Strohm enters Egyptian market following its first flowline contract

This is the Dutch manufacturer’s first contract in the country.

The carbon fibre and PA12 polymer TCP flowline has a design pressure of 5000 psi and it is qualified to DNV-ST-F119 standard. It will be installed by Oceaneering International at water depths of almost 600 m, replacing an existing steel flowline. It will be installed using the highly flexible and cost effective horizontal lay method, enabling the use of a multi-purpose vessel and avoiding the need for specialised installation vessels. It is the first TCP solution of this type utilised in the region.

TCP is a flexible, lightweight and easy to deploy solution which can be transported and installed with light construction vessels. It is expected to unlock substantial total installation cost savings for the operator and enhance project planning flexibility, enabling accelerated execution.

Norman Lentsch, Strohm’s business development manager for Africa, said: “This contract marks an important milestone for us as we enter the Egyptian market for the first time. We are proud to work with Oceaneering International and Burullus Gas Company as we support the region’s growing energy infrastructure needs with our high-quality flowline solutions.”

“Our entry into the local market underscores the confidence operators have in our TCP products, our extensive track record and our ability to deliver consistent quality and performance. We look forward to demonstrating Strohm’s commitment to safety and excellence.”

Chris Dyer, senior vice president at Oceaneering’s Offshore Project Group, added: “At Oceaneering, we have extensive experience installing flexible products, including TCP. By leveraging our umbilical product installation capabilities to support TCP installations, we can maximise our assets globally and streamline project execution, providing tangible benefits to the end user in overall project cost and schedule.”

Strohm is the leading manufacturer of TCP with the largest track record in the world. The technology provides a strong, corrosion free, and field-proven solution for operators. The use of TCP manufactured by Strohm also allows clients to significantly reduce the CO₂ footprint of their subsea infrastructure.
