Global maker of seamless steel pipes (OCTG) used to drill and produce oil and gas wells.
Global maker of seamless steel pipes (OCTG) used to drill and produce oil and gas wells.
Sells steel pipes for oil and gas wells, with much of the volume under supply agreements that include delivery to rig sites, so demand follows drilling activity rather than steel prices alone. Premium threaded connections, the joints that seal casing in demanding wells, carry higher prices than standard pipe. The Rocca family's Techint group controls it.
In one line: A global steel-tubular maker like a Luxembourg-based U.S. Steel Tubular.
Moat: narrow (scale, process know-how, distribution). Global mill network and premium-connection technology give service/lead-time advantages over regional rivals.
Headquarters: Luxembourg City, Luxembourg · Employees: 24,875
