Flexibility that keeps projects moving

In the oil and gas industry, time is a critical success factor. Delays in the delivery of critical OCTG products can impact drilling schedules, increase operational costs, and put projects at risk. Reliable supply chains and on-time deliveries are therefore far more than a logistical requirement - they are a key factor for for smooth operations and the success of a project.

At voestalpine Tubulars, we combine decades of international project experience with a flexible, customer-focused approach. Having supplied OCTG products to oil and gas producing regions around the world, we understand that project requirements can change on short notice. Close coordination between our production, sales, and logistics teams enables us to respond quickly to new schedules, changed destinations, and individual customer requirements.

Together with our trusted logistics partners, we develop customized multimodal transport solutions that connect our production site in Kindberg with destinations across the globe – including some of the world's most remote oil fields. From production planning and transport coordination to final delivery at the wellsite, every step is carefully managed to ensure reliability, transparency, and efficiency throughout the supply chain.

Our customers benefit from a single point of contact, proactive communication, and a logistics network designed to minimize risks and maximize operational security. Whether facing tight deadlines, challenging transport routes, or unexpected changes, our teams stay flexible and solution-oriented – ensuring that the right products arrive exactly where they are needed, when they are needed.

Managing complexity – delivering reliability

As Harald Spreitzhofer, responsible for Global Logistics at voestalpine Tubulars, explains, many deliveries involve highly demanding requirements, particularly when products must be transported beyond major ports to remote drilling locations.

A recent example is the supply of OCTG products to customers in Egypt. Rather than delivering only to the port of Alexandria, we coordinate the entire logistics chain all the way to oil fields in the Western Desert. Successfully managing such projects depends on strong logistics partners as well as a rigorous qualification and selection process for suppliers and transportation service providers.

Through close collaboration with carefully selected partners and decades of experience in international project business, we ensure that even complex shipments reach their destination reliably, safely, and on time.

Managing these demanding logistics chains is only possible with trusted partners. That's why we apply strict qualification standards when selecting our logistics providers. Together with our carefully chosen partners, we are confident in our ability to meet even the most stringent customer requirements reliably and on time.

From Kindberg to the wellsite – One seamless solution

For Sonja Schnitzler, who coordinates multimodal deliveries, flexibility is a key success factor. Every transport project is different and often involves multiple modes of transports, various service providers, and complex routes. From the mill in Kindberg to remote oil fields, we manage the entire process and serves as a single point of contact for the customer.

This approach reduces complexity and risk while providing greater operational security. Behind the scenes, continuous communication and close coordination with freight partners ensure smooth and on-time delivery. This way, our customers benefit from a reliable, transparent, and seamless logistics solution—while we manage the challenges for them behind the scenes.

A good example is our multimodal delivery concept for customers in Egypt, where we manage the entire transport chain from our mill in Kindberg all the way to oil fields in the Western Desert. For our customers, this means a single point of contact, reduced risk, and greater operational security throughout the process. While they benefit from a seamless and reliable delivery experience, we take care of the complexity behind the scenes.
