The company has been successfully selected as one of #Sinopec’s 2024 non-API casing suppliers, consolidating its position as “Preferred Supplier” for the third consecutive year. This achievement not only highlights the quality of Vallourec Tianda’s services and products but also marks another milestone in the deepening cooperation between both parties!

A testimony to excellence in the energy industry

As a global leader in the energy sector, Sinopec’s annual tender for OCTG products is an industry highlight. Vallourec’s repeated success over the past three years is the result of its team’s tireless efforts and unwavering commitment to innovation. By integrating and effectively serving the two major subsidiaries within the Sinopec system, Vallourec has earned the recognition and trust of its customers through the performance of its products and the quality of its services.

Exemplary collaboration between departments

The success of this bid is rooted in exemplary collaboration between departments within Vallourec in China. The sales and plant operations teams worked closely together to overcome various challenges and provide solutions tailored to Sinopec’s requirements.


Shen Baohui, Sales Manager for Sinopec & PetroChina Key Accounts, emphasized, “Although tender specifications cannot be determined at this stage, based on our previous supply experiences, it is likely that crush- and sulfur-resistant steel grade casings are expected to be the main specifications supplied.


Wang Jijun
, Vallourec OCTG Sales Manager, added, “While we have made significant breakthroughs in high-collapse steel casings in recent years, customers may demand even higher specifications, such as 155HC and 165HC, in the future. If we want to capture a larger share of the ultra-deep well market in China, it is essential that we continue to expand our product ranges.

A forward-looking approach

In the face of cyclical industry fluctuations and technical challenges, Vallourec remains steadfast in its customer-focused approach, continuously optimizing its product structure and improving service quality. This proactive strategy and relentless pursuit of excellence lay a solid foundation for even closer future cooperation between Vallourec and Sinopec.

This third consecutive victory is not only a validation of Vallourec Tianda’s strategy and quality but also a tangible proof of the importance of harmonious collaboration and continuous innovation in a constantly evolving market.
