Contract Provides for the Supply of Pipes Made with CRA Materials and Finished with Premium TenarisHydril Blue Connections and Dopeless Technology

Tenaris and Petrobras signed a contract for the supply of corrosion-resistant alloy (CRA) pipes for offshore operations in Brazil. The contract will last for three years, strengthening the long-term relationship between the two companies. The pipes will be used in pre-salt wells and manufactured in Sweden in partnership with Alleima. Thanks to Dopeless^® technology, the connections are provided RunReady™, eliminating the need for grease application for descent or storage, thus facilitating handling and descent operations.

Tenaris will provide Petrobras with Rig Direct^® services, featuring fully integrated supply chains, from production at the plant to delivery at the port, ready to be executed on the offshore platform, contributing to simpler and more sustainable operations. The contract and service package will be fully managed by the Tenaris team in Brazil.

As part of the Rig Direct^® package, Petrobras will have access to PipeTracer^® technology, a digital solution that allows users to access technical specifications of products, execution manuals, and automated digital count creation, eliminating manual measurements, enhancing accuracy, and simplifying operations. To ensure well integrity, experienced field service specialists from Tenaris will support Petrobras on the platform.

Alleima (formerly Sandvik Materials Technology) is a developer of advanced stainless steels, such as special alloys, titanium, and other high-performance materials. The strategic partnership between Tenaris and Alleima began in 2003 to add value to the oil and gas industry through research, product development, and the manufacturing of special tubular solutions.

Renato Catallini, president of Tenaris in Brazil, states that “this contract confirms our ability to provide a wide range of tubular solutions for our customers operating in very complex environments. Through strategic alliances like this with Alleima, along with our Rig Direct^® service model and the unmatched capabilities of our global supply network, Tenaris has become the most comprehensive supplier of solutions for complex offshore operations not only in Brazil but worldwide.”

“We are very pleased with the signing of this contract and the guarantee of a long-term supply agreement with Petrobras, through our partnership with Tenaris. Our OCTG pipes are perfect for this project, due to their high mechanical strength and excellent [MT1] corrosion resistance,” said Nigel Haworth, president of the Energy Business Unit at Alleima.

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

NASA is offering US$ 750,000 to people from anywhere in the world who solve a problem that could decide survival on Mars: creating food for astronauts without relying on resupply from Earth.

With a wingspan of 152 meters, 76 tires, and a capacity to carry 1,270 tons, the Boeing Pelican was the giant “flying ship” that promised to cross oceans close to the water on an invisible air cushion beneath its wings.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

While countries spend billions to draw water from the sea, a Nobel-winning scientist creates a container-sized machine that extracts up to 1,000 liters per day from dry air and uses ultrasound to release water in minutes, even in the middle of the desert.

After 16 years and almost 600 prototypes, a Chinese inventor unveils the world’s smallest and cheapest manned jet, at just 3.80 meters long and costing US$7.2 thousand in materials.

Belgium will sink 23 giant concrete caissons, each weighing 22,000 tons, in the North Sea to build the world’s first artificial energy island 45 km off the coast, forming offshore electrical walls.

Global oil market loses 1 billion barrels and energy tension increases risk of new global crisis, warns Aramco

Car dealerships avoid these used cars like they’re bombs: famous engines, problematic belts, and expensive transmissions can turn a common purchase into a huge loss in the USA.

Germany installed vertical solar panels on a lake in Bavaria, and the result broke conventional logic: instead of producing energy at midday peak, the plant generates more early in the morning and in the evening, exactly when families turn on appliances and factories are in full swing.

More than 160 million gallons of water, equivalent to 240 Olympic swimming pools, need to be pumped to remove a 100,000-ton nuclear aircraft carrier from dry dock; each of these ships undergoes a complete overhaul costing US$2.8 billion.

With installments starting from R$ 999 per month, a 75 hp 1.0 engine, a 7-inch TFT digital panel, and standard stability control, the Citroën C3 is the cheapest hatchback in Brazil in 2026 and still leaves Kwid, Argo, and Mobi behind in onboard technology.
