- PipeTracer® - This app enables immediate access to the pipe history, technical specifications and running guidelines of Tenaris products in real time. This removes the need for manual counting or reporting at the well site, improving accuracy, streamlining operations and increasing safety through less pipe handling. Pipe lengths can also be immediately synchronized with well tally software.
- Digital Marketplace – Order directly from Tenaris’s inventory for standard applications. Customers can browse Tenaris products, request a quote, place and track orders, and retrieve documents through a fast and simple process. This is available for USA, Colombia, Mexico and Argentina.
- OCTG datasheets – A new section on Tenaris’s website devoted to product specifications. Customers can compare threads and quickly identify their product needs by application, pipe attributes or drift.
- APIs for integration –Tenaris is implementing Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to facilitate digital integration between its customers and Tenaris systems, enabling a seamless interaction and information exchange.
We are also responding to the need for safer field service solutions arising due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through the deployment of certified field services teams to rig sites, customers receive onsite technical running assistance to support customer well integrity. Preventive measures set in place due to COVID-19, however, have limited the capacity of on-site assistance in some cases and we are now providing remote field service assistance.
