Vallourec - North America

Driven by a commitment to safety and excellence, our Youngstown teams continue to shape the future of manufacturing while building on a proud industrial legacy. Thank you to our team members for their dedication and hard work in driving Vallourec - North America forward!

Carbon capture is moving from ambition to execution and projects like Trailblazer prove it. We’re proud to support Tallgrass in advancing CCUS infrastructure with solutions designed for one critical priority: long-term integrity. At Vallourec, we bring: ✔️ VAM® premium connections engineered for demanding CO2 service  ✔️ Field-proven running expertise through VAM® Field Service  ✔️ High-performance tubulars built for safe transport and permanent storage Why does this matter? Because scaling carbon capture depends on infrastructure that can perform safely and reliably for decades – not just today. Trailblazer highlights what’s possible for CO2 transportation and sequestration when advanced materials, operational excellence, and strong teams come together to deliver real progress. “Trailblazer is built for sustained, high-performance operations, and delivering CO2 service at scale requires the right materials, the right connections, and consistent execution,” said Ricardo Mendez, Director of Subsurface Flow Assurance at Tallgrass. “Vallourec’s contributions support our focus on building and operating reliable infrastructure that can perform safely for many years to come.” As CCUS accelerates across North America, collaborations like this will be key to turning decarbonization goals into lasting impact. How do you see infrastructure evolving to support large-scale carbon management? #CCUS #CarbonCapture #EnergyTransition #Decarbonization #Infrastructure #Innovation #Vallourec #Partnerships

𝗖𝗲𝗹𝗲𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗵-𝗔𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗙𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗮𝘁 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲 𝗗𝗮𝘆 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 It was a pleasure attending Bastille Day 2026 alongside our colleagues and members of the local community. This year’s celebration was especially meaningful as it marked the 250th anniversary of the French-American friendship, honoring the historic alliance and enduring cultural ties between France and the United States. A special thank you to Alliance Française de Houston and Consulate General of France in Houston for bringing together business leaders, community members, and cultural enthusiasts to celebrate the spirit of international collaboration. We enjoyed connecting with colleagues, meeting new faces, and celebrating the tradition of solidarity that continues to unite our communities! 🤝

As well designs become increasingly complex, operators need collaborators who can validate performance, solve technical challenges, and deliver reliable results in the field. That work was on full display as we welcomed drilling engineers and team members from across bpx energy operations to our 𝗛𝗼𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗢𝗻𝗲 𝗥&𝗗 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗺𝗺𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝘁, 𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗹𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗳𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀. Following a successful combined load test, the sample was intentionally pushed beyond its rated capacity to demonstrate the connection’s ultimate failure mode, providing critical insight into performance under extreme loading conditions. The group then toured our manufacturing lines and service center, gaining insight into how Vallourec designs, manufactures, and delivers solutions for demanding environments while exchanging ideas on current challenges and future opportunities. Beyond the testing and facility tour, the visit created meaningful opportunities for knowledge sharing and relationship building across our teams. Thank you to the bpx energy team for the visit and productive discussions. We look forward to our collaboration!
