Bryan, Garnier & Co acts as Sole Financial Advisor to Strohm and its shareholders in the context of the company’s EUR 30m fundraise led by Senco Hydrogen Capital
As the first to bring the Thermoplastic Composite Pipe (TCP) technology to market in 2007, Strohm has the world’s largest track record for TCP.
TCP lowers both the installation and life cycle costs for subsea flowlines, jumpers, and risers, while also reducing the CO2 footprint of pipeline infrastructures by over 50%. This strong, non-corrosive, spoolable, and lightweight technology is available in long lengths, leading to considerable savings in transportation and installation expenses. TCP can be installed using small vessels or subsea pallets, further cutting CO2 emissions, and is 100% recyclable.
Since its commercial debut in 2021, the company has seen remarkable growth in revenues and a substantial increase in opportunities across all business segments.
Bryan, Garnier & Co acts as Sole Financial Advisor to Strohm and its shareholders in the context of the company’s EUR 30m primary fundraise led by Senco Hydrogen Capital.
