INTRODUCTION
A 15,000m2 Onne free zone tubular services facility is fully operational since 2008.
Oiltools Africa Limited, Nigeria’s leading OCTG repair and manufacturing facility has embarked on
this project as part of Nigeria’s aspiration to increase local content to 70% by the year 2010. Over
150 Nigerians will be directly employed in jobs that would otherwise be lost overseas. Operations
will be carried out under Oiltools Africa’s Quality Management System based on the recognised
industry standards of API Q1, ISO 9001:2008 and ISO/TS 29001:2007.
Intel’s free zone yard is the logical choice for this site with its close proximity to the primary logistics
points of the producing operators, extensive infrastructure, security and duty free treatment of
imports.
The main activities that are be supported from the tubular services centre are:
For plain end pipe, sizes 2 3/8” to 20” to O.D. Steel or chrome.

A 30,000m2 plot in the Onne FLT area has been selected. 15,000m2 has been leased with a further
15,000 m2 available for expansion stacking area as required.
A 3,800m2 workshops has nine advanced CNC lathes, bucking machine, phosphating equipment,
sub-arc welders and an X-ray weld inspection device. Overhead cranes in the Conductor Casing and
Plain End threading workshops facilitate for easy handling of tubular and insure high output
capacity.

MACHINE SHOP
The Oiltools Tubular Services Centre has the capability to thread pins on plain end pipe, thread
coupling boxes, make-up and torque couplings to threaded pipes, phosphate connections and
copper plate boxes for chromium materials.
The initial lathe configuration allows a throughput of 35,000 joints per year sustained output and
70,000 joints per year peak (24 hour shift) output. An expanded lathe configuration can be
implemented by doubling the amount of lathes in the plain end workshop to four. In this case, a
sustained output of 60,000 joints per year and a peak output of 120,000 joints per year are
achievable.
Works are carried out under Oiltools Africa’s Quality Management System based on the recognised
industry standards of API and ISO 9001:2008.

qualified QA/QC team to ensure finished goods comply with relevant standards. A QA/QC engineer
is available to provide third party inspection for completion operations at customer and rig
locations.
In addition to the cutting of tubular threads, the shop can manufacture completion accessories
including pup joints and crossovers, along with pre-drilled liner manufactured to customer
requirements with full range of all grade raw materials.
This facility provides rotating make-up and back-out operations up-to 80,000 ft-lbs as well as
thread-lock including drifting.
Facility enables the preheating and stress relief of critical equipment requiring welding fabrication
repair.

Make-up and Break-out Services for the Oil & Gas Industry at Onne Free Zone are as below:
The Comfort CAM contributes to a safer, faster and thus more economical make- up of all kinds of
tubular connections.
The Comfort CAM uses only one set of jaws to cover a wide range of clamping diameters.
To clamp the pipe in the tool within this clamping range is a one-button process on the control
panel.
For the clamping range between 1.00’’ and 7.00’’ another set of jaws is required. Changing jaws
between those size ranges is easy and fast.
Another characteristic of our Comfort CAM is the operating mode of the clamping cylinders.
The cylinder bodies move out of their guidance whereas the pistons stay fixed.
This leads to a much higher resistance against bending forces during make-up compared to
gripping cylinders of conventional units.
Optionally all make-ups can be recorded with the well-established TPC Pro.
(Computer based Torque Process Control).
