CRA’s acquisition of PipeSearch will help drive the digital transformation of the Oil Country Tubular Goods (OCTG) field by providing quality inventory solutions supported by robust data collection and analytics. Both companies, which have partnered together since 2018, will combine their capabilities while continuing as affiliate companies to provide digital value-added services for the tubular industry.
