Austria-based steelmaker voestalpine has announced that it will supply 120,000 mt of high-strength linepipe plates for Brazilian multinational Petrobras' third pipeline in the world's largest oilfield, near Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, between September 2014 and March 2015. Negotiations are also currently underway for extremely challenging pipeline projects in Russia, Mexico, and India.
Voestalpine will cooperate with the global pipe and tube producer Tenaris for the linepipe plate supply to Petrobras' Rota 3 pipeline connecting the natural gas and oil field in the Santos basin just off the coast of Rio de Janeiro with the Comberj refinery.
