Corinth Pipeworks, the steel pipe division of Cenergy Holdings, has signed an agreement to acquire an LSAW <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/company-to-supply-carbon-fiber-tubes-for-construction-of-worlds-largest-airship\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"230346\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pipe mill<\/a><\/strong> located in Hartlepool, United Kingdom. The transaction, formalized on March 4, 2026, involves a total consideration of \u00a310 million.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The historic Hartlepool LSAW pipe mill<\/h2>\n\n<p>The Hartlepool plant has nearly a century of industrial activity. Since its founding in 1926, the facility has been involved in supplying steel pipes for some of the world&#8217;s most demanding energy projects. <\/p>\n\n<p>Major energy companies such as Shell, BP, Total, and Equinor have turned to this infrastructure for the development of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/articulo\/multi-product-pipelines-transportation\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/articulo\/poliductos-en-el-transporte-energetico\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">oil and gas transport systems<\/a><\/strong>. Likewise, subsea engineering specialists like Subsea 7 and Saipem have used these solutions in highly complex offshore operations. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Expansion of LSAW pipe production capacity<\/h2>\n\n<p>Longitudinal Submerged Arc Welding technology, known as LSAW, allows for the manufacture of large-diameter pipes capable of withstanding extreme pressure and operating conditions. These features make them key components for gas pipelines, oil pipelines, and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/shearwater-begins-first-deepwater-node-seismic-survey-in-ghana\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/noticias\/shearwater-estudio-nodos-en-aguas-profundas\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">deepwater energy projects<\/a><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n<p>With the integration of the British plant, Corinth Pipeworks expects to significantly expand its industrial capacity in this segment. The operation will double the group&#8217;s LSAW pipe production and facilitate the execution of large-scale energy projects in various international markets. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key infrastructure for the energy transition<\/h2>\n\n<p>The Hartlepool facility also aligns with UK industrial priorities related to the modernization of energy infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/american-petroleum-institute-requirements\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/noticias\/el-api-refuerza-los-requisitos-para-las-tuberias-de-revestimiento-y-de-acero\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">steel pipes<\/a><\/strong> produced in these types of plants are essential for high-pressure hydrogen transport and <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/exxonmobil-accelerates-its-deployment-of-carbon-capture-and-storage-in-the-u-s\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/noticias\/exxon-captura-y-almacenamiento-de-carbono\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">carbon capture and storage<\/a><\/strong> systems. These technologies are part of global efforts to reduce emissions and strengthen energy security. <\/p>\n\n<p>Likewise, the reshoring of industrial supply chains in Europe boosts the relevance of strategic manufacturing facilities within the continent.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A commitment to large-scale energy projects<\/h2>\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cenergyholdings.com\/new\/corinth-pipeworks-to-acquire-lsaw-pipe-mill-in-the-uk\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/cenergyholdings.com\/new\/corinth-pipeworks-to-acquire-lsaw-pipe-mill-in-the-uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cenergy Holdings<\/a><\/strong> highlights that the acquisition expands the group&#8217;s capabilities to participate in complex energy transport projects.<\/p>\n\n<p>The combination of a plant with a long industrial track record and Corinth Pipeworks&#8217; technological expertise will allow for the delivery of high-performance piping solutions for global energy sector clients.<\/p>\n\n<p>With a presence in over 50 countries, the company continues to strengthen its position as a specialized provider of steel pipes for critical applications in energy infrastructure and industrial construction.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cpw.gr\/en\/media-center\/news-events\/newsevent-h-swlhnoyrgeia-korin8oy-ejagorazei-monada-paragwghs-swlhnwn-lsaw-sto-hnwmeno-basileio\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.cpw.gr\/en\/media-center\/news-events\/newsevent-h-swlhnoyrgeia-korin8oy-ejagorazei-monada-paragwghs-swlhnwn-lsaw-sto-hnwmeno-basileio\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Corinth Pipeworks<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Corinth Pipeworks purchases the Hartlepool LSAW plant to expand its pipe production for global energy projects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9014,"featured_media":342093,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13026,13036],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-342142","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-energy","categoria_noticias-oil-and-gas"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/342142","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9014"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=342142"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/342142\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/342093"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=342142"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=342142"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=342142"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
