Pipeline and Drilling Projects Can't Settle for Less than Superior Products and Services

Petroleum drilling and transport have stepped up worldwide due to increasing demand, particularly in emerging economies like China's and India's. From offshore pipeline to land-based drill strings, the demand for API 5L pipe and related pipe and tubing makes strategic worldwide distribution of these products indispensable to the global economy. At Corpac Steel Products, our reputation is built on meeting demand, keeping costs contained, and consistently meeting or exceeding customer expectations.

The Products

API 5L pipe isn't the whole story, and petroleum isn't the only industry that needs uncompromising steel pipe and tubing products. Locating the products themselves is only the first step. Buyers have to be confident of product quality, and they have to be able to rely on their suppliers to transport the products to the last mile, even if it means crossing international borders multiple times on the way.

The Costs

Costs must be considered in context. A low price on a product doesn't mean anything if the product arrives late and puts a project behind schedule. Costs must be evaluated along with reputation, networks, logistics, and experience to be meaningful to a particular project. That said, there are suppliers who are able to keep a lid on costs through exemplary efficiency and worldwide networks of manufacturing and inventory location.

The Logistics

Not all steel pipe and tubing suppliers have the logistics expertise to cope flawlessly with the demands from an offshore pipeline project or construction of a steel structure in a remote location. It's best if you know the name of your supplier's logistics coordinator and have a point of contact that you don't have to educate about your requirements. Logistics expertise saves time, and time is money, particularly with major drilling or infrastructure projects.

The Worldwide Network

Your project may be located in a remote part of the world, so getting your steel pipe and tubing, or structural steel products delivered in a timely manner often depends on your supplier having an extensive worldwide network of mills and inventory. At Corpac Steel Products, we believe in superior products, and the network required to get them to customers on time while containing costs.
