Corinth Pipeworks has been selected by TotalEnergies and his Partners (WintershallDea and Pan American Sur) to manufacture and supply approximately 40km of 24” longitudinally submerged arc welded steel pipes for the Fenix phase 1 gas export pipeline.

Fenix gas field is part of the Cuenca Marina Austral (CMA-1) license, operated by Total Austral in Tierra del Fuego, Argentina since the 1990’s, one of the world’s most southern offshore development locations. 

Fenix will be the latest addition being developed with a minimum wellhead platform sending production towards the Vega Pleyade platform for subsea connection to the existing pipeline to onshore. 

The pipes will be manufactured in Corinth Pipeworks’ facilities in Greece, and installation work will commence according to schedule in 2023. 

Scope of supply also includes external 3LPE anti-corrosion coating and concrete weight coating applied at the same location as pipe manufacturing in Thisvi, Greece. 

Corinth Pipeworks’ CEO, Ilias Bekiros noted: “we’ve made fantastic progress in offshore markets in recent years we look forward to working with the TotalEnergies team in Argentina to make sure this is a successful project.”
