United States Steel Corp. announced plans to relocate the administrative offices of its U. S. Steel Tubular Products, Inc. subsidiary from Dallas, Texas, to the company's corporate headquarters in Pittsburgh, Pa.
"Moving our Tubular Products subsidiary's administrative functions to our corporate headquarters will allow us to realize additional synergies and reduce costs through the elimination of duplicate services," said Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer John H. Goodish. "Overall, this move will make us more efficient."
U. S. Steel Tubular Products will continue to maintain a significant presence in Texas through a sales office in Houston and operating locations in Bellville (Bellville Operations Division), Houston (Tubular Processing Services Division, Tubular Threading and Inspection Services Division, and Wheeling Machine Products), Hughes Springs (Wheeling Machine Products), and Lone Star (Star Tubular Services Division and Texas Operations Division).
"Our Houston office is an important location for sales and service," Goodish added. "Additional sales personnel will relocate to Houston to provide customer support."
The company said the relocation will take place gradually over the next several months. About 80 employees currently work at the Dallas administrative office, however the exact number of employees who will relocate to Pittsburgh and Houston has not yet been determined.
