'Kuwait Oil Company was able to rely on our excellent relationship with Tianda.'
The Jurassic Production Facilities off-Plot Works Project
In February 2018, Van Leeuwen Gulf, together with its Kuwaiti partners (Combined General), signed a contract to supply the main contractor ‘Combined Group’ to serve one of the country’s largest oil companies: Kuwait Oil Company (KOC). We supplied pipes for a 150-kilometre pipeline for the Jurassic Production Facilities off-Plot Works project. KOC is constructing a new pipeline network in northern Kuwait for this project over a period of five years.
Hadi Nassar, Regional General Manager Van Leeuwen Gulf: ‘For this contract, main contractor ‘Combined Group’ and project owner KOC were able to fully rely on our excellent relationship with the manufacturer Tianda Oil Pipe China, since 2016 a subsidiary of Vallourec, a global pipe producer. We delivered the materials on-site in close cooperation with Tianda. The pipes were supplied in accordance with the customer’s strict specifications and within a tight schedule. This enabled KOC to keep the Pipeline’s construction on schedule.’
