Sooner Inc. is proud to support a major new agreement that will help grow geothermal energy across the United States.
Vallourec, a global maker of premium tubular products, and Fervo Energy, a leader in next-generation geothermal power, have announced a five-year supply agreement worth up to $800 million. Under this deal, Vallourec will provide U.S.-made tubular products and VAM® connections to Fervo, with Sooner Inc. serving as the distribution partner.
This partnership creates a strong, domestic supply chain for geothermal well construction and supports American manufacturing and clean energy growth.
A Supply Chain Built for Performance, Not Shortcuts
This agreement ensures that geothermal tubular products are designed, manufactured, tested, and delivered within the United States. Sooner Inc. will manage the flow of critical OCTG from production to the field, supporting drilling programs that demand precision and durability under extreme temperature conditions.
“This isn’t just about moving pipe,” said Faisal Naseem, chief executive officer of Sooner Inc.“Geothermal wells operate in some of the harshest conditions in the energy industry. Our job is to make sure Fervo has exactly the right OCTG in the field, when it’s needed, with no surprises. That level of execution is what keeps projects on schedule and costs under control.”
Supporting Growth with Smart Asset Management
Fervo Energy’s geothermal model is built around repeatable 50‑megawatt units called GeoBlocks™. To scale this model, the company needs dependable access to materials, predictable costs, and strong logistics support.
Sooner plays a key role through asset management, inventory coordination, and distribution of OCTG products. These services reduce delays, lower risk, and help projects move faster from drilling to power generation.
“Sooner is more than a distributor—we are a partner in execution,” said Joe Phillips, president of Sooner Pipe, an entity of Sooner Inc. “Our asset management and logistics capabilities help make sure the right materials are in the right place at the right time, so geothermal projects stay on track. When you’re building geothermal at scale, materials strategy becomes a competitive advantage.
Delivering Reliable, Carbon‑Free Energy
Investment in next‑generation geothermal energy has grown quickly as demand rises for always‑on, carbon‑free power. This is especially important as data centers and electric infrastructure expand across the country.
The new agreement allows Fervo, Vallourec, and Sooner to work closely together, combining advanced engineering, U.S. manufacturing, and field support to meet this growing demand.
Sooner’s experience with OCTG, PVF, and complex energy supply chains makes it a critical link between innovation and real‑world execution.
A Proud Role in the Energy Transition
For Sooner Inc., this agreement highlights a continued commitment to domestic energy, reliable infrastructure, and long‑term partnerships.
“We are proud to support projects that strengthen American manufacturing and build the future of clean energy,” added Mr. Naseem. “This partnership shows what’s possible when strong supply chain planning meets proven asset management and industry expertise.”
As geothermal energy continues to grow in the U.S., Sooner Inc. remains focused on delivering the materials, support, and partnerships needed to power the future.
