PVMR promotes collaboration in providing maintenance and repair services for oil and gas pipelines

On July 30th, 2024 in Ho Chi Minh City, Petroleum Maintenance and Repair Corporation (PVMR) organized a trade and development cooperation conference with international partners to promote collaboration and comprehensive development in the field of inspection, maintenance, and servicing of oil and gas pipelines in Vietnam.

Attending the conference from PVMR were Mr. Nguyen Trung Tri – Chairman of the Board, Mr. Lê Văn Sỹ – General Director, and various specialized departments of PVMR. Also present were South Korean partners including Koins Technology Group; OhLab Laboratory-Pukyong National University; Sunny University; ASR Pipeline Services (Malaysia); and the National Key Laboratory of Digital Control and System Engineering, University of Technology, Ho Chi Minh City (DCSE Lab – HCMUT).

The conference featured prominent regional and global partners specializing in inspection, maintenance, and repair services for oil and gas pipelines. These partners utilize the latest advanced technologies and have the experience and capability to provide comprehensive services for industrial pipelines, with a focus on oil and gas pipelines.

During the conference, PVMR and the partners introduced their capabilities, strengths, and experiences, and discussed potential collaborations to deliver maintenance and repair services for oil and gas pipelines in Vietnam.

Mr. Nguyen Trung Tri – Chairman of the Board of PVMR, stated that the inline inspection (ILI) market for cleaning and inspecting oil and gas pipelines is very dynamic in Vietnam, attracting many international contractors. Forming a joint venture between PVMR and its partners to provide these services is both necessary and timely. However, initial challenges are expected in terms of marketing to clients and meeting potential legal requirements from Vietnam’s Public Procurement Law. In this regard, PVMR, as a local enterprise, will seek ways to assist and support its joint venture partners to enter the market while complying with Vietnamese regulations.

Additionally, the Chairman of the Board highlighted that another challenge lies in technology and technique, given that many pipelines in Vietnam were built quite some time ago and are highly complex. PVMR can deploy experts to help partners quickly understand the situation through surveys and propose suitable solutions. Alongside meeting technical requirements, cost is also a decisive factor. Therefore, the experts from both parties will carefully calculate and optimize construction solutions to reduce costs while ensuring technical standards and maintaining competitive pricing compared to existing contractors in the market.
