Electrical/Maintenance Technician

About us

TEDA TPCO America is currently building a state-of-the-art seamless steel pipe manufacturing facility in the heart of the US energy market. We are located on a 410 acre site east of Gregory, Texas.

The facility will be fueled by electricity and natural gas and will utilize Best Available Control Technology and cutting-edge processes that reduce emissions, conserve energy, and decrease environmental impacts. When operational, the TPCO America facility will produce annually approximately 500,000 metric tons of 4″ through 10 3/4″ seamless steel pipe principally for use in the energy industry, both here and abroad. TPCO America is being constructed in two phases.

PHASE ONE – END FINISHING FACILITY: The End Finishing Facility takes plain-ended pipe (green pipe) and turns it into finished casing pipe to be used in oil and gas production. Construction of the End Finishing Facility began in 2011 and was completed in 2014. Shortly afterwards, commissioning and trial production began.

PHASE TWO – ROLLING MILL: The Rolling Mill will use raw steel billets to produce plain end pipe to be fed into the End Finishing Facility. Construction started on the Rolling Mill in mid-2014. As the Rolling Mill begins operations, it will employ an estimated workforce of 300-400 people. Once production ramps up, the operational workforce may ultimately expand to an estimated 600 workers.
