Houston, Texas-based Tejas Tubular Products, a manufacturer of steel tubing to the oil and gas industry, announced plans Thursday to build a factory in Norfolk, Nebraska. Construction on the 350,000-square-foot facility will begin this spring, with a completion date in the third quarter of 2015.
Nucor’s Norfolk mill will supply approximately 150,000 tons of steel for products that include casing, drill pipe, and line pipe for oil and gas production.
