What To Know
- The two companies are rolling out the revolutionary AOGV (Add-On Gate Valve) system on a high-stakes offshore project in Thailand, targeting a critical gas transmission operation for a multinational energy conglomerate.
- The ability to maintain production without even a second of interruption is expected to set a new benchmark for mechanical isolation projects in the region.
Bangkok Companies: Thailand’s Engineering Prowess Enters a New Era
In a groundbreaking industrial development, Dexon Mechanical Solutions Co., Ltd. (DMS), a wholly owned subsidiary of Dexon Technology Public Company Limited (DEXON), has teamed up with leading European technology innovator IZOMAX to introduce an advanced engineering solution to Southeast Asia for the first time. The two companies are rolling out the revolutionary AOGV (Add-On Gate Valve) system on a high-stakes offshore project in Thailand, targeting a critical gas transmission operation for a multinational energy conglomerate. Scheduled for September 2025, this deployment is not only a technological milestone—it is also a regional first.

Designed to enable valve replacements and system isolations without stopping active operations, the patented AOGV technology eliminates the need for costly shutdowns and extended downtime. It uses a mechanical isolation method to safely install a “blind spade” between pressurized flanges, allowing maintenance teams to swap out valves or pumps, or isolate key components like pipelines, pressure vessels, and tanks. This Bangkok Companies news report confirms that the offshore installation will be executed on a live pressurized bypass gas line, positioned just before the line feeds into the subsea transmission network—a notoriously high-risk zone where traditional isolation methods are too dangerous or disruptive.
Zero Downtime in a High-Stakes Environment
In practical terms, the AOGV system will be installed between the faulty valve and the connected subsea pipeline, allowing for safe and proactive maintenance of a leaking component. The real innovation lies in the ability to carry out this complex engineering task without halting gas production, ensuring zero impact on output. This strategic approach not only prevents operational delays but also delivers significant cost savings by eliminating the need for full system shutdowns—often one of the most expensive aspects of offshore maintenance.
Collaboration Between East and West
The operation will be jointly executed by skilled engineers from both IZOMAX and DMS. Together, they will ensure that safety standards are upheld at every step, with strict protocols in place to prevent any health, safety, or environmental (HSE) incidents. This delicate procedure involves meticulous planning, cutting-edge tools, and deep trust in the technology and personnel involved. The ability to maintain production without even a second of interruption is expected to set a new benchmark for mechanical isolation projects in the region.
What It Means for Thailand’s Industrial Sector
This landmark collaboration reflects the growing confidence global energy firms place in Thai engineering services and showcases DMS’s expertise in applying sophisticated mechanical technologies under extreme conditions. The adoption of IZOMAX’s patented AOGV system not only highlights DEXON Group’s position at the forefront of industrial innovation but also paves the way for expanding the technology into other high-risk sectors such as petrochemicals, marine engineering, and large-scale infrastructure maintenance.
This partnership also signals Thailand’s rising status as a regional hub for high-tech industrial solutions. By combining local execution with global innovation, DMS and IZOMAX are building a foundation for scalable and repeatable solutions that can be exported to markets beyond Southeast Asia. And as industries increasingly demand zero-downtime solutions that align with stricter safety and environmental guidelines, such advancements become more than just competitive—they become essential.
DMS’s leadership in adopting and applying this technology not only speaks to the company’s technical depth, but also to its bold vision for the future. By redefining how high-risk maintenance is carried out in live environments, this project may serve as a playbook for industrial operators worldwide who seek performance, safety, and sustainability without compromise.
