Vallourec S.A. Receives Major Contract from Azule Energy for Greater Paj Offshore Development in Angola

Vallourec S.A. announced that it has been awarded a major contract by Azule Energy for the Greater PAJ offshore development project in Angola. Under this contract, Vallourec S.A. will supply more than 26,000 tons of seamless carbon steel line pipes, representing approximately 210 kilometers of pipeline, including advanced solutions with heavy thermal insulation coating. Deliveries associated with this order will begin in July 2027 and continue through December 2027.

This contract will support the development of one of the largest and most technically demanding deepwater projects currently underway offshore Angola. Located approximately 200 kilometers offshore Angola in water depths ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 meters, the Greater PAJ project encompasses the development of five offshore fields: Palas, Astraea, Juno, Dione and Urano. Vallourec S.A. will deliver line pipe solutions for Production lines, Service lines, Water Injection lines and Gas Export lines, supporting critical infrastructure required for safe and efficient hydrocarbon production and transportation in ultra-deepwater conditions.

The project will involve one of the thickest thermal insulation systems ever implemented in the subsea industry, reaching up to 120 mm of Glass Syntactic Polypropylene (GSPP) insulation thickness.
