American pipe manufacturers suspect the Canadian company of the Russian Evraz in dumping. They have also said that the pipe imports from Canada threaten the national security. Pipe manufactures have called on the authorities to limit imports.
American manufacturers are dissatisfied with the decision of Cheniere Energy to choose Evraz as the main supplier of pipes for the construction of Midship Pipeline. Under the contract Evraz has to supply 105 thousand tons of large diameter pipes. The cost of the contract could exceed $100 million. (Ukrainian metal)
