TMK starts to supply pipe for offshore development in Russian Arctic

Russia-based TMK, one of the world's leading oil and gas steel pipe producers, has announced that it has made the first shipment of tubular products for the construction of production wells on the Arctic shelf. The pipes were manufactured for Russia’s fourth largest oil producer Gazprom Neft's subsidiary Gazprom Neft Shelf to be used at the Prirazlomnoye oil field in the Pechora Sea at the northwest of Russia.

“Tapping offshore fields in the Russian Arctic is a new challenge for all industry players, and we are willing to contribute by offering our partners high-tech tubular products to their requirements, which not only match but surpass our foreign competitors,” said Alexander Shiryaev, TMK’s CEO.
