In a significant triumph, LIBERTY Pipes Hartlepool has been awarded two contracts by Subsea7 for the Yggdrasil and Valhall PWP-Fenris offshore field development projects in the North Sea.
The company will produce a total of 16.6 kilometers of longitudinally submerged arc welded pipe for these contracts, supplying them to Subsea7's bundle fabrication facility in Scotland. Manufacturing of the pipes will commence soon and continue throughout 2023.
The LSAW pipes to be produced by LIBERTY will adhere to API 5L specifications, ensuring precise tolerances for a seamless fabrication and installation process. Prior to delivery, the pipes will be coated by LIBERTY Pipes Hartlepool.
Jeffrey Kabel, LIBERTY Steel's Chief Transformation Officer, expressed pride in winning this substantial North Sea contract. He emphasized how LIBERTY's pipes division has the potential to drive the development of crucial energy infrastructure in the UK and worldwide.
