Recently, Tenaris's premium threading facility in Aktau, Kazakhstan passed an audit for ISO 9001 certification. This certification aligns the facility with the global Tenaris industrial system and international standards, allowing it to produce and sell goods for both local and foreign customers in Kazakhstan.

The threading facility was introduced to customers in October, and will support Tenaris's long-term agreement with Karachaganak Petroleum Operating (KPO), plus key operator Tengizchevroil (TCO) and will enhance the service offer to other customers operating in major Kazakhstan fields with commercial, technical, field service and supply chain logistics expertise. The $40 million USD, state-of-the-art facility threads seamless pipe and gas-tight TenarisHydril premium connections, and is equipped to apply Dopeless® technology.
