Thanks to autonomous robotics, IoT devices, cloud technology and AI, Tenaris is transforming its production system into a connected factory that continuously adjusts and self-optimizes.
Our R&D Centers are located in Campana, Argentina; Toronto, Canada; Veracruz, Mexico, and Orkanger, Norway.
Located at our Tamsa mill in Veracruz, Mexico, this nearly 109,000 sq-ft training area allows customers to witness how Tenaris products perform in different applications, and serves as a space to develop and validate our new product technologies. We also use our in-house rig to train our field service specialists, who work to ensure customers' rig operations are safe and efficient.
In standard operations thread compounds are applied manually in the field, but Dopeless® technology is a dry, multifunctional coating applied at the mill that enhances safety and efficiency at the rig while minimizing the environmental footprint.
Brava Energia has successfully completed its first two casing drilling projects in the Alto do Rodrigues Field, located in Brazil’s Potiguar Basin. The project also marked the first casing drilling operation for production casing in Brazil.
Tenaris is contributing to the ongoing evolution of power generation by providing steel solutions that meet growing performance and sustainability requirements. This commitment was reflected at the Hydrogen Expo 2025, held last week in Piacenza, Italy.
Tenaris has invested $8 million USD ($11 million CAD) to improve safety and advance automation in Canada. This investment, part of an ongoing $72.5 million USD ($100 million CAD) plan for industrial and automation improvements initiated in 2024.
