Vallourec will deliver carbon steel OCTG threaded with its premium VAM® connections, which have been recognized as the proven standard for the Algerian market. Deliveries are expected in 2025 and 2026, and in total the operation is expected to result in greater than $250 million in revenues for Vallourec. This renewed partnership was made possible by Vallourec’s leading technical solutions and strong operating performance in the region over many years.

These solutions will be manufactured across several Vallourec’s plants in Brazil, China, France, and Indonesia. This global production footprint enables Vallourec to ensure high quality standards and a flexible supply chain to meet SONATRACH’s requirements.

Laurent Dubedout, Senior Vice President OCTG, Services and Accessories declared:  “This notice of award further establishes Vallourec’s leadership in North Africa, a key region for our premium OCTG solutions. SONATRACH’S continued confidence in VAM® connections, based on years of successful field performance, highlights the value we bring to its projects. Thanks to our global industrial footprint, we continue to support our customer in optimizing their drilling operations while maintaining the highest standards of quality and reliability.”
