Line Pipe & Hydrocabon Processing
Creating value for your Hydrocarbon Processing projects
Vallourec has a long experience in supplying a full range of seamless pipes for Hydrocarbon Processing projects. We offer the widest dimensional range of carbon steel, middle-low alloy steel pipes and high alloy seamless steel pipes worldwide, designed to be used in the most demanding conditions – high pressure / high temperature applications, corrosive environments, cryogenic conditions and various challenging combinations.
Thanks to its expertise and experience in SURF markets (Subsea, Umbilicals, Risers and Flowlines), Vallourec develops and delivers the highest standards for seamless pipes to address extreme environments: improved tube performance, enhanced weldability and better resistance to corrosion. Vallourec’s designs are tailored to bring value beyond the pipe and support the increasing complexity of offshore operations.
- Applications: infield flowlines (production and water-gas injection lines), export lines, risers (e.g. steel catenary riser, hybrid riser for the rigid part).
- Services and One-Stop-Shop: coating services, pipe-in-pipe, induction bends, multiple joints, anode pads welding, line pipes, composite beveling, buckle arrestors, J-Lay collars (as per customer design), laser pipe-end measurement, laser straightness measurement, machining services, advanced pipe traceability system, project management, technical training program; all these services are tailored to your needs.
Welding Solutions
Vallourec, through its subsidiary Serimax, is the world-leading welding solutions provider with an unrivalled track record in offshore welding. We offer optimal welding services and technology for subsea pipeline installation (J-Lay, S-Lay, Reeling) and fabrication.
