Vancouver, Washington-based welded pipe manufacturer Northwest Pipe announced Tuesday plans to expand its Houston, Texas mill in response to growing customer demand for greater product offerings.
The Houston mill has traditionally produced only mechanical tubing products, but began producing green tube for OCTG in 2010. The mill upgrade will build upon the OCTG green tube line and other products being produced on site by adding production of 2 and 3/8" and 2 and 7/8" tubing.
Northwest Pipe's announcement comes less than a week after announcing a product expansion investment at its Atchison, Kansas pipe manufacturing plant.
