Strohm to supply 33km of thermoplastic composite pipe for gas plant

and terminated in the field using a local workforce. The low weight solid pipe structure is immune to corrosion and has a smooth liner ensuring enhanced flow. The contract was awarded following Saudi Aramco’s and its engineering partner KBR’s material selection studies, which showed that TCP was the most suitable solution for the flowline, due to its demonstrated fluid compatibility, high qualification standards, lack of corrosion and low carbon footprint. Strohm’s vice president for Africa, Middle East & Asia-Pacific, Fabienne Ellington, said: “This contract represents a milestone for Strohm, and it is a testament to our longstanding relationship with Saudi Aramco and the company’s trust in our products. The award reinforces our commitment to Saudi Arabia as a strategic growth area and its role as a pivotal gateway to the broader markets in Middle East, Asia and East Africa.

Strohm, which supplies thermoplastic composite pipe (TCP), has been awarded a contract to supply 33km of its TCP flowline for Saudi Aramco’s Fadhili gas plant in Saudi Arabia. Following a successful pilot with Saudi Aramco, this is Strohm’s first commercial contract for onshore application in the region. The project also marks the first time the company has used its newly offered electrofusion coupler (EFC), a completely non-metallic, welded and fully bonded joint that is corrosion free and enables buried application as it requires no seals. The EFC is a cost effective solution and is easy and fast to install on site. The 6" glass fibre polyethylene composite pipe will be used for rich mono ethylene glycol transport and is due to be delivered in September 2025. It will be produced in the company’s manufacturing plant in the Netherlands

“This will be a stepping stone as we aim to expand our reach and deliver value across these dynamic geographies. Not only that, but the EFC’s adoption also enhances our onshore operations and positions us at the forefront of innovation, paving the way for our entry into the hydrogen and carbon capture and storage markets.” The $7.7bn project aims to increase the plant’s processing capacity to four billion standard cubic feet per day.
