TMK and LUKOIL approve cooperation program

TMK, one of the world's leading manufacturers of pipes for the oil and gas industry, and LUKOIL signed a cooperation program for 2014-2016.

The program provides for the launch of import-substituting and new types of high-precision pipe production that will meet modern needs in the oil and gas sector. The program reflects the key areas for the TMK-LUKOIL collaboration body, such as the production of casing pipes, oil and gas pipes and tubing. It also proposes an action plan, including trials, research, presentations, seminars, and a technical support system.



Alexander Shiryaev, General Director of TMK, said that “LUKOIL has always been one of the most valuable partners for TMK. In addition to the fact that we supply our pipes for oil and gas, the main thing is that we also accumulate extensive experience in the joint launch and application of innovative pipe products.

TMK's advanced technologies and capabilities are designed to meet the most demanding expectations of oil and gas companies. We rely on a joint effort to provide LUKOIL with state-of-the-art premium pipes tailored to the specific needs of oilfield service centers. At the same time, this will help expand TMK's innovation line to ensure the production of high-demand products. "

LUKOIL subsidiaries such as OOO LUKOIL-Western Siberia and OOO LUKOIL-Nizhnevolzhskneft act as executors of the Cooperation Program. On the part of TMK, in the implementation of the program of scientific and technical cooperation, the company's factories, TMK-Neftegazservice, the RosNITI Institute, the TMK Houston Research Center, and TMK-Premium Services act.
