In a statement, Danieli said the mill, which has an annual production capacity of 320,000 tons, is running at full production following an earlier slump in oil prices and a slow tube market. The mill is capable of producing pipe with outside diameters ranging from 26.7 to 139.7 mm.

“Acceptance procedures successfully covered all the most important parameters, including productivity, piece rate, outside diameter and wall thickness tolerances, emissions, and tooling consumption,” Danieli said in a statement.
