Vallourec
Across all applications, from conventional and unconventional fields to deep-water, HPHT wells and special applications, Vallourec provides you with competitive and innovative solutions to help you select the products and services best suited for your projects.
As oil & gas projects become even more challenging, new solutions are needed to enable critical projects or to address Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) challenges. Vallourec is able to support you on decision making by using advanced techniques, such as casing wear assessment during well design as well as simulation of in-situ well environment based on thermodynamic calculation and advanced corrosion testing to simulate real operational conditions.
During this webcast, concrete examples will be presented by our experts that demonstrate Vallourec’s expertise in well design and material selection.
