Tenaris Acquires Mattr's Pipe Coating Division for $166 Million
12/04/2023
Tenaris has successfully finalized the purchase of Mattr's Pipe Coating Division, previously known as Shawcor, for a total of $182.6 million. This figure includes working capital and $16.9 million in cash.
Announced back on August 14, 2023, the acquisition has now received the green light from regulatory bodies in both Mexico and Norway.
Tenaris now adds nine new facilities located in Canada, Mexico, Norway, Indonesia, the UAE, and the USA, along with multiple mobile concrete plants to its operations. Additionally, it gains access to research and development centers in Canada and Norway, as well as a broad range of intellectual property and products.
Michele Della Briotta, Tenaris's President for Europe, who is set to manage the new Coating Profit Center, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition. He highlighted that it would lead to a portfolio of products, innovative services, and coating technologies. It will provide highly efficient and effective solutions to meet customer needs.
This purchase especially strengthens their ability to offer complete solutions for concrete weight, anti-corrosion, and flow assurance coatings, useful for pipelines on land and at sea.
Tenaris plans to integrate these new facilities, ensuring they meet the company's high global standards in quality, health, safety, and environmental practices.
Mattr's Pipe Coating Division
Mattr's Pipe Coating Division, known as Pipeline Performance Group (PPG), has recently been involved in several significant projects, collectively valued at over $200 million.
These include a commitment from Saipem for a deep-water development project in South America, where PPG will provide thermal insulation and anti-corrosion coating services. The project is expected to commence in the fourth quarter of 2023.
PPG has received two binding letters of intent and two purchase orders for insulation coating services on four Brazilian offshore projects. One of these projects will feature Shawcor’s proprietary ULTRA technology, marking its second deployment on offshore Brazilian pipelines. Coating activities for these projects are anticipated to conclude by the end of 2024.
PPG's Vice President & General Manager - Western Hemisphere South, Fernando Ulecia, emphasized the division's reputation in South America for delivering high-value, technically advanced, and quality pipe coating services. The division's performance on various critical projects in the region showcases their product quality and execution capabilities, especially in challenging environments. Kevin Reizer, Group President of PPG, noted that these commitments indicate a surge in offshore activities, particularly in deep-water projects. PPG's global network of coating and insulation facilities is strategically positioned to support this increase in activities, with project visibility extending well into 2024.
In addition to these developments, Shawcor completed the sale of its Socotherm Americas subsidiary in Argentina to Patagonia Shale Services. Since 1989, Socotherm Americas has been providing external and internal anti-corrosion coating and thermal insulation coating to the Argentine and regional pipeline and oilfield tubular markets

2023 Closes with a Wave of Deals: Canada to Permian Basin

Anticipated Growth: Endeavor Energy's Value Nearing $30 Billion
This summer, J.P. Morgan Securities highlighted Endeavor Energy Resources as the Midland Basin's standout in mergers and acquisitions, suggesting its value might approach $30 billion. Endeavor Energy Resources, a privately-owned entity in Midland focusing solely on its operations, has seen a significant uptick in production. It now boasts a production rate of 331,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boe/d), marking a 25% increase from the previous year.
The rapid growth of natural gas production in the Permian Basin is pushing existing infrastructure to its limits, and additional pipeline projects are on the horizon to meet rising demand, according to East Daley Analytics. Despite ongoing price volatility—marked by repeated declines—demand for expanded energy markets continues to surge.
Dominion Energy has struck a major deal by selling half of its stake in the Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind (CVOW) project to Stonepeak, one of the world’s leading infrastructure investors, for $2.6 billion. While Dominion will retain full control over the project’s development and day-to-day operations, this partnership gives Stonepeak a non-controlling 50% interest.
Landfills are essential to America’s waste management system, yet they face several operational, environmental, and regulatory challenges. With over 2600 active municipal solid waste (MSW) landfills across the country, they occupy an average of more than 600 acres, which is roughly equivalent to 500 football fields. Methane emissions from landfills contribute significantly to global warming, accounting for 15.1% of U.S. methane emissions. As the waste sector is a major contributor to methane emissions, there is a growing emphasis on improved monitoring, reduction technologies, and the integration of renewable natural gas (RNG) solutions to mitigate the impacts of these emissions.
