Ukrainian industrial company Interpipe made a first supply of line pipes to Qatar Petroleum, one of the biggest oil producers in the Middle East.
According to a company press release, steel pipes are going to be applied for the QP’s onshore Dukhan Field oil and gas basin project.
According to Qatar Petroleum specification, pipes must comply with the highest level of sour service requirements and operate in the H2S environment.
It took us more than three years to become a prequalified supplier for Qatar Petroleum. On the final stage, Bureau Veritas, an international inspection company nominated by QP, conducted a detailed audit of Interpipe facilities to confirm that all specifications and technical requirements were met.
Andrey Burtsev, commercial director for Ukraine, Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East regions, said that the contract with Qatar Petroleum is an important milestone in Interpipe development in the Middle East.
“We have passed through a difficult and long path of negotiations, audits and prequalifications before first supply was made. QP is very selective and cautious when choosing vendors and this contract confirms Interpipe’s reputation as a reliable and first-class pipes supplier for the global Oil & Gas companies,” he said.
