Tenaris to Add Staff, Tech at Conroe to Support Bay City Ramp-up
Written by Sandy Williams
Tenaris plans to add 140 employees at its Conroe, Texas, pipe plant to operate the heat treatment and finishing areas of the facility. The additional staff is needed to support processing loads from the Bay City seamless mill as it returns to full capacity.
A $600,000 technology investment is underway at Conroe that will provide the plant with tracking and traceability capabilities as part of the Tenaris Rig Direct model. Rig Direct is a service that integrates the supply of pipes and accessories from the mill to the rig, focusing on process and operational efficiency, the company said.
