AUSTIN – Governor Greg Abbott joined Secretary of Energy Rick Perry and local leaders for the grand opening ceremony of Tenaris’ new $1.8 billion seamless pipe mill in Bay City, Texas. This new mill is one of the most technologically-advanced pipe manufacturing facilities in the world and will have the capacity to create 600,000 tons of steel pipe per day.
“As a leading supplier of pipes, casing and tubing, Tenaris has played a significant role in the oil and gas surge here in Texas,” said Governor Abbott. “With this $1.8 billion investment, Tenaris has not only built the most technologically advanced pipe manufacturing facility in the world, but they have also created hundreds of new jobs in Texas. I thank Tenaris for all they are doing for the Bay City community and for helping keep Texas the most exceptional economy in the country.”
