Tenaris Sees Q4 Revenue Rising Near 10%
The Argentine-Italian pipe maker expects higher volumes and an EBITDA margin near 25% in the fourth quarter of 2026.
Updated on Nov. 7, 2026 in Oil and Gas
Tenaris S.A. projects fourth-quarter 2026 revenue to rise close to 10%, with an EBITDA margin of about 25%. The outlook follows third-quarter sales of $3.1 billion and EBITDA of $756 million.
Why it matters
The projection points to stronger demand for steel pipe used in oil and gas operations, with low inventories and new anti-dumping margins supporting U.S. demand and prices. Qatar LNG-related demand has not yet recovered, leaving that source of demand an open question.
Tenaris reported third-quarter 2026 sales of $3.1 billion, up 4% year over year and 5% sequentially, with EBITDA of $756 million and a 24% margin. The company projects fourth-quarter revenue to rise close to 10%, though pricing outcomes remain uncertain.
The players
Tenaris S.A.
A global manufacturer of steel pipe and tubular products used in oil and gas drilling and production, headquartered in Luxembourg with major operations in Argentina and Italy.
The details
Tenaris attributes the projected fourth-quarter revenue gain to higher volumes, which should also improve absorption and lift the EBITDA margin to about 25%. Third-quarter EBITDA rose 16% from the prior quarter, reflecting the company's operating momentum heading into year-end.

Q4 2026: Projected revenue rise and EBITDA margin expected.
Market Landscape
Tenaris's outlook reflects how U.S. anti-dumping margins on imported steel pipe have helped domestic suppliers hold prices and volumes in the oil and gas sector. The company's results depend on a market where tariff protection and tight inventories continue to shape competition.
For consumers, the outlook signals steady demand for energy infrastructure rather than any direct change in retail pricing. Investors and industry watchers should track whether U.S. pricing firms up as projected, since the forecast leaves pricing uncertain.
The takeaway
Tenaris's projected margin gain depends on volume growth and U.S. pricing, so readers following the oil and gas supply chain should watch whether Qatar LNG-related demand recovers in the coming quarters.
