Electric weld casing pipes are key items in OMK’s product range.
We manufacture them at Vyksa Steel Works and our U.S.-based OMK Tube
factory. Each casing is subjected to a 100% automatic ultra-sound control
of the welded seam and the pipe body, and to hydro-testing as well. OMK
occupies 23% of the Russian casing pipes market.

Purpose
Casing pipes are an important part in the construction of oil and gas wells, and in field development. The pipes are lowered into the well, preventing the ground from falling. They are screwed into each other or are connected with a coupling element, forming a column throughout the well’s length.
