Corinth Pipeworks has received contracts to provide polypropylene-coated steel outer pipes for two offshore pipeline construction projects in the Norwegian Sea.

Corinth Pipeworks Pipe Industry SA today announced it has entered into agreements with Subsea 7 to manufacture and supply steel pipes for two subsea tie-back projects to FPSOs operated by Aker BP in the Norwegian Sea.

The agreements cover polypropylene-coated steel outer pipes for pipe-in-pipe flow lines to be used in the following projects:

• Skogul Project – 14” linepipe for an 18 kilometer gas pipeline
• Aerfugl Project  – 16” linepipe for a 21 kilometer gas pipeline

The pipes for the offshore pipelines will be manufactured in Corinth Pipeworks’ HFI pipe mill located in Thisvi, Greece, with Subsea 7’s installation by reel-lay scheduled to occur in 2019 and 2020, respectively.
