Meudon (France), June 17, 2024
– Vallourec, world leader in premium seamless tubular solutions,
announces the signature of a 5-year contract with Equinor in Brazil
for the turnkey supply of premium tubes and connections,
accessories, and services. Equinor, a global energy giant, is one
of the largest oil producers in Brazil.
Vallourec low-carbon high performance OCTG
solutions will contribute to the development of the Bacalhau and
Raia fields operated in the pre-salt, as well as the Peregrino
field in the post-salt, while contributing to Equinor's Energy
Transition Plan to reach net zero by 2050.
The contract also includes innovative digital
solutions, as well as Vallourec’s full set of Tubular Management
Services (TMS). These services will increase efficiencies of
onshore and offshore operations and reduce the total cost of
ownership for Equinor.
Vallourec's strategic premium hub in Brazil,
comprising the Barreiro and Jeceaba (Minas Gerais) production
plants, and the Vallourec Tubular Solutions (VTS) integrated
services centre in Macae, will handle all Equinor's needs featuring
a high degree of local content and an optimized supply chain.
Bertrand Frischmann, Chief Operating Officer of
the Americas and member of Vallourec's Executive Committee,
commented, “Vallourec has been a supplier of Equinor for over 10
years, thanks to its expertise and high value-added products. Our
complete OCTG offer will allow Equinor to operate demanding fields
in the pre-salt, underlining our level of excellence in
Brazil."
First product deliveries are expected in the
second half of 2025.
