CSM represents a trustworthy technological partner for Oil&Gas players due to its offer wholly covering each and every single aspect related to the product development: the raw tube manufacturing, the design and implementation of the full-fledged components ready for production - either for On and Off-Shore estraction fields or transport lines - and the full scale pre-exercize tests in designed situations.
Expertise gained in manufacturing, metallurgy, modelling&design and engineering activities coupled with a unique test&evaluation capability are proved through experience and deployed through technology.
The real challenging nature of Oil&Gas technologies depends on the set of demanding requirements for high reliability standards they are expected to satisfy before being able to be considered ready-to-be deployed.
In fact, since most of the discovered resources are far from end-using markets, located, as they are, in such harsh areas as deep-water offshore basins or on-shore but in extreme climatic and orographic conditions, Oil&Gas extraction and transport systems need a continuous effort to guarantee the competitiveness of the measures used to overcome those issues.
Thus, Oil&Gas industry conjugates its vocation for highly technical approaches with a pragmatic and strictly targeted effort toward the specific business related objectives.
As a typical example of those opportunities for business, to reach specific high value end-user may imply the deployment of thousand kilometres off- and on-shore pipelines or the management of 3.000 meters deep well-heads digging deep in the ocean conveyed through flowlines and risers submitted to randomly changing hydrodynamic fatigue loads.
Those achievements require a wide spectrum of technologies, from the material metallurgy (e.g., more performing high-grade steels or Corrosion Resistant Alloys...) up to engineering , welding technology, anti-corrosion solutions and testing.
But that also requires an integrated approach in developing technological solutions which take into account all the above mentioned topics while guaranteeing an as high as possibile level of reliability, safety, security, maintenability, investment profitability and environmental sustainability.
Within this scenario the Centro Sviluppo Materiali S.p.A. organization is configured to satisfy worldwide Oil&Gas companies' needs through a complete set of capabilities matching the required technologies.
