Episode 57: Texas Steel Conversion

In this episode, Bill and Blake visit Texas Steel Conversion (TSC) to discuss the company’s long history in the tubular and drill-pipe markets. The conversation with Russell Werner and John Hubbard from TSC highlights how the company has expanded across multiple facilities in Southeast Texas, driving new efficiency gains in heat treatment, upsetting, and premium connection manufacturing. The team discusses volatility in both OCTG and drill-pipe pricing, the impact of tariffs on domestic producers, and how customer-driven designs are adapting to longer laterals and higher torque requirements.
