Tenova Inc. will provide engineering, equipment supply and commissioning services for the electric arc furnace (EAF) revamp at Tenaris’ Koppel steel mill.
The project is part of Tenaris’ investment program aimed at enhancing productivity, reliability and safety across its Pennsylvania operations.
Francesco Memoli, CEO of Tenova Inc., said: “We are proud to continue our collaboration with Tenaris and to contribute to the modernisation of the Koppel facility.
“Projects like this reflect our shared commitment to innovation and to supporting the long-term competitiveness of steel production. Executing the project entirely in the United States - from engineering to manufacturing - will also ensure close coordination with the customer and efficient project delivery.”
A key feature of the revamp is the implementation of an advanced water flow measurement system for the furnace upper shell, with the innovative design providing highly accurate monitoring and control of cooling water circuits. This is set to contribute to greater operational stability and optimised process conditions.
The project follows Tenaris' recent announcement of more than $90 million in planned investments at its Koppel steel shop and seamless pipe facility in Ambridge, Pennsylvania.
