The Canadian International Trade Tribunal, pursuant to the provisions of section 42 of the Special Import Measures Act (SIMA), has conducted an inquiry to determine whether the dumping of certain oil and gas well casing, as defined below (the subject goods), has caused injury or retardation, or is threatening to cause injury, as these words are defined in SIMA, and to determine such other matters as the Tribunal is required to determine under that section. The subject goods are defined as:
Oil and gas well casing and green tube casing, made of carbon or alloy steel, welded or seamless, heat‑treated or not heat-treated, regardless of end finish, having an outside diameter from 4 ½” inches to 9 5/8” inches (114.3 mm to 245.2 mm), meeting or supplied to meet American Petroleum Institute (API) specification 5CT or equivalent and/or enhanced proprietary standards, in all grades, originating in or exported from the Republic of Austria, but excluding the following:
- drill pipe
- pup joints
- unattached couplings
- coupling stock
- insulated tubing and vacuum insulated tubing; and
- stainless steel casing containing 10.5 percent or more by weight of chromium
Further to the Tribunal’s inquiry, and following the issuance by the President of the Canada Border Services Agency of a final determination dated August 4, 2026, that the subject goods have been dumped, the Tribunal finds, pursuant to subsection 43(1) of SIMA, that the said dumping has not caused injury and is not threatening to cause injury to the domestic industry.
