EUROPIPE delivers pipes for Baltic Pipe Poland

EUROPIPE will receive an order for the delivery of large-diameter pipes, anti-corrosion coating and concrete weight coating for the Polish offshore part of the Baltic Pipe Project. This was announced by GAZ-SYSTEM S.A. The total quantity is 130.000 tons (275 km). The contract will be signed within the next weeks.
 
The 36” large-diameter pipes will be produced by EUROPIPE in the plant in Mülheim an der Ruhr. MÜLHEIM PIPECOATINGS GmbH, a subsidiary of EUROPIPE, will perform the external coating and internal lining of pipes. This will secure a basic workload for several months. The raw material for the pipe production will be supplied to EUROPIPE by its shareholders, Salzgitter group and Dillinger Hüttenwerke AG.

The Baltic Pipe Project is a strategic gas infrastructure project with the goal of creating a new gas supply corridor in the European market.
The Baltic Pipe Project will allow transport of gas from Norway to the Danish and Polish markets, as well as to end-users in neighbouring countries. At the same time, the Baltic Pipe Project will enable the supply of gas from Poland to the Danish market.
The project is being developed in collaboration between the Danish gas and electricity transmission system operator Energinet and the Polish gas transmission system operator GAZ-SYSTEM.
