DANOBATGROUP seeks to boost technological research and innovation in advanced manufacturing processes. Every year the business group recognises the best project in industrial development carried out by students of the TECNUN Master´s Degree in Industrial Engineering, at the Higher School of Engineering of the University of Navarra.

The international company Tubos Reunidos has its new facility ready with DANOBAT machines for the manufacture of threaded pipes and hoses. The project is the result of the joint venture of Tubos Reunidos and Marubeni; the premises total some 31,500 square meters with, amongst others, a workshop where the DANOBAT machines manufacture the threaded pipes.

The new production line will manufacture highly technological pipes, specifically threaded pipes for drilling and production of oil and gas wells. DANOBAT machines finish off the pipes with patented PREMIUM threads, that provide superior performance compared to standard threads. ´They are perfectly suited for work on sites at 4,000 or 5,000 meters depth´, explains Carlos San Martín, director of technology and development of Tubos Reunidos Industrial.

The Oil & Gas sector has always been a highly demanding industrial market. The shortage of available energy resources, increased activity in deep waters, high pressures, low temperatures, extreme conditions, etc,  in addition to the absolute need for high productivity and  reliability make it a challenging industry in a complex world.

DANOBATGROUP has a business area specialized in turnkey solutions for the Oil & Gas industry. The company has been working together with the world´s leading manufacturers such as Aker Solutions, Cameron, Metso, Mogas, NOV, Tenaris, Tpco and Vallourec among others, providing high value-added solutions in the manufacture of parts such as pipes, couplings, high pressure valves, ball valve seats, balls for ball valves, and more.

The latest DANOBAT developments and technologies for Oil & Gas industry will be showcased from 26 to 28 february in booth 1449 of the HOUSTEX exhibition in Texas.

Among other OCTG machining solutions, the DANOBAT TTB horizontal turning machine for pipe threading will be showcased durign the exhibition. DANOBAT TTB´s main distinctive feature is the machine rigidity and optimal chip removal during the turning and threading operations. In addition to the single machine TTB can include loading / unloading systems, positioning channels, internal support & plug devices, specific tooling solutions, machining processes, CNC programming and operator training to suit the customer´s particular application and need.
