Revenue to the ATI Flat Rolled Products (FRP) segment is expected to be approximately $45 million, with shipments beginning in second quarter 2019 and scheduled to be completed by year-end.
“ATI’s differentiated products will help to facilitate increased energy production in the region,” said Jeff Thompson, Vice President of Sales for FRP. “Our customer chose ATI due to our unbeatable combination of the shortest industry lead times, high quality products, and our unique material properties.
“ATI delivers a highly competitive solution to our customers through the use of differentiated continuous coil instead of discrete plate for this application,” said Mr. Thompson. “The unparalleled reduction power and gauge control of the Hot-Rolling and Processing Facility (HRPF) makes this possible. It also enables tighter tolerances and gauge controls that, combined with ATI’s specialized melt technology, enable us to produce materials with proven corrosion resistance in the demanding subsea oil production environment,” said Mr. Thompson.
ATI’s leading technologies, broad manufacturing capabilities, and operating reliability power our competitive advantage in serving our customers and growing our business in the oil & gas and chemical & hydrocarbon processing markets through highly engineered and differentiated specialty material solutions.
