Tenaris completes acquisition of significant stake
in Saudi Steel Pipe Company
Luxembourg, January 21, 2019
– Tenaris S.A. (NYSE,
Buenos Aires and Mexico: TS and MTA Italy: TEN) announced today that it closed its previously-announced acquisition from a private
group of 47.79% of the shares of Saudi Steel Pipe Company (“SSP”), a welded steel pipes producer listed on the Saudi
stock market, for a total amount of SAR 529.8 million (approximately US$141 million). SSP’s facilities are located in the
Eastern Province of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and have a manufacturing capacity of 360,000 tons per year. The company, which
started its operations in 1980 and serves energy, industrial and commercial segments, is qualified to supply products with major
national oil companies in the region, including Saudi Aramco.
Upon the closing of the transaction, four Tenaris’s nominees
were appointed as new members of SSP’s board of directors. In addition, SSP’s board of directors appointed Mariano
Armengol, a senior executive with Tenaris, as managing director and chief executive officer of SSP.
Tenaris will begin consolidating SSP’s results as from January
21, 2019.
As a result of the transaction, Tenaris expects to expand its industrial
presence in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, one of the largest markets for OCTG and line pipe products, and the range of products
it supplies to Saudi Aramco. Since its first industrial investment in the Kingdom in 2010, Tenaris has continuously invested to
expand its local operations, supporting the industrialization of the country.
