Corinth Pipeworks awarded major offshore pipeline project in East Mediterranean region
Corinth Pipeworks, the steel pipe segment of Cenergy Holdings, has signed an agreement to manufacture and supply steel pipes got Israel Natural Gas Lines (INGL), a natural gas distributor in Israel, for the offshore section of a new high-pressure gas
couplings, elbows, flanges or wall plates between 15 – 108mm, the new addition complements the portfolio. With the two XXL dimensions 139.7mm and 168.3mm, even very large risers can be easily realised, for example in high- rise buildings. “With this latest addition to our portfolio and the introduction of dimension 168mm earlier in 2020, we can fully cover the demands for larger piping, for example risers in tall buildings,” explained Mathias Van den Broeck, product and business development manager at Sanha. The demand has been growing in the past years in many parts of the world and is expected to grow even further. Both dimensions are introduced in two types of material. “In this way, we give our customers the opportunity to choose the most suitable and economically advantageous system, depending on the application,” he added. All NiroSan press fittings and pipes are made from the premium stainless-steel pipeline between the cities of Ashdod and Ashkelon. Chevron, having recently completed its acquisition of Noble Energy, as the operator of Leviathan and Tamar offshore gas fields, has entered into an agreement with INGL for the provision of transmission services of natural gas. The new pipeline system, in addition to the expansion of other lines, will enable Chevron and its partners to send as much as seven billion cubic meters of gas annually to Egypt. The contract for approximately 50km of 36" LSAW linepipe also includes
anti-corrosion coating and concrete weight coating all of which will be manufactured at Thisvi facility in Greece within 2021. The installation of the pipeline is scheduled to start in 2022. Corinth Pipeworks www.cpw.gr/en
Sanha adds new dimension of pipes and fittings to its stainless steel series of products
Sanha, a manufacturer of press fit pipe systems for drinking water, gas, solar, heating, cooling and sanitary applications, has introduced a new dimension of pipes and fittings. While both systems – NiroSan ® and NiroTherm ® – already provide installers with a large and flexible range of pipes and fittings including for example tees,
type 1.4404/AISI 316L (for pressing components). The material 1.4404 contains at least 2.3 per cent molybdenum, yet less carbon than the conventional type 1.4401. For this reason, material no 1.4404/316L is a superior material with higher corrosion resistance than standard stainless steels. This is mainly an advantage in critical applications, such as drinking water installations. The NiroTherm fittings and pipes are produced from the material 1.4301 (AISI 304). The system offers a safe and reliable solution, especially in humid environments, without the risk of external corrosion and thus offers an excellent alternative to carbon steel systems. Thanks to the high corrosion resistance, there are large savings in personnel and material costs for the insulation against humidity. Furthermore, NiroTherm is also an ideal solution for compressed air systems and for cooling applications with glycol and similar media. Sanha www.sanha.com
