Two pipe manufacturing companies on the Gulf Coast have been contracted to make several tons of large diameter pipe for a natural gas pipeline project in Texas.
Mobile''s Berg Spiral Pipe and its sister company Berg Steel Pipe in Panama City, Fla., subsidiaries of Germany''s Europipe Gmbh, will jointly produce some 480,000 net tons of pipe for Energy Transfer Partners.
The more than 600 miles of pipe needed would be the steelmakers largest order in its 35-year history, officials said in a statement.
"Berg is in a very unique situation by being able to serve the North American market with both lighter wall, spirally welded pipe produced in Mobile and heavier wall, longitudinally welded pipe produced in Panama City," said Ingo Reimer, Berg Pipe president and chief executive.
Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners is a longtime customer of the firm, having contracted with the company before in 2009, 2007 and 2006, according to Berg''s website.
The ET Rover pipeline will carry natural gas from the Marcellus and Utica shale formations in the Northeast United States to the multiple markets in the central U.S., the company said.
Berg Spiral Pipe opened a $96 million steel mill in the Plateau neighborhood north of downtown Mobile in 2008.
