US Oil & Gas Industry by the Numbers
Ask anyone and they’ll tell you that the US’ oil and gas industry is not only impressive, but it plays a significant role in our economy. While we continue to restore the economy to its once flourishing state, there’s no doubt that the influx in oil and gas production, especially over the past decade or so, has directly influenced this revival.

As we continue to drill and extract oil, natural gas and shale gas, there will be a demand to maintain, construct and transport said oil and natural gas. And using steel OCTG and line pipe is one option to ensure a safe and compliant transportation over long distances.
