The Sultanate’s leading pipe manufacturer, Gulf International Pipe Industry (GIPI) LLC was recently awarded the contract to supply API 5L X52 (Sour service) line pipe with 3LPE coating for Daleel Petroleum LLC. The total load will be around 4,5 kt.
3LPE coating system is a multi-layer coating structure composed of three coating materials of fusion bonded epoxy (FBE), copolymer adhesive and PE or PP top coats for steel pipe anti-corrosion. With years' of experience and expertise in 3LPE pipes and anti-corrosion coating materials, GIPI has established itself as a leading level technology player in the Sultanate and been well recognized for its remarkable performance in oil & gas pipeline corrosion-resistant field.
GIPI is the only manufacturer of 6" to 24" Diameter high pressure Electric Resistance Welded (ERW) Steel Pipes in Oman and will commence delivery of this order from October 2016. The pipes supplied by GIPI are 18 meters in length. The extended length of 18 meters pipe, rather than a standard length of 12 meters, significantly reduces the end user's construction costs by over 30% on welding, NDT and other associated costs, as well as substantial improvements in the speed of project execution. Additionally, a local manufacturer brings other synergies to the customer on just in time delivery, less handling and related logistical challenges, as well as providing a cushion against any damaged products, which can be immediately replaced.
Gulf International Pipe Industry (GIPI) was established as a Limited Liability Company in Sultanate of Oman in January 2007. GIPI is the first manufacturer of high pressure steel line pipes and casing pipes in Oman and the first mill in MENA region and sub continent of India to manufacture high pressure 24” electric resistance welded (ERW) steel pipes.
