A Colombian energy company has recognized Tenaris as one of the best supplier to work with in the hydrocarbon sector. Hocol Petroleum Limited, a subsidiary of the Ecopetrol Group, recently named Tenaris a top supplier of the products and services that contribute to better production yields and higher standards of operation.

Hocol, with extensive exploration and oil operations in the Upper and Middle Magdalena Valleys and the Central Plains regions of Colombia, is one of the nation's key oil producers, with an annual production of 32,307 barrels. It and the other companies that comprise the Ecopetrol Group recognized 23 suppliers for their outstanding performance as business partners - including their transparency and competitiveness - during a ceremony in Bogota late last year.

Award winners were divided into four categories based on the impact and urgency of the goods and services they supplied; Tenaris was recognized in the high-impact, high-urgency category. The award from Hocol affirms the essential role Tenaris's manufacturing center in Cartagena de Indias plays in the development of the Colombian energy industry.

With an annual production of 160,000 tons of casing, tubing, and line pipe, Tenaris's mill in Colombia offers customers a range of products and services that add value before, during, and after field operations.
