Vallourec subsidiary that specializes in the production and repair of accessories for oil and gas wells, Vallourec Tube-Alloy, opened a new plant in Singapore, to be known as Vallourec Tube-Alloy Asia-Pacific.
This new site will support the group’s OCTG activities by expanding the geographic footprint of Vallourec Tube-Alloy, which until now was mainly centered on four production facilities in the US.
Located in northern Singapore, this new site is specialized in threading VAM premium connections on wellhead and completion equipment, and in manufacturing turnkey OCTG accessories. It has annual capacity of 25,000 threads.
The unit is fully qualified to undertake the series of operations required to produce VAM premium connections. With 50 engineers and technicians, the facility is well positioned to support oil and gas equipment manufacturers based in Singapore as well as operators based in the region, whose projects require high added-value tubular solutions.
“Considering the strategic importance of the Asia-Pacific zone for its markets, Vallourec is now strengthening its long-term position in the Singapore region, a major oil and gas hub, ready to develop its services and match its customers’ requirements as closely as possible,” Olivier Mathey, VP of Vallourec Tube-Alloy Asia Pacific said.
Vallourec has approximately 2000 employees in Asia-Pacific where it offers a full range of products and services (oil, gas and electricity markets) through three plants in China (Valinox Nuclear Guanzhou, Vallourec Changzhou, VAM Changzhou), two in Indonesia (Batam Island) including logistics and port services, the new Vallourec Tube-Alloy facility in Singapore, a Serimax plant for tube welding in Malaysia, a joint venture in Vietnam and several sales offices, including Seoul (Korea), Jakarta (Indonesia), Perth (Australia), Beijing-Shanghai (China) and Ho Chi Minh (Vietnam).
