Chicago, Illinois-based Energex Tube, a division of JMC Steel Group, announced Tuesday that they have agreed to a deal with Tokyo, Japan-based Metal One Corporation, offering semi-premium connections for use in North American oil and gas drilling.

"This agreement brings together two companies that are both focused on better servicing the OCTG market," said Randy Boswell, president of Energex Tube. "With Energex Tube's diversified tubular portfolio combined with Metal One's strong family of connections and well-established technical service network, I envision this as the beginning of a long and prosperous partnership."

Metal One's proprietary connections will be offered in North America by Energex Tube. These connections include, but are not limited to:

  • GEOCONN - A semi-premium casing connection in sizes 4.5" OD through 20" OD, for use in drilling with casing applications and SAGD (steam-assisted gravity drainage), as well as geothermal wells.
  • SUPERMAX - A tubing and casing non-upset connection in sizes 1.900" OD through 4.5" OD, with better clearance and improved work string capability.
"The Metal One connections enhance the value of our products and provide tubing and casing connection solutions for our North American E&P customers," added Boswell. "We are certainly excited about the opportunity to team up with a global company like Metal One and work together to better serve customers."
