Project Pipeline Supply (PPS), a UK-based provider of pipes, fittings, and specialist equipment for various industries, has reached an agreement to sell and distribute pipeline and piping packages featuring products crafted from the innovative N’GENIUS Series of high-strength austenitic stainless steels.
The agreement marks a crucial milestone for PPS, headquartered in St Helens, as it enables them to offer comprehensive packages of products manufactured using the N’GENIUS Series. This development addresses a critical aspect of the supply chain for major projects worldwide, particularly in sectors like offshore oil and gas, renewables, and defense.
The N’GENIUS Series, comprising a wide array of grades, presents a suite of new high-performance materials that outperform conventional austenitic stainless steels, providing a cost-effective alternative to pricier nickel alloys and high-alloy stainless steels.
Featuring exceptional strength and corrosion resistance, coupled with remarkable ductility and toughness across ambient, sub-zero, and cryogenic temperatures, the N’GENIUS Series emerges as the ideal choice for pipeline and piping systems across diverse sectors, including energy, chemical, petrochemical, hydrogen, and LNG industries, among others.
Manufacturing Procedure Qualification Tests are currently underway by European-based stainless steel producers to offer N’GENIUS grades in various product forms, enhancing the accessibility of these advanced materials to a broader market.
Dr. Ces Roscoe, CEO of N’GENIUS Materials Technology, emphasized the versatility and compatibility of the N’GENIUS Series, highlighting its potential to streamline material specifications across engineering projects.
PPS’s Managing Director, Mr. David Toone, echoed Dr. Roscoe’s sentiments, underlining the significant impact of N’GENIUS materials in enabling systems to function effectively in extreme environments, particularly in ultra-deep waters. The partnership between PPS and N’GENIUS promises to provide expert solutions to various projects, with a particular focus on the burgeoning hydrogen transport and storage sector.
