The evaluation procedure was carried out by TÜV Nord. “I amso happy and proud of my teamand company, to accomplish the EN 9100 certification,” said Eduard WJ Regele, CEO of DTP. “This is an important step for us and our diversification strategy. Trans Adriatic Pipeline AG (TAP) has awarded Corinth Pipeworks a contract for the supply of large diameter pipes, for a total length of approximately 495km, for the onshore part of the pipeline across Greece. The contract for approximately 270,000 tonnes of 48" diameter line pipe was awarded to Corinth Pipeworks, in partnership with the Japanese group Marubeni-Itochi Steel, following an international tender and a strict evaluation procedure. Delivery of line pipes will begin in 2016 and will be completed in 2017. Corinth Pipeworks produces steel pipes utilised in energy projects, specifically for the transmission of liquid and gas fuel, and also supplies large diameter

special form of cold rolling. The claimed advantages are material homogeneity, small tolerance ranges and a perfect surface finish. The production and know-how is highly specialised for manufacturing and developing seamless tubes made of zirconium, titanium, nickel-based alloys and aircraft alloys.

As a long-term supplier for cladding tubes for nuclear fuel rods we have the quality management system to also fulfil aviation industry requirements. The goal is to find customers and industries with a special demand for high precision tubes, with a need for very small tolerance ranges and perfect surfaces. We have the stable and capable processes to meet those demands.”

The Trans Adriatic Pipeline will transport natural gas from the giant Shah Deniz II field in Azerbaijan to Europe. The 878km-long pipeline will connect with the Trans Anatolian Pipeline (TANAP) at the Turkish-Greek border, then cross Greece, Albania and the Adriatic Sea, before coming ashore in southern Italy. TAP’s routing can facilitate gas supply to several South Eastern European countries, including Bulgaria, Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro and Croatia. TAP’s landfall in Italy provides multiple opportunities for further transport of Caspian natural gas to some of the largest European markets such as Germany, France, the

UK, Switzerland and Austria. First gas sales to Georgia and Turkey are targeted for late 2018, with first deliveries to Europe in early 2020.
