On Wednesday, the
US Department of Commerce (DOC) announced the final results of its administrative review of the antidumping order on small diameter carbon and alloy seamless standard, line and pressure
pipe from
Romania.
The review covers two companies - ArcelorMittal
Tubular Products Roman S.A. (AMTP) and Canadian Natural Resources Limited (CNRL) - during the period from August 1, 2011 through July 31, 2012.
The DOC calculated a final weighted-average dumping margin of zero (0.00) percent for AMTP. AMTP previously had a dumping duty deposit rate of zero (0.00) percent.
The DOC also determined that CNRL made no sales to unaffiliated customers in the United States during the period of review. As a result, AD duties will not be applied.
Accordingly, effective today, October 23, 2013, the dumping duty deposit rate will remain zero (0.00) percent for AMTP. In addition, the DOC will send instructions to
US Customs and Border Protection to liquidate entries that were made during the period of review.
