Markets Served: Pipe coatings
Shawcor Ltd. is a global energy services company specializing in products and services for the pipeline and pipe services segment of the oil and gas industry and related products for the petrochemical and industrial market. The company operates through a global network of fixed and mobile manufacturing and service facilities.
New Products Rock Jacket is a system that was developed to offer excellent mechanical protection to the anti-corrosion coating and the steel pipe of onshore pipelines with the lowest total installed cost, installation time and environmental impact in the industry. Rock Jacket is a plant applied reinforced concrete pipe coating developed for rocky terrain, rough terrain configurations such as steep slopes and for road and river crossings. It has been designed to be buried directly in blasted out rock trenches without the use of other costly protective products and is ideal for both small and large diameter pipelines.
Shawcor’s pipe coating division has received a Letter of Intent with Saipem for the Yellowtail development project, located in the Stabroek block offshore Guyana at a water depth of approximately 1,800 meters. The company anticipates that it will receive a formal contract in the middle of 2022, subject to the necessary government authorizations. Project initiation is expected to begin in the first quarter of 2023 from Shawcor’s Veracruz, Mexico facility.
In addition to the LOI with Saipem, Shawcor has received formal contract awards from other customers for two smaller projects located in the Gulf of Mexico. Shawcor will provide coating services for these projects which will commence in the second quarter of 2022 from the company’s Veracruz facility.
Shawcor has been selected by TechnipFMC to provide pipeline insulation coating for the Mero 2 project. Located in offshore Brazil, the Mero field is in the deepwater Libra block of the pre-salt Santos Basin at a water depth of 2,100 meters.
This award comes as Shawcor wraps up successful execution of Mero 1, which began in 2019, out of its Serra, Brazil facility.
Shawcor appointed Alan Hibben as a director of the company effective June 1, 2020. Hibben currently serves as a director of Canadian public companies Home Capital Group Inc., Extendicare Inc.and WildBrain Ltd.
Shawcor Ltd. recently announced that its pipe coating division has been awarded a conditional contract from Sumitomo Corporation Europe Limited valued at approximately C$30 million to provide anticorrosion and concrete weight coating services for the Greater BP Tortue Ahmeyim Phase 1A Project development, located offshore Senegal and Mauritania, West Africa. The contract is scheduled to be executed from the Kabil, Indonesia facility during 2020.
For a significant Argentine pipeline, Shawcor leveraged its local resources and expertise to provide a superior pipe coating system solution.
When construction of Argentina’s GNEA natural gas pipeline is complete, up to 27.7 million cubic meters of natural gas per day will be transported from the Margarita Gas Field in Bolivia to Argentina’s northern and central provinces. With approximately 925 miles (1,490 kilometers) of trunklines and 1,677 miles (2,700 kilometers) of branchlines required for the project, Argentina’s state-owned oil company, Enarsa, needed pipe coating solutions providers with the right logistics and installation support capabilities to ensure the integrity and performance of the pipeline for its lifetime use. Due to our coating facilities near Buenos Aires and our global experience on similar projects, Shawcor was selected to provide both the coating and transmission sleeves for the entire trunkline and portions of the branchlines on the GNEA pipeline system.
With Shawcor, Enarsa will realize its goal of ensuring the long-term pipeline performance and corrosion resistance of the GNEA pipeline system. Due to Shawcor’s conveniently located regional facility, which expedited the delivery of coated pipe to the project location, and its training resources, the company helped the project save time and money.
Shawcor Ltd.’s pipe coating division has received a contract in excess of $29.7 million from Marubeni-Itochu Tubulars Asia Pte Ltd, a 100 percent subsidiary of Marubeni-Itochu Steel Inc., to provide internal lining and three layer polyethylene anti-corrosion pipeline coatings for Thailand’s Fifth Transmission Pipeline project.
This project is owned by PTT Public Company Limited, a Thai state enterprise company. The pipeline will run through eight provinces in Thailand and is aimed at reducing risks to electrical power security and easing the delivery of gas from the LNG Terminal in Rayong, Thailand to the Western region.
This contract will be executed in Shawcor’s coating facilities in Malaysia, and is expected to commence in Q4 2017 and to be completed by Q4 2018.
The pipe coating division of ShawCor Ltd., Bredero Shaw, is the world’s largest pipe coatings manufacturer. Bredero Shaw is the global leader in pipe coating solutions for the oil, gas and water industries, offering a wide range of coating solutions, including anti-corrosion protection, thermal insulation, negative buoyancy, mechanical protection and internal flow efficiency coatings.
ShawCor Ltd.’s Bredero Shaw pipe coating division recently introduced SureBond. SureBond is a new class of line-pipe coating that provides superior pipe protection and field joint integrity. It uses an interlocking topcoat molecular structure that solves the difficulties typical to 3-layer coatings and is half as thick. SureBond eliminates the adhesive layer and forms a bond with both the field joint and anti-corrosion layers.
ShawCor Ltd.’s Bredero Shaw pipe coating division recently received a second contract with a value of approximately $200 million from BP Exploration (Shah Deniz) Limited for pipeline coating for the Shah Deniz Stage 2 development project. The contract is scheduled to be executed at the Caspian Pipe Coatings (CPC) plant in Baku. The contract awarded involves the application of anti-corrosion and concrete weight coatings, and upgrades to the CPC plant in Baku to enable the facility to meet the project’s requirements for anti-corrosion and concrete weight coating. Coating is expected to commence in 2015 with completion planned for October 2015. Together with the previously awarded contracts relating to the Shah Deniz Stage 2 and the related South Caucasus Pipeline projects, Bredero Shaw has now secured contracts totaling more than $500 million on these projects.
Bredero Shaw has received notification from Europipe GmbH that the suspension of the work on its contract with Europipe for the concrete weight coating of Line 1 of the South Stream Pipeline has been lifted with immediate effect. In December 2014, ShawCor Ltd. had announced the suspension of the majority of the work on its South Stream Pipeline contracts with Europipe and with Marubeni Sumitomo Consortium and with Saipem SpA.
