Tenaris begins domestic production of specialized steel grade in Ontario
What happened
Tenaris has started producing its proprietary TN 95EY steel grade domestically in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. This new steel grade is designed for challenging oil and gas applications, including wells requiring high pressure and temperature resistance in formations like Montney and Duvernay. The move expands Tenaris's domestic manufacturing presence in Canada.
Why it matters
The production of TN 95EY responds directly to the evolving needs of Western Canadian energy operators who require specialized pipe for demanding conditions. This local manufacturing strengthens Tenaris's commitment to serving the Canadian energy industry with high-performance materials.
