Tribunal Continues Order—Seamless Carbon or Alloy Steel Oil and Gas Well Casing from China

Ottawa, Ontario, November 28, 2018—The Canadian International Trade Tribunal (the Tribunal) today continued its order made on March 11, 2013, in Expiry Review No. RR-2012-002, concerning the dumping and subsidizing of seamless carbon or alloy steel oil and gas well casing from the People’s Republic of China.

The Tribunal found that the expiry of the order in respect of the goods was likely to result in injury. The Canada Border Services Agency will therefore continue to impose anti-dumping and countervailing duties on these products.

The Tribunal is an independent quasi-judicial body that reports to Parliament through the Minister of Finance. It hears cases on dumped and subsidized imports, safeguard complaints, complaints about federal government procurement and appeals of customs and excise tax rulings. When requested by the federal government, the Tribunal also provides advice on other economic, trade and tariff matters.
