Oil Country Tubular Goods from India, South Korea, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam: Full Five-Year Reviews Scheduled
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
The U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) has scheduled full five-year sunset reviews under the Tariff Act of 1930 for existing trade remedy orders covering oil country tubular goods (OCTG) — steel pipes and tubes used in oil and gas drilling — imported from five countries: India, South Korea, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam. The reviews will assess whether revoking countervailing duty (CVD) orders against India and Turkey, and antidumping duty (AD) orders against India, South Korea, Turkey, Ukraine, and Vietnam, would likely cause material injury to the U.S. domestic OCTG industry to continue or recur within a reasonably foreseeable timeframe. The ITC has invoked its authority to extend the review period by up to 90 days beyond the standard schedule, indicating the complexity or volume of evidence expected in these proceedings. Stakeholders — including domestic OCTG producers, importers, and foreign exporters — are expected to participate by submitting testimony and evidence as the Commission evaluates whether current duty orders remain necessary to protect the U.S. steel industry.
