Strohm (IJmuiden, Netherlands) announces that it has completed fabrication of the first 13 water alternating gas injection thermoplastic composite pipe (TCP) jumpers as part of its Jumper on Demand concept, for ExxonMobil’s Yellowtail field offshore Guyana.

Strohm says that its Jumper on Demand concept allows multiple pipe lengths to be spooled from a delivery reel of continuous pipe and cut into discrete jumper lengths onsite. The individual jumpers are then fabricated in parallel by the company’s Field Service Group, a team of specialists which are trained in pipe handling and termination of TCP.

This approach is said to provide a safe, efficient and flexible method to produce large volumes of jumpers faster.

The first two TCP jumpers were integrated with vertical connections, pressure tested and installed subsea at depths of more than 1,700 meters in early July. The jumpers, installed by spreader bar, were locked in and back seal tested successfully by the client’s installation contractor.

Gavin Leiper, VP of the Americas and Global Field Services Group at Strohm, says, “This first Jumper on Demand campaign for ExxonMobil applies a high-volume fabrication method, proving that on-site fabrication of TCP jumpers has the flexibility to scale up or down as the installation schedule demands. As a manufacturer of disruptive technology, we are especially appreciative of ExxonMobil’s continued confidence and support to deploy TCP on their assets. The campaign was completed on time, under budget and with zero safety incidents or observations, a fact that was globally commended by the client within their organization. We look forward to collaborating again with ExxonMobil during the next fabrication campaign in 2026.”
