Seamless and welded tubes can be delivered on the customer’s own reels or de-coiled and cut to length. The Houston center also will offer encapsulated systems and a flush-and-fill service with hydraulic oil, according to the Nas Class 6 cleanliness standard. Additionally, Sandvik will provide technical support to assist with correct material selection for the offshore environment, and if need be, develop a product tailored to the application.
