Sandvik Materials signs contracts for control lines in the Middle East

Sandvik Materials Technology, a division of Sandvik Group, recently signed two contracts to deliver control lines in the Middle East's oil and gas industry.

Consisting of coiled stainless steel and nickel alloy tubing wound on reels, control lines are combined with accessories to help in controlling the flow of oil in offshore oil wells.

Sandvik will supply a complete package of materials, including control line tubing and clamps, to an oil producer based in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). The order of high-alloyed material for application in sour wells will be delivered in the third quarter of this year.

The second contract is with a service company in Abu Dhabi. It includes delivery of a major package for chemical injection applications for use on the Umm Lulu and Al Nasr oil fields in the UAE.  Delivery for this contract is targeted for the last quarter of 2015.

“Sandvik has established itself as a dependable producer and supplier of choice for high quality materials as our products continue to be used in some of the most aggressive conditions in the oil and gas sector," Leandro Finzetto, global product manager, Control Lines, Tube Oil & Gas for Sandvik, said. "We look forward to working with our new customers and enabling them to go further with our superior materials.”
