Vallourec Secures Five Indonesian OCTG Contracts Totaling 36,000 Tons

The awards signal demand for high-spec tubing for Indonesia’s deepwater wells with local finishing at PTCT.

Overview

  • Vallourec announced five supply deals for oil‑country tubular goods, covering about 36,000 tons of premium pipes and connections for Indonesian oil and gas projects.
  • OCTG refers to the steel pipes and threaded connectors used to drill and line wells, which must seal tightly and handle high pressure downhole.
  • The orders target complex deep offshore wells that face extreme pressure and harsh conditions in Indonesia’s waters.
  • The company will deliver advanced VAM 21 connections and will heat treat and thread the pipes at PTCT, its Indonesian unit, to meet performance needs.
  • The contracts span different operators and will support work on roughly 140 wells, with Vallourec saying local processing keeps more production in-country and brings value to Indonesia.
