 18–22 days from our manufacturing facility. delivery to nairobi is an additional 1–2 days by road or standard gauge railway (sgr). air freight is available for urgent requirements, with a transit of 5–7 days. contact us to confirm stock availability for your specific requirements.
q4: can werner flanges supply flanges compliant with nace mr0175 for sour service in kenya’s oil fields?
yes. werner flanges supplies nace mr0175 / iso 15156 compliant flanges for hydrogen sulfide (h2s) sour service applications, such as those encountered in kenya’s turkana basin oil fields. compliant materials include astm a182 f316l, f22, f91, and certain duplex and super duplex grades, all with hardness restrictions and nace compliance certificates.
q5: are third-party inspections available for orders to kenya?
yes. werner flanges facilitates third-party inspection by tüv rheinland, dnv gl, bureau veritas, lloyd’s register, and sgs at our manufacturing facility prior to dispatch. inspection release notes and all quality documents are provided digitally and in hard copy with each shipment.
q6: can werner flanges supply non-standard or custom-size flanges for specialty projects in kenya?
yes. werner flanges has in-house custom manufacturing capabilities for non-standard bore sizes, proprietary facing dimensions, special coatings (fbe, ptfe lining), and flanges exceeding the 24″ nps limit of asme b16.5 (per asme b16.47). lead times for custom orders are typically 4–8 weeks depending on material and complexity.
