Since the contract award, significant progress has been made across the different manufacturing and coating facilities. To support the construction schedule, additional shifts have been introduced to scale up the delivery of heavy-wall pipes before the cold Canadian winter arrives.
For Van Leeuwen, the project represents another major international pipeline assignment, bringing together technical expertise, strong partnerships and close cooperation across our global network to meet the customer's requirements.
In addition to supplying the pipes and induction bends, Van Leeuwen is responsible for coordinating inland logistics from the port of Vancouver to the coating and bending facilities. With multiple international partners and different production schedules involved, close cooperation is essential.
The project is managed by our Global Projects Organisation teams in Edmonton and Zwijndrecht, combining local project knowledge with international sourcing and project management expertise.
Supplying more than 53,000 tonnes of steel pipes involves much more than manufacturing alone. Each stage, from production and coating to transportation and delivery, requires careful planning and coordination.
The pipes themselves measure 36 inches in diameter, approximately 91 centimetres. Quality control is an important part of the manufacturing process, with the weld seams also inspected from inside the pipes.

Throughout the process, Van Leeuwen worked closely with the customer, selecting the right manufacturing partners and making sure the technical and logistical requirements of the project could be met. Our strong customer relationship, continuous support and proven track record in executing large pipeline projects all contributed to the positive award decision.
In Alberta, Canada, this 200+ km pipeline project is helping deliver natural gas to key industrial users fueling Alberta’s economy; the equivalent of almost two and a half hours of driving at 100 km/h. Once operational, the pipeline will have the capacity to transport more than one billion cubic feet of natural gas per day. With the growing energy needs of Alberta's industrial sector, an important support.
Van Leeuwen Canada was awarded the contract for the supply of approximately 53,000 metric tonnes of 36-inch high-grade longitudinally welded steel pipes, including internal and external coating, as well as more than 300 coated induction bends.
From technical expertise and international sourcing to coating, logistics and delivery, Royal Van Leeuwen is playing an important role in a 200+ km pipeline in Alberta, Canada. With more than 53,000 metric tonnes of steel pipes and over 300 induction bends, the project highlights the scale and complexity of international pipeline projects and the importance of close cooperation throughout the supply process.
