 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks Relating to Our Industry </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Sales and profitability may fall as a result of downturns in the international price of oil and gas and other circumstances affecting the oil and gas
industry. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are a global steel pipe manufacturer with a strong focus on manufacturing products and related services for the oil and gas
industry. The oil and gas industry is a major consumer of steel pipe products worldwide, particularly for products manufactured under high quality standards and demanding specifications. Demand for steel pipe products from the oil and gas industry
has historically been volatile and depends primarily upon the number of oil and natural gas wells being drilled, completed and reworked, and the depth and drilling conditions of these wells. The level of exploration, development and production
activities of, and the corresponding capital spending by, oil and gas companies, including national oil companies, depends primarily on current and expected future prices of oil and natural gas and is sensitive to the industry&#146;s view of future
economic growth and the resulting impact on demand for oil and natural gas. Several factors, such as the supply and demand for oil and gas, and political and global economic conditions, affect these prices. When the price of oil and gas falls, oil
and gas companies generally reduce spending on production and exploration activities and, accordingly, make fewer purchases of steel pipe products. Other circumstances &#150; such as geopolitical events and hostilities in the Middle East and
elsewhere &#150; may also affect drilling activity and, as a result, cause steel pipe consumption to decline, and thus have a material impact on our revenues, profitability and financial condition. For example, the level of drilling activity and the
investment by oil and gas companies declined in 2016 for the second consecutive year as they continued to be severely affected by the strong decline in prices of oil and natural gas. Several factors, such as the supply and demand for oil and gas,
and political and global economic conditions, affect, and may continue to affect, these prices; accordingly oil and gas companies may cut their investment plans and consequently, demand for our products could decline. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our industry is cyclical and fluctuations in industry inventory levels may adversely affect our sales and revenues. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Inventory levels of steel pipe in the oil and gas industry can vary significantly from period to period and from region to region. These fluctuations can
affect demand for our products. During periods of high demand, industry participants increase the production of pipe products and customers accumulate inventory. Conversely, during periods of low investment in drilling and other activities,
customers draw from existing inventory. Particularly, when oil and gas prices fall, as happened over the last two to three years, oil and gas companies are generally expected to hold or reduce purchases of additional steel pipe products. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Competition in the global market for steel pipe products may cause us to lose market share and hurt our sales and profitability. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The global market for steel pipe products is highly competitive, with the primary competitive factors being price, quality, service and technology. We compete
in most markets outside North America primarily against a limited number of manufacturers of premium-quality steel pipe products. In the United States and Canada, we compete against a wide range of local and foreign producers. In recent years,
substantial investments have been made, especially in China, to increase production capacity of seamless steel pipe products. New production capacity continues to be installed and there is significant excess production capacity, particularly for
&#147;commodity&#148; or standard product grades. Capacity for the production of more specialized product grades is also increasing. In addition, there is an increased risk of unfairly traded steel pipe imports in markets in which Tenaris produces
and sells its products. In August 2014, the United States imposed anti-dumping duties on OCTG imports from various countries, including South Korea which received duties between 10% and 16%. Despite the duties imposed, imports from South Korea
continued at a very high level for several months, and in September 2015 the domestic producers in the United States requested an annual review of South Korea&#146;s exports. At the same time South Korean producers presented an appeal which resulted
in a reduction in the preliminary duties to a range of 5% to 8%. However, in April 2017 the Department of Commerce set the final duties in a range of 14% to 25% for all the South Korean producers except one that received duties of approximately 3%.
Similarly, in Canada, the Canada Border Services Agency introduced anti-dumping duties on OCTG imports from South Korea and other countries in March 2015. However, despite the application of antidumping duties, we can give no assurance about the
effectiveness of these actions. Additionally, the high cost and long lead times required to develop the most complex projects, particularly deepwater and oil sands projects, is leading to a slowdown in the sanctioning of new developments in a
context of low and more volatile oil prices, consequently affecting the level of product differentiation. The competitive environment, therefore, is expected to remain intense in the coming years and effective competitive differentiation will be a
key success factor for Tenaris. We may not continue to compete effectively against existing or potential producers and preserve our current shares of geographic or product markets, and increased competition may have a material impact on the pricing
of our products and services, which could in turn adversely affect our revenues, profitability and financial condition. See Item&nbsp;4.B. &#147;Information on the Company &#150; Business Overview &#150; Competition.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Increases in the cost of raw materials, energy and other costs, limitations or disruptions to the supply of raw materials and energy, and price
mismatches between raw materials and our products may hurt our profitability. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The manufacture of seamless steel pipe products requires substantial
amounts of steelmaking raw materials and energy; welded steel pipe products, in turn, are processed from steel coils and plates. The availability and pricing of a significant portion of the raw materials and energy we require are subject to supply
and demand conditions, which can be volatile, and to government regulation, which can affect continuity of supply and prices. In addition, disruptions, restrictions or limited availability of energy resources in markets where we have significant
operations could lead to higher costs of production and eventually to production cutbacks at our facilities in such markets. For example, shortages of energy and natural gas in Argentina and the resulting supply restrictions imposed by the
government could lead to production cutbacks at our facilities in Argentina. Similarly, in Mexico, existing constraints in natural gas transportation capacity have led to increased imports of natural gas liquids which, since 2013, resulted in
increased natural gas transportation costs and, thus, higher steel pipe products production costs. See &#147;Risks Relating to Our Business &#150; Adverse economic or political conditions in the countries where we operate or sell our products and
services may decrease our sales or disrupt our manufacturing operations, thereby adversely affecting our revenues, profitability and financial condition.&#148; At any given time, we may be unable to obtain an adequate supply of critical raw
materials with price and other terms acceptable to us. The availability and prices of raw materials may also be negatively affected by new laws and regulations, including import controls, allocation by suppliers, interruptions in production,
accidents or natural disasters, changes in exchange </P>

rates, worldwide price fluctuations, and the availability and cost of transportation. Moreover, we are dependent on a few suppliers for a significant portion of our requirements for steel coils
at our welded pipe operations in North America and the loss of any of these suppliers could result in increased production costs, production cutbacks and reduced competitiveness at these operations. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We may not be able to recover increased costs of raw materials and energy through increased selling prices on our products, and limited availability could
force us to curtail production, which could adversely affect our sales and profitability. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Our results of operations and financial conditions could
be adversely affected by low levels of capacity utilization. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Like other manufacturers of steel-related products, we have fixed and semi-fixed
costs (e.g., labor and other operating and maintenance costs) that cannot adjust rapidly to fluctuations in product demand. If demand for our products falls significantly, these costs may adversely affect our profitability and financial condition.
For example, starting in the beginning of 2015, we have implemented temporary suspensions of certain of our operations, mostly in the United States and Canada, due to the impact on our business of the sharp decline of oil prices and high levels of
unfairly traded imports of OCTG and line pipe products. Temporary suspensions of operations generally lead to layoffs of employees which may in turn give rise to labor conflicts and impact operations. Moreover, temporary suspensions&#151;such as
those implemented by the Company&#151;may also affect profitability and trigger impairment assessments of assets. For more information regarding suspension of certain operations, see Item&nbsp;4.B. &#147;Information on the Company &#150; Business

our manufacturing operations, thereby adversely affecting our revenues, profitability and financial condition. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are exposed to economic and
political conditions in the countries where we operate or sell our products and services. The economies of these countries are in different stages of social and economic development. Like other companies with worldwide operations, we are exposed to
risks from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and inflation. We are also affected by governmental policies regarding spending and investment, impositions or strengthening of trade restrictions with respect to certain
markets, exchange controls, regulatory and taxation changes, and other adverse political, economic or social developments of the countries in which we operate. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Significant portions of our operations are located in countries with a history of political volatility or instability. As a consequence, our business and
operations have been, and could in the future be, affected from time to time to varying degrees by political, economic and social developments and changes in laws and regulations. These developments and changes may include, among others, the
nationalization, expropriation or forced divestiture of assets; restrictions on production, imports and exports; interruptions in the supply of essential energy inputs; restrictions on the exchange or transfer of currency, repatriation of capital,
or payment of dividends, debt principal or interest, or other contractual obligations; inflation; devaluation; war or other international conflicts; civil unrest and local security concerns, including high incidences of crime and violence involving
drug trafficking organizations that threaten the safe operation of our facilities and operations; direct and indirect price controls; tax increases and changes in the interpretation, application or enforcement of tax laws and other retroactive tax

and transport capacity in Argentina in recent years. Over the course of the last several years, demand for natural gas and electricity has increased substantially, driven by a recovery in economic conditions and low prices in comparison with
alternative fuel sources. This in turn has resulted in shortages of natural gas and electricity to residential and industrial users during periods of high demand. For example, in recent years, our operations in Argentina experienced constraints in
their electricity and natural gas supply requirements on many occasions. If demand for natural gas and electricity increases and a matching increase in natural gas and electricity supply and transport capacity fails to materialize on a timely basis,
our production in Argentina (or that of our main customers and suppliers), could be curtailed, and our sales and revenues could decline. Although we have taken and are taking measures to limit the effect of supply restrictions on our operations in
Argentina, and the Argentine government is making efforts to increase the energy supply in the country, such efforts might not be sufficient to avoid an adverse impact on our production in Argentina and we might not be able to limit the effect of

Venezuela has requested the annullment of both awards as well as the stay of enforcement of the awards in accordance with the ICSID Convention and Arbitration Rules, and some of these requests are pending. Given the current economic and political

related organized crime that Mexico has experienced and may continue to experience. Since 2011, organized criminal activity and violent incidents have remained high and have spread to new regions of the country. The city of Veracruz, where our
facility is located, has experienced several incidents of violence. Although the Mexican government has implemented various security measures and has strengthened its military and police forces, drug-related crime continues to exist in Mexico. Our
business may be materially and adversely affected by these activities, their possible escalation and the violence associated with them. Furthermore, the Mexican national economy tends to reflect changes in the economic and political environment in
the United States, and uncertainties related to tax reform in the United States, including the possible introduction of a border adjustment tax, or changes to the terms of the North American Free Trade Agreement, or NAFTA, both of which have been

($920 million) and Maverick, in 2006 ($229 million). As of December&nbsp;31, 2015, we recorded an impairment charge of $400 million on the goodwill of our welded pipe assets in the United States, reflecting the decline in oil prices, and their
impact on drilling activity and the demand outlook for welded pipe products in the United States. Additionally, as of December&nbsp;31, 2015 we also recorded a $29 million impairment on the carrying value of our investment in Usiminas. If our

suppress preemptive rights in certain cases. Accordingly, the Company&#146;s controlling shareholder may cause its board of directors to approve an issuance of Shares for consideration without preemptive rights, thereby diluting the minority

evaluate, at the time of any rights offering, the costs and potential liabilities associated with the exercise by holders of Shares and ADSs of the preemptive rights for Shares, and any other factors we consider appropriate at the time, and then to
make a decision as to whether to register additional Shares. We may decide not to register any additional Shares, requiring a sale by the Depositary of the holders&#146; rights and a distribution of the proceeds thereof. Should the Depositary not be

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have a solid record of growth through strategic investments and acquisitions. We pursue selective strategic investments and acquisitions as a means to
expand our operations and presence in select markets, enhance our global competitive position and capitalize on potential operational synergies. Our track record with respect to acquisitions of companies is described above (See &#147;History and
Development of the Company&#151;Tenaris&#148;). In addition, we continue to build a new greenfield seamless mill in Bay City, Texas. The new facility will include a state-of-the-art rolling mill as well as finishing and heat treatment lines. We plan
to bring the 600,000 tons per year capacity mill and logistics center into operation in 2017, within a budget of approximately $1.8 billion. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, approximately $1.3 billion had already been invested and an additional $0.2
billion had been committed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Developing high-value products </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have developed an extensive range of high-value products suitable for most of our customers&#146; operations using our network of specialized research and
testing facilities and by investing in our manufacturing facilities. As our customers expand their operations, we seek to supply high-value products that reduce costs and enable them to operate safely in increasingly challenging environments. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Securing inputs for our manufacturing operations </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We seek to secure our existing sources of raw material and energy inputs, and to gain access to new sources of low-cost inputs which can help us maintain or
reduce the cost of manufacturing our core products over the long term. For example, in February 2014, we entered into an agreement with our affiliates Ternium and Tecpetrol International S.A., or Tecpetrol, (a wholly-owned subsidiary of San Faustin,
the controlling shareholder of both Tenaris and Ternium) to build a natural gas-fired combined cycle electric power plant in Mexico for the supply of Tenaris&#146;s and Ternium&#146;s respective Mexican industrial facilities. The new power plant
became fully operational during 2016. For more information on the new power plant, see note 12 c) &#147;<I>Investments in non-consolidated companies &#150; Techgen S.A. de C.V.</I>&#148; to our audited consolidated financial statements included in
this annual report. For more information on the Company&#146;s commitments under the new power plant, see item 5.E. &#147;Operating and Financial Review and Prospects &#150; Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements.&#148; </P>

their deployment worldwide. For many years, we have provided these services, managing customer inventories and directly supplying pipes to their rigs on a just-in-time basis in markets like Mexico and Argentina. Now, in response to changes in market
conditions and the increased focus of customers on reducing costs and improving the efficiency of their operations, we have extended the deployment of our Rig Direct&#153; services throughout North America and in other markets around the world, such
as the North Sea, Romania and Thailand. Through the provision of Rig Direct&#153; services, we seek to enable our customers to optimize their operations, reduce costs and working capital, to concentrate on their core businesses. They are also
intended to differentiate us from our competitors and further strengthen our relationships with our customers worldwide through long-term agreements. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Tubes segment includes the production and sale of both seamless and welded steel tubular products and related services mainly for the oil and gas
industry, particularly OCTG used in drilling operations, and for other industrial applications with production processes that consist in the transformation of steel into tubular products. Business activities included in this segment are mainly
dependent on the oil and gas industry worldwide, as this industry is a major consumer of steel pipe products, particularly OCTG used in drilling activities. Demand for steel pipe products from the oil and gas industry has historically been volatile
and depends primarily upon the number of oil and natural gas wells being drilled, completed and reworked, and the depth and drilling conditions of these wells. Sales are generally made to end users, with exports being done through a centrally
managed global distribution network and domestic sales made through local subsidiaries. Corporate general and administrative expenses have been allocated to the Tubes segment. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Others include all other business activities and operating segments that are not required to be separately reported, including the production and selling of
sucker rods, industrial equipment, coiled tubing, energy and raw materials that exceed internal requirements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For more information on our business

seamless and welded steel casing and tubing, line pipe and various other mechanical and structural steel pipes for different uses. Casing and tubing are also known as oil country tubular goods or OCTG. We manufacture our steel pipe products in a
wide range of specifications, which vary in diameter, length, thickness, finishing, steel grades, coating, threading and coupling. For most complex applications, including high pressure and high temperature applications, seamless steel pipes are
usually specified and, for some standard applications, welded steel pipes can also be used. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Casing</I>. Steel casing is used to sustain the walls of

</TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>North America </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales to
customers in North America accounted for 31% of our sales of tubular products and services in 2016, compared to 39% in 2015 and 48% in 2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have
significant sales and production facilities in each of the United States, Canada and Mexico, where we provide customers with an integrated product and service offering based on local production capabilities supported by our global industrial system.
In the past year, we have extended our integrated product and service model, which we call Rig Direct&#153;, throughout North America. Under Rig Direct&#153;, we manage the whole supply chain from the mill to the rig for customers under long-term
agreements, integrating mill production with customer drilling programs, reducing overall inventory levels and simplifying operational processes. We first introduced the Rig Direct&#153; model to Pemex in Mexico in 1994, and since then we have
supplied them with pipes on a just-in-time basis. At the end of 2016, we supplied more than half of our U.S. and Canadian customers for OCTG products with Rig Direct&#153; services. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales to our oil and gas customers in the United States and Canada are highly sensitive to oil prices and natural gas prices in that region. In the past few
years, the drilling of productive shale gas and tight oil reserves, made possible by new drilling technology, has transformed drilling activity and oil and gas production in the United States and Canada. Following 25 years of declining production,
U.S. crude oil production began to increase in 2009 and has risen significantly, from 5.6&nbsp;million b/d in 2011 to 9.4&nbsp;million b/d in 2015. Production of natural gas liquids, or NGLs, has also increased significantly in the past few years in
North America. This rapid increase in production, however, contributed to an excess of supply in the global oil market and a consequent collapse in the price of oil, as other producers, notably Saudi Arabia, were unwilling to adjust their production
levels to balance the market. Natural gas production has also increased in the United States in four of the last five years, resulting in a reduction in net imports of natural gas into the United States and prices maintaining levels significantly
below natural gas prices in Asia and Europe. In Canada, there has been a similar shift towards drilling of shale gas and tight oil reserves. The drop in oil prices since the second half of 2014, however, led to a drastic reduction in drilling
activity throughout North America until the second half of 2016 when activity began to recover in the United States and Canada based on sharply lower production costs and an improvement in the outlook for oil prices following the decision by OPEC
and other producers to cut production levels temporarily to facilitate market supply and demand rebalancing and reduce accumulated excess inventories. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Demand for, and our sales of, OCTG products in the United States and Canada plummeted in 2015 and 2016, to less than a quarter of the high level reached in
2014, affected by high inventory levels as well as collapsing drilling activity. Going into 2017, demand and sales are recovering strongly as drilling activity recovers and inventory levels have returned to more normal levels. </P>
 <p STYLE="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt ; font-size:8pt">&nbsp;</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman" ALIGN="center">26 </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our sales in the United States are also affected by the level of investment of oil and gas companies in
exploration and production in offshore projects. The blow-out at the Macondo well in the Gulf of Mexico and the subsequent spillage of substantial quantities of oil resulted in a moratorium that halted drilling activity. The drilling moratorium was
lifted in October 2010, when new regulations affecting offshore exploration and development activities were announced. Since then, drilling activity recovered but, with the fall in oil prices, drilling activity has declined and major projects are
being postponed. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Oil and gas drilling in Canada is subject to strong seasonality, with the peak drilling season in Western Canada being during the winter
months when the ground is frozen. During the spring, as the ice melts, drilling activity is severely restricted by the difficulty of moving equipment in muddy terrain. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In Mexico, we have enjoyed a long and mutually beneficial relationship with Pemex, the Mexican state-owned oil company, and one of the world&#146;s largest
crude oil and condensates producers. In 1994, we began supplying Pemex with Rig Direct&#153; services. In January 2012, we renewed our JIT agreement with Pemex for a five-year period. During December 2016 we extended the contract until June 2017
while we negotiate the renewal of the contract. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At the end of 2013, Mexico reformed its constitution to permit increased private and foreign investment
in the energy industry. Under the reforms, foreign and private investors will be allowed to participate in profit and production sharing contracts and licenses and Pemex has been transformed into a state-owned production company without its previous
monopoly on production. A new regulatory framework has been developed and contracts with foreign and private investors are gradually being awarded. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the decline in oil prices, drilling activity in Mexico and demand for our OCTG products has plummeted as the financial condition of Pemex has
deteriorated and the impact of investments from the energy reform process in Mexico have yet to take effect. Drilling activity at Pemex is at historically low levels and recovery is not anticipated before 2018. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>South America </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales to customers in South America
accounted for 26% of our sales of tubular products and services in 2016, compared to 29% in 2015 and 19% in 2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our largest markets in South America
are Argentina and Brazil. We also have significant sales in Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have manufacturing subsidiaries in Argentina, Brazil and
Colombia. Our seamless pipe manufacturing facility in Venezuela was nationalized in 2009. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our sales in South America are sensitive to the international
price of oil and its impact on the drilling activity of participants in the oil and gas sectors, as well as to general economic conditions in these countries. In addition, sales in Argentina, as well as export sales from our manufacturing facilities
in Argentina, are affected by governmental actions and policies, such as the taxation of oil and gas exports, measures affecting gas prices in the domestic market, restrictions on transfers of currency abroad, mandatory repatriation of export
revenues and other matters affecting the investment climate. Sales in Brazil are also affected by governmental actions and policies and their consequences, such as measures relating to the taxation and ownership of oil and gas production activities
and the operations of Petrobras. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A principal component of our marketing strategy in South American markets is the establishment of long-term supply
agreements and Rig Direct&#153; services with local and international oil and gas companies operating in those markets. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In Argentina, we have a
significant share of the market for OCTG products. We have longstanding business relationships with YPF S.A., or YPF, the Argentine state-controlled company, and with other operators in the oil and gas sector. We strengthened our relationship with
YPF in 2013 through a long-term business alliance under which we provide Rig Direct&#153; services with the objective of reducing YPF&#146;s operational costs as it aims to increase production through investments in Argentina&#146;s shale oil and
gas reserves. In spite of the drop in international oil prices, drilling activity was sustained for most of 2015 and 2016 before falling significantly at the end of the year, when drilling in the southern part of the country came to a halt. The
change in the Argentine government that occurred in December 2015 is resulting in significant changes in domestic energy policies, including the gradual normalization of domestic gas and energy prices. The new policies are likely to encourage
investment in the Vaca Muerta shale play, which is considered to be one of the world&#146;s most promising unconventional reserves. However, the gradual liberalization of policies has resulted in a reduction in drilling activity in some of the more
mature plays where the costs of maintaining production levels are high. </P>

(including premium connections) and line pipe products, most of which are produced in our Brazilian welded pipe facility, for both offshore and onshore applications. With the development of Brazil&#146;s deepwater pre-salt complex, our mix of
products sold in Brazil has evolved from one including mainly line pipe for onshore pipeline projects to one which includes large diameter conductor and surface casing and line pipe for use in deepwater applications. Consumption of OCTG products in
Brazil has fallen in the past three years, and is expected to stabilize at the current low level in 2017, as Petrobras continues to reduce its investments in response to budgetary constraints, concentrating on developing its most productive reserves
in the pre-salt fields and halting other investments. Demand for line pipe for pipeline projects has declined to very low levels with only one major project implemented in the past three years. Due to the lack of activity elsewhere in Brazil, our
sales in the local market are currently concentrated on large diameter conductor and surface casing with connectors for the pre-salt and other offshore developments. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In Colombia, we have established a leading position in the market for OCTG products since 2006, following our acquisition of Tubocaribe, a welded pipe
manufacturing facility located in Cartagena. Although the market grew rapidly when oil prices were high as the country encouraged investment in its hydrocarbon industry and opened its national oil company to private investment, drilling activity in
Colombia has been deeply affected by the collapse in oil prices and fell to a very low level in 2016. However, activity has started to recover in 2017 in response to the increase in oil prices. Our principal customer in Colombia is Ecopetrol S.A.,
which we supply with Rig Direct&#153; services. We have recently strengthened our industrial position in Colombia through investing in the installation of modern heat treatment, pipe threading and processing facilities which enables us to serve this
market with more local industrial content and our customers with more efficient Rig Direct&#153; services. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have been present in the Venezuelan OCTG
market for many years and we maintain ongoing business relationships with PDVSA and the joint venture operators in the oil and gas sector. In the past three years, our sales in Venezuela have been negatively affected as PDVSA delayed payments to
suppliers. See Item&nbsp;3.D. &#147;Key Information &#150; Risk Factors &#150; Risks Relating to Our Business &#150; Adverse economic or political conditions in the countries where we operate or sell our products and services may decrease our sales

country market in Europe is Italy. The market for steel pipes in Italy (as in most of the European Union) is affected by general industrial production trends, especially in the mechanical and automotive industry, and by investment in power
generation, petrochemical and oil refining facilities. Sales to the mechanical and automotive industries and for HPI and power generation projects in Italy and the rest of Europe over the past three years have been affected by lower prices
reflecting increased competitive pressures, but volumes have been relatively stable. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In Europe, we also have significant sales to the oil and gas sector,
which has grown in recent years, with exploration activity taking place in new areas such as unconventional shale plays in Eastern Europe and offshore drilling in the Black Sea, the Eastern Mediterranean and the Barents Sea, together with ongoing
investment in the more traditional areas of the North Sea, Romania, Turkey and Russia. Demand from these markets is affected by oil and gas prices in the international markets and their consequent impact on oil and gas drilling activities in these
areas. In addition, U.S. and European sanctions are affecting demand for our premium pipe products in Russia and limited exploration success in unconventional shale plays in Eastern Europe has led international operators to cut back on their
investments in this area. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Middle East and Africa </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales to customers in the Middle East and Africa accounted for 26% of our sales of tubular products and services in 2016, compared to 17% in 2015 and 19% in
2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our sales in the region remain sensitive to international prices of oil and gas and their impact on drilling activities as well as to the
production policies pursued by OPEC, many of whose members are located in this region. In the past few years, oil and gas producing countries in the Middle East, led by Saudi Arabia, have increased investments to develop gas reserves to fuel
regional gas-based industrial development, which have positively affected their consumption of premium OCTG products. Saudi Arabia, in particular, has shown strong growth in sour and high pressure gas field drilling activity. They have also
maintained and, in some cases, increased investments to offset decline and add oil production capacity. In Africa, international oil companies increased investments in exploration and production in offshore projects in 2012 and 2013 but began to
postpone or reduce their investment commitments in 2014 due to the high cost of offshore project developments and a lower success rate in exploration activity. Since 2015, following the oil price collapse, exploration activity has been sharply cut
back and major project commitments have been postponed. The effect on demand has been compounded by the high inventory levels held in the region. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the past three years, uprisings affected drilling activity in countries such as Syria, Libya and Yemen and, in
the case of Libya, the oil and gas industry was effectively shut down in 2011.&nbsp;In addition, in recent years, U.S. and E.U. sanctions have affected production and exports in Iran. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our sales in the Middle East and Africa could be adversely affected by political and other events in the region, such as armed conflicts, terrorist attacks
and social unrest, that could materially impact the operations of companies active in the region&#146;s oil and gas industry. Our sales in the region can also be affected by the levels of inventories held by the principal national oil companies in
the region and their effect on purchasing requirements. For example, Saudi Aramco, after purchasing pipes in excess of its consumption requirements in 2013 and the first half of 2014, subsequently substantially reduced purchases during the second
half of 2014 and throughout 2015, notwithstanding increased drilling activity, as it reduced inventory levels. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Over the past two years, our sales in the
region have been affected by the lack of offshore exploration and development activity in Africa and the impact of increased competitive pressures on prices. In the Middle East, consumption of OCTG products has increased moderately over the past
three years but inventory adjustments impacted demand for these products in 2015. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Asia Pacific </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales to customers in the Asia Pacific accounted for 3% of our sales of tubular products and services in 2016, compared to 4% in 2015 and 4% in 2014. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have a significant presence in the region with local production facilities in Indonesia, China and Japan and, in recent years, we have established service
centers in Australia and Thailand. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales to Indonesia and other markets in South East Asia and Oceania are mainly affected by the level of oil and gas
drilling activity, particularly offshore drilling activity. The collapse in the price of oil has deeply affected drilling activity and our sales throughout the region, where drilling is mainly onshore. In 2016, however, we won a significant
long-term agreement to provide pipes with Rig Direct&#153; services in Thailand which will establish us as a leading supplier in that country over the next years. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our sales in China are concentrated on premium OCTG products used in oil and gas drilling activities. Over the past three years, China has significantly
reduced its imports of OCTG products as local producers compete ferociously in an oversupplied market. We continue, however, to seek new markets in niche applications and in 2016 we opened a components facility for processing pipes for use in
airbags for automotives. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In Japan, our subsidiary, NKKTubes, competes against other domestic producers. The market for steel pipe products in Japan is

equipment of various specifications and for diverse applications, including liquid and gas storage equipment and sales of raw materials that exceed our internal requirements. In January 2017, we sold our electrical conduit pipes business in the
United States. Net sales of other products and services decreased 39% in 2016 compared to 2015, mainly due to lower sales of sucker rods and coiled tubes. </P>

highly competitive. Seamless steel pipe products, which are used extensively in the oil and gas industry particularly for high pressure, high stress and other complex applications, are produced in specialized mills using round steel billets and
specially produced ingots. Welded steel pipe products are produced in mills which process steel coils and plates into steel pipes. Steel companies that manufacture steel coils and other steel products but do not operate specialized seamless steel
mills are generally not competitors in the market for seamless steel pipe products, although they often produce welded steel pipes or sell steel coils and plates used to produce welded steel pipes. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The production of steel pipe products following the stringent requirements of major oil and gas companies
requires the development of specific skills and significant investments in manufacturing facilities. By contrast, steel pipe products for standard applications can be produced in most seamless pipe mills worldwide and sometimes compete with welded
pipe products for such applications including OCTG applications. Welded pipe, however, is not generally considered a satisfactory substitute for seamless steel pipe in high-pressure or high-stress applications. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In recent years, substantial investments have been made, especially in China, to increase production capacity of seamless steel pipe products. Capacity for
the production of more specialized product grades has also increased. With the recent downturn in the price of oil and demand for tubes for oil and gas drilling, the overcapacity in steel pipe production worldwide has become acute, and now extends
beyond commodity grades. The competitive environment has, as a result, become more intense, and we expect that this will continue for some time. Effective competitive differentiation will be a key factor for Tenaris. </P>

technology partnership with Nippon Steel&nbsp;&amp; Sumitomo Metal Corporation, or NSSMC. Prior to the recent collapse in oil prices, Vallourec increased its production capacity through building a new mill in Brazil jointly with NSSMC, which is
aimed primarily at export markets and was commissioned in 2011, and a second seamless pipe rolling mill at its existing facility in Youngstown, Ohio, which began commercial production at the end of 2012. In addition to the construction of the new
Youngstown mill, it has reinforced its positioning in the United States through the acquisition of three tubular businesses from Grant Prideco: Atlas Bradford<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">&reg;</SUP> Premium Threading&nbsp;&amp;
Services, TCA<SUP STYLE="font-size:85%; vertical-align:top">&reg;</SUP> and Tube-Alloy. Vallourec has also strengthened its position in the Middle East through the acquisition of heat treatment and threading facilities in Saudi Arabia in 2011 and,
in 2010, it concluded an agreement with a Chinese seamless steel producer, Tianda Oil Pipe Company, or Tianda, under which it distributes products from Tianda in markets outside China. In early 2016, in response to accumulating losses, Vallourec
announced a $1 billion capital increase, more than half of which was provided by a French government fund and NSSMC, who each agreed to increase their equity participation to 15%. At the same time, an industrial restructuring program was announced
under which Vallourec reduced capacity in Europe, combined its operations in Brazil with that of the new mill held with NSSMC, acquired a majority position in Tianda and bought out the remaining minority interest, and strengthened its cooperation

steel pipe products are manufactured in integrated steelmaking operations using the electric arc furnace route, with the principal raw materials being steel scrap, DRI, HBI, pig iron and ferroalloys. In Argentina, we produce our own DRI from iron
ore using natural gas as a reductant. Our integrated steelmaking operations consume significant quantities of electric energy, a significant portion of which we generate in our own facilities. Our welded steel pipe products are processed from
purchased steel coils and plates. Although the weight of the different steelmaking raw materials and steel, vary among the different production facilities in our industrial system, depending on the specifications of the final products and other
factors, on average steel scrap, pig iron, HBI and DRI represent approximately 20% of our steel pipe products&#146; costs, while steel in the form of billets or coils represents approximately 15%, with direct energy accounting for approximately 5%.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The aforementioned inputs of raw material are subject to price volatility caused by supply, political and economic situations, financial variables and
other unpredictable factors. For further information on price volatility, see Item&nbsp;3.D. &#147;Key Information &#150; Risk Factors &#150; Risks Relating to Our Industry &#150; Increases in the cost of raw materials, energy and other costs,
limitations or disruptions to the supply of raw materials and energy, and price mismatches between raw materials and our products may hurt our profitability.&#148; The costs of steelmaking raw materials and of steel coils and plates increased during
2016 with high levels of volatility. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Steel scrap, pig iron and HBI </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Steel scrap, pig iron and HBI for our steelmaking operations are sourced from local, regional and international sources. In Argentina, we produce our own DRI
and source ferrous scrap domestically through a wholly owned scrap collecting and processing subsidiary. In Italy, we purchase pig iron and ferrous scrap from local and regional markets. In Mexico, we import our pig iron and HBI requirements and
purchase scrap from domestic and international markets. In Romania, we source ferrous scrap from the domestic market. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">International prices for steel
scrap, pig iron and HBI can vary substantially in accordance with supply and demand conditions in the international steel industry. Overall costs for these materials declined slightly in 2016, following the political and economic turmoil in Turkey,
the world&#146;s largest scrap importer. However, beginning of 2016, scrap prices experienced some recovery from the minimum values reached in late 2015, reached a peak in May 2016 and then declined in the second half of 2016. As a reference, prices
for Scrap Shredded FAS U.S. East Coast, published by CRU, averaged $230 per ton in 2015 and $218 per ton in 2016. </P>

in steel production and temporary mill shut down. Iron ore is supplied from Brazil primarily by <I>Vale S.A</I>. Prices showed highly volatility during 2016 and reached a high point towards the end of the year, following the upward trend of the
steel prices. As a reference, prices for Iron Ore IODEX 62% Fe (CFR North China), published by Platts, averaged $56 per metric ton in 2015 and $58 per metric ton in 2016, reaching $80 per metric ton at December 2016. </P>

purchases are made under a supply arrangement pursuant to which the purchase price varies in relation to changes in the cost of production. As a result of their location within a larger production complex operated by the supplier, our operations in
Japan are substantially dependent on these contracts for the supply of raw materials and energy. JFE uses imported iron ore, coal and ferroalloys as principal raw materials for producing steel bars at Keihin. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:10pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In Canada, we purchase these materials from Rio Tinto Fer et Titane, Inc., a Canadian producer of titanium dioxide and high purity iron. We also use steel

requirements for steel coils are supplied by Nucor Steel and ArcelorMittal. Our principal supplier in the United States is Nucor Steel, which has a steel coil manufacturing facility in Hickman, Arkansas, near to our principal welded pipe facility in
the United States. To secure a supply of steel coils for our U.S. facilities, in May 2013 we entered into a long-term purchase agreement with Nucor Steel which is due to expire at the end of 2017. In December 2014 we reached an agreement with Nucor
that temporarily allows us to purchase only the steel volumes that we need. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:10pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In Canada, we have long-term agreements with our main steel suppliers for our
welded pipe operations with prices referenced to market levels in U.S. dollars (i.e., CRU HRC index). These main suppliers are: ArcelorMittal Dofasco, which has steel coil manufacturing facilities in Hamilton, Ontario, and Essar Steel Algoma
(&#147;Essar&#148;), which has steel coil manufacturing facilities in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. In the case of Essar, the contract expired in March 2015 and since then we buy from Essar on a spot basis. </P>

costs for electric energy and natural gas vary from country to country. While in the last few years energy costs showed an upward trend, in 2015 and 2016 costs declined following the collapse in oil prices. However, energy costs in Argentina did not
decline and over the course of the last several years, demand for electricity has increased substantially, resulting in shortages of electricity to residential and industrial users during periods of high demand. Similarly, the cost of natural gas
for industrial use in Argentina increased significantly during the last years driven by increased local demand, changes in governmental policies and higher gas prices. The demand for natural gas continues to outpace supply, therefore supply to
industrial users has often been restricted during the Argentine winter. See Item&nbsp;3.D. &#147;Key Information &#150; Risk Factors &#150; Risks Relating to Our Industry &#150; Increases in the cost of raw materials, energy and other costs,

Ternium, one of the leading steel producers of the Americas with production facilities in Latin America. Ternium is a Luxembourg company controlled by San Faustin and its securities are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE. As of
March&nbsp;31, 2017, the Company held 11.46% of Ternium&#146;s share capital (including treasury shares). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company is a party to a shareholders&#146;
agreement with Techint Holdings S.&agrave;r.l., or Techint Holdings, a wholly owned subsidiary of San Faustin, pursuant to which Techint Holdings will take all actions in its power to cause one of the members of Ternium&#146;s board of directors to
be nominated by the Company and any directors nominated by the Company only be removed pursuant to written instructions by the Company. The Company and Techint Holdings also agreed to cause any vacancies on Ternium&#146;s board of directors to be
filled with new directors nominated by either the Company or Techint Holdings, as applicable. The shareholders&#146; agreement will remain in effect as long as each of the parties holds at least 5% of the shares of Ternium or until it is terminated
by either the Company or Techint Holdings pursuant to its terms. Carlos Condorelli was nominated as a director of Ternium pursuant to this agreement. </P>

acquired 5.0% of the shares with voting rights and 2.5% of the total share capital in Usiminas, a leading Brazilian producer of high quality flat steel products used in the energy, automotive and other industries. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">This acquisition was part of a larger transaction pursuant to which Confab and Ternium and certain of Ternium&#146;s subsidiaries joined Usiminas&#146;
existing control group through the acquisition of ordinary shares representing 27.7% of Usiminas&#146; total voting capital and 13.8% of Usiminas&#146; total share capital. In addition, Confab and Ternium and certain of Ternium&#146;s subsidiaries
entered into an amended and restated Usiminas shareholders&#146; agreement&nbsp;with NSSMC, Mitsubishi, Metal One and Caixa de Previd&ecirc;ncia dos Funcion&aacute;rios do Banco do Brasil&#151;PREVI, an Usiminas employee fund, governing the
parties&#146; rights within the Usiminas control group. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In April and May 2016 Tenaris&#146;s subsidiary Confab subscribed, in the aggregate, to
1.3&nbsp;million preferred shares and 11.5&nbsp;million ordinary shares. The preferred and ordinary shares were issued in June and July 2016, respectively. Consequently, as of December&nbsp;31, 2016 Tenaris owns 36.5&nbsp;million ordinary shares and
1.3&nbsp;million preferred shares of Usiminas, representing 5.2% of Usiminas&#146; total voting capital and 3.1% of Usiminas&#146; total share capital. Of these, 25.0&nbsp;million ordinary shares are subject to the Usiminas shareholders&#146;
agreement, the remaining 12.8&nbsp;million shares are not subject to the shareholders&#146; agreement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the capital increase described above,
Usiminas&#146; control group, holds 541.7&nbsp;million ordinary shares representing approximately 76.8% of Usiminas&#146; voting capital. Of these, 322.7&nbsp;million ordinary shares are subject to the Usiminas shareholders&#146; agreement, and
219.0&nbsp;million ordinary shares are not subject to the shareholders agreement, although during the term of the shareholders&#146; agreement all members of Usiminas&#146; control group are required to vote such shares in accordance with the
control group&#146;s decisions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The rights and obligations of Confab and Ternium and its subsidiaries within the Ternium/Tenaris Group are governed under

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>We are a leading global manufacturer and supplier of steel pipe products and related services for the energy industry and other industries. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We are a leading global manufacturer and supplier of steel pipe products and related services for the world&#146;s energy industry as well as for other
industrial applications. Our customers include most of the world&#146;s leading oil and gas companies as well as engineering companies engaged in constructing oil and gas gathering and processing facilities and power facilities. We operate an
integrated worldwide network of steel pipe manufacturing, research, finishing and service facilities with industrial operations in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa and a direct presence in most major oil and gas markets. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Our main source of revenue is the sale of products and services to the oil and gas industry, and the level of such sales is sensitive to international oil
and gas prices and their impact on drilling activities. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Demand for our products and services from the global oil and gas industry, particularly for
tubular products and services used in drilling operations, represents a substantial majority of our total sales. Our sales, therefore, depend on the condition of the oil and gas industry and our customers&#146; willingness to invest capital in oil
and gas exploration and development as well as in associated downstream processing activities. The level of these expenditures is sensitive to oil and gas prices as well as the oil and gas industry&#146;s view of such prices in the future. Crude oil
prices fell from over $100 per barrel in June 2014 to less than $30 per barrel in February 2016, then rose to above $50 per barrel at the end of 2016. Such price increase was mainly due to an agreement between OPEC and some non-OPEC countries to cut
production in order to accelerate the rebalancing of supply and demand and to reduce excess inventory levels. Natural gas prices (Henry Hub) have also fallen from $4.6 per million BTU in June 2014 to less than $2 per million BTU at the beginning of
2016 and recovered to levels above $3 per million BTU at the end of 2016. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2016, worldwide drilling activity declined 32% compared to the level of
2015. In the United States the rig count in 2016 declined by 48%. In May 2016, approximately 400 rigs were active; however, a subsequent increase in activity resulted in more than 700 active rigs at the beginning of 2017. When compared to 2015, in
Canada the rig count in 2016 declined by 34%, while in the rest of the world, it declined by 18%. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A growing proportion of exploration and production
spending by oil and gas companies has been directed at offshore, deep drilling and non-conventional drilling operations in which high-value tubular products, including special steel grades and premium connections, are usually specified.
Technological advances in drilling techniques and materials are opening up new areas for exploration and development. More complex drilling conditions are expected to continue to demand new and high value products and services in most areas of the
world. However, as a result of the decline in oil prices in 2015 and for much of 2016, the level of investment by oil and gas companies in such complex projects decreased, as some of these projects were cancelled or postponed. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Our business is highly competitive. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The global market
for steel pipes is highly competitive, with the primary competitive factors being price, quality, service and technology. We sell our products in a large number of countries worldwide and compete primarily against European and Japanese producers in
most markets outside North America. In the United States and Canada we compete against a wide range of local and foreign producers. Competition in markets worldwide has been increasing, particularly for products used in standard applications, as
producers in countries like China and Russia increase production capacity and enter export markets. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, there is an increased risk of unfairly-traded steel pipe imports in markets in which we produce and
sell our products. For example, in the United States, South Korean welded pipe producers have gained a relevant market position, despite the application of anti-dumping duties for unfair trading practices. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Our production costs are sensitive to prices of steelmaking raw materials and other steel products. </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We purchase substantial quantities of steelmaking raw materials, including ferrous steel scrap, direct reduced iron (DRI), pig iron, iron ore and ferroalloys,
for use in the production of our seamless pipe products. In addition, we purchase substantial quantities of steel coils and plate for use in the production of our welded pipe products. Our production costs, therefore, are sensitive to prices of
steelmaking raw materials and certain steel products, which reflect supply and demand factors in the global steel industry and in the countries where we have our manufacturing facilities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The costs of steelmaking raw materials and of steel coils and plates increased during 2016. As a reference, prices for hot rolled coils, HRC Midwest USA Mill,
published by CRU, averaged $571 per ton in 2016 and $506 per ton in 2015, with an increase of more than 50% between the beginning and the end of 2016. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Sale of North American Electric Conduit Business to Nucor </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On January&nbsp;20, 2017, we collected $328 million from the sale of our steel electric conduit business in North America, known as Republic Conduit. The after
tax gain from this sale amounted to $90 million and was recorded in the first quarter of 2017. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016 the conduit business was classified as a discontinued operation. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Summary of results </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2016, our net sales declined 38%
compared to 2015, affected by continued adverse market conditions. Sales of Tubes were down 38%, reflecting lower drilling activity in North and South America and in offshore regions worldwide, declines in selling prices and the completion of
shipments for pipeline projects in Brazil and Argentina after the first quarter of the year. EBITDA declined 51% year on year, reflecting lower sales and a reduction in gross margins on lower average selling prices and lower absorption of fixed
costs. Net income amounted to a gain of $59 million in 2016 compared to a loss of $74 million in 2015, which included an impairment charge of $400 million. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In spite of capital expenditures of $787 million, mainly related to the construction of our greenfield project in Bay City, we reached a positive free cash
flow of $77 million in 2016. After dividend payments of $508 million, our net cash position reached $1.4 billion at December&nbsp;31, 2016, compared with $1.8 billion at December&nbsp;31, 2015. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Outlook </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As we enter 2017, a rapid recovery is taking
place in shale drilling activity in the United States and Canada, as oil and gas companies increase investment following two consecutive years of declining expenditures. The recovery is supported by oil prices of around $50/bbl and natural gas
prices (Henry Hub) of around $3 per million BTU, drilling efficiencies and the relatively low cost of drilling materials, equipment and services. In addition, the late 2016 agreement between OPEC and some non-OPEC countries to cut production to
accelerate the rebalancing of supply and demand and reduce excess inventory levels has reinforced confidence that the current level of oil prices can be sustained. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In the rest of the world, exploration and production spending plans are more subdued. In offshore areas, operators have begun to move forward with selected
projects but the overall level of spending is expected to decline for a third successive year as the previous backlog of investments sanctioned prior to 2015 are completed. Onshore spending is expected to be more stable and can be expected to
recover in regions such as Colombia. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We expect our sales to rise steadily through the year based on higher demand from Rig Direct&#153; customers in
North America and a strong backlog of orders for the Eastern Hemisphere. Although prices have begun to rise in North America, increases in our average selling prices will be held back by the prices fixed in our Eastern Hemisphere backlog. Our EBITDA
should rise through the year with margins improving in the second half as a result of better absorption of fixed costs. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;page-break-before:always"></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The preparation of these audited consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with IFRS requires us to make estimates and
assumptions that might affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses. Management evaluates its accounting estimates and assumptions,
including those related to: impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets; assets useful lives; obsolescence of inventory; doubtful accounts and loss contingencies, and revises them when appropriate. Management bases its estimates on
historical experience and on various other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from
other sources. Although management believes that these estimates and assumptions are reasonable, they are based upon information available at the time they are made. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our most critical accounting estimates are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Long-lived assets including identifiable intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash
flows (cash generating units, or CGU). Most of Tenaris&#146;s principal subsidiaries that constitute a CGU have a single main production facility and, accordingly, each such subsidiary represents the lowest level of asset aggregation that generates
largely independent cash inflows. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life, including goodwill, are subject to at least an annual impairment test. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In assessing whether there is any indication that a CGU may be impaired, external and internal sources of information are analyzed. Material facts and
circumstances specifically considered in the analysis usually include the discount rate used in Tenaris&#146;s cash flow projections and the business condition in terms of competitive and economic factors, such as the cost of raw materials, oil and

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">An impairment loss is recognized for the amount by which the asset&#146;s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable
amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of the asset&#146;s value in use and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss is allocated to reduce the carrying amount of the assets of the CGU in the following order: </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;first, to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU; and </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;then, to the other assets of the unit (group of units) pro rata on the basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit
(group of units), considering not to reduce the carrying amount of the asset below the highest of its fair value less cost to sell, its value in use or zero. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The value in use of each CGU is determined on the basis of the present value of net future cash flows which would be generated by such CGU. Tenaris uses cash
flow projections for a five year period with a terminal value calculated based on perpetuity and appropriate discount rates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of calculating
the fair value less costs to sell Tenaris uses the estimated value of future cash flows that a market participant could generate from the corresponding CGU. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Management judgment is required to estimate discounted future cash flows. Actual cash flows and values could vary significantly from the forecasted future
cash flows and related values derived using discounting techniques. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Non-financial assets other than goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for
possible impairment-reversal at each reporting date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2015, we recorded an impairment charge of $400 million on the goodwill of our welded pipe assets
in the United States, reflecting the decline in oil prices and their impact on drilling activity and the demand outlook for welded pipe products in the United States. In 2014, we recorded an impairment charge of $206 million on the value of our
welded pipe assets in Colombia and Canada, reflecting the severe decline in oil prices, and its impact on drilling activity and the demand outlook for welded pipe products in the regions served by these facilities. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company reviews periodically the recoverability of its investment in Usiminas. To determine the recoverable value, the Company estimates the value in use
of the investment by calculating the present value of the expected cash flows. There is a significant interaction among the principal assumptions made in estimating Usiminas&#146; cash flow projections, which include iron ore and steel prices,
foreign exchange and interest rates, Brazilian GDP and steel consumption in the Brazilian market. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2015 and following the conclusion of discussions
with the SEC Staff regarding their comments related to the carrying value of our investment in Usiminas under IFRS as of September&nbsp;30, 2014 and subsequent periods, the Company re-evaluated and revised the assumptions used to calculate the
carrying value of the Usiminas investment at September&nbsp;30, 2014 and wrote down its investment in Usiminas by $161.2 million in 2014. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Additionally,
Usiminas&#146; financial statements as of December&nbsp;31, 2015 described a downgraded economic scenario for the company that caused a significant impact on its financial leverage and cash generation. In addition, KPMG, Usiminas&#146; external
auditors, included in their report on these financial statements an emphasis of matter paragraph which, without qualifying their opinion, indicated the existence of &#147;a material uncertainty that may cast significant doubt about the
Company&#146;s ability to continue as a going concern&#148; as a result of the risk of not achieving an action plan defined by Usiminas&#146; management to equalize its financial obligations with cash generation. Consequently, Tenaris, considering
the guidance of IAS 36, assessed the recoverable value of its investment in Usiminas based on Usiminas ordinary shares average market price for December 2015, and impaired its investment by $29 million. </P>

reviewed at each year end. Estimating useful lives for depreciation is particularly difficult as the service lives of assets are also impacted by maintenance and changes in technology, and our ability to adapt technological innovation to the
existing asset base. In accordance with IAS No.&nbsp;16, <I>Property, Plant and Equipment</I>, the depreciation method, the residual value and the useful life of an asset must be reviewed at least at each financial year-end, and, if expectations
differ from previous estimates, the change must be treated as a change in an accounting estimate. Management&#146;s re-estimation of asset useful lives performed in accordance with IAS 16 (&#147;Property, plant and equipment&#148;) did not
materially affect depreciation expense for 2016. However, if management&#146;s estimates prove incorrect, the carrying value of plant and equipment and its useful lives may be required to be reduced from amounts currently recorded. Any such

Maverick and Hydril groups. Customer relationships acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date, have a finite useful life and are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated
using the straight line method over the expected life of approximately 14 years for Maverick and 10 years for Hydril. In 2015 the Company reviewed the useful life of Prudential&#146;s customer relationships, related to Maverick&#146;s acquisition,
and decided to reduce the remaining amortization period from 5 years to 2 years. As of December 2016 the residual values of Maverick and Hydril customer relationships amount to $308 million and $17 million and the residual useful lives are 4 years

$6,444 million in 2015, reflecting a 24% decline in volumes and an 18% decrease in average selling prices. Sales were negatively affected by the adjustment in oil and gas drilling activity in response to the collapse in oil and gas prices, inventory
adjustments and price declines, together with a decline of shipments to line pipe projects in South America. In North America, our sales decreased 50%, due to the downturn in activity, inventory adjustments and lower prices. In South America, sales
declined 44% due to the downturn in drilling activity in Argentina and Colombia, price declines and the lack of shipments to line pipe projects in Argentina and Brazil following the first quarter sales. In Europe, sales declined 22% due to lower
drilling activity and price declines but sales of industrial products and to hydrocarbon processing industry and power generation customers were maintained at similar levels to those of 2015. In the Middle East and Africa sales declined 4% as
shipments to Middle East customers and sales of offshore line pipe and coating services in Africa increased strongly but sales were affected by price declines and severely reduced offshore drilling activity and inventory adjustments in Africa. In
Asia Pacific, sales were affected by lower drilling activity in the region, principally in Indonesia, price declines, and lower sales of non-OCTG products. </P>

Tubes operating income was due to lower sales and a reduction in gross margin from 32% in 2015 to 27% in 2016. Additionally, our selling, general and administrative expenses, or SG&amp;A, as a percentage of sales increased from 24% in 2015 to 29% in

million in 2015, mainly due to asset impairment charges in our Tubes segment, related to our welded pipe operations in the United States, amounting to $400 million in 2015. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Financial results</B> amounted to a gain of $22 million in 2016, compared to a gain of $15 million in 2015. The increase was due to higher interest income
partially offset by negative other financial results, mostly foreign exchange derivatives contracts results. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Equity in earnings (losses) of
non-consolidated companies</B> generated a gain of $72 million in 2016, compared to a loss of $40 million in 2015. During 2015 we recorded an impairment charge of $29 million on our direct investment in Usiminas. Apart from the impairment result in
2015, these results were mainly derived from our equity investment in Ternium (NYSE:TX). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Net income for the year</B> amounted to $59 million in 2016,
including a gain from discontinued operations of $41 million, compared with a loss of $74 million in 2015, including a gain from discontinued operations of $19 million. Net income from continuing operations amounted to a gain of $17 million in 2016,
which compares with a loss of $94 million in 2015. The loss in 2015 included an impairment charge of $400 million. Results in 2016 and 2015 reflect a challenging operating environment affected by a reduction in drilling activity and in the demand
for OCTG products, deriving in lower shipments and prices, inefficiencies associated with low utilization of production capacity and severance costs to adjust the workforce to the new market conditions. </P>

activity in response to the collapse in oil and gas prices and inventory adjustments taking place particularly in the Middle East and Africa and in the United States. We estimate that demand for OCTG products in 2015 declined 34% when compared to
2014. In North America, sales decreased 45%, mainly due to lower sales in the U.S. onshore and Canada, reflecting a decline in average drilling activity and pricing pressures due to inventory adjustments. In South America, sales remained stable as
higher sales of tubular products for pipeline projects in Brazil and Argentina were offset by lower shipments of OCTG products in the region. In Europe, sales decreased mainly due to a lower level of sales of OCTG and line pipe products in
continental Europe. In the Middle East and Africa, sales decreased mainly due to lower sales in the Middle East reflecting OCTG destocking and lower sales to offshore projects in sub-Saharan Africa. In Asia Pacific sales decreased due to lower
activity in the region.<I> </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Operating income</I> from tubular products and services decreased 93% to $138 million in 2015, from $1,866 million in

Additionally, in 2015 we had severance costs in the Tubes segment to adjust the workforce to current market conditions, which amounted to $164 million. Excluding these non-recurring events, Tubes operating income declined 66%, as it was negatively
affected by a decline in sales of 33% and a decline in operating margins of 10 percentage points, mostly due to industrial inefficiencies associated with low levels of capacity utilization. </P>

the effect of fixed and semi fixed expenses on lower sales (e.g., depreciation and amortization and labor costs). During 2015, SG&amp;A labor costs include $73 million of severance charges related to workforce adjustments to the difficult market

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our financing strategy aims at maintaining adequate financial resources and access to additional liquidity.
During 2016 we generated $864 million of operating cash flow, our capital expenditures amounted to $787 million and we paid dividends amounting to $508 million. At the end of the year we had a net cash position of $1.4 billion, compared to $1.8
billion at the beginning of the year. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We believe that funds from operations, the availability of liquid financial assets and our access to external
borrowing through the financial markets will be sufficient to satisfy our working capital needs, to finance our planned capital spending program, to service our debt in the foreseeable future and to address short-term changes in business conditions.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have a conservative approach to the management of our liquidity, which consists mainly of cash and cash equivalents and other current investments,
comprising cash in banks, liquidity funds and highly liquid short and medium-term securities. These assets are carried at fair market value, or at amortized cost which approximates fair market value. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At December&nbsp;31, 2016, liquid financial assets as a whole (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, other current investments and non-current fixed income
investments held to maturity) were 16% of total assets compared to 19% at the end of 2015. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We hold primarily investments in liquidity funds and variable
or fixed-rate securities from investment grade issuers. We hold our cash and cash equivalents primarily in U.S. dollars and in major financial centers. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, U.S. dollar denominated liquid assets represented 95% of total
liquid financial assets compared to 87% at the end of 2015. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>Fiscal Year Ended December&nbsp;31, 2016, Compared to Fiscal Year Ended

reduction in working capital. During 2016 the reduction in working capital amounted to $348 million, while during 2015 it amounted to $1.4 billion. The main yearly variation was related to a reduction of $245 million in inventories during 2016,
which compares with a reduction in inventory of $936 million in 2015, reflecting the decline in production and shipments. Additionally, during 2016 trade receivables and trade payables decreased $147 million and $60 million respectively, partially
offset by a decrease of $79 million in other liabilities and of $95 million in customer advances. For more information on cash flow disclosures and changes to working capital, see note 27 &#147;Cash flow disclosures&#148; to our audited consolidated
financial statements included in this annual report. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Investing activities </I></P>

billion in 2015, mainly related to the construction of the greenfield seamless mill in Bay City, Texas. Additionally, we reduced our financial investments by $653 million in 2016 compared to an increase of $696 million in 2015. </P>

Oil and Gas Prices and Demand for Steel Pipes from the Global Oil and Gas Industry. </I></B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Sales to the oil and gas industry worldwide represent a high
percentage of our total sales, and demand for steel pipes from the global oil and gas industry is a significant factor affecting the general level of volumes and prices for our products. Downward pressures on oil and gas prices usually result in
lower oil and gas drilling activity and investment throughout the oil and gas industry with consequently lower demand for our steel pipe products and, in some circumstances, upward pressures can result in higher demand from our oil and gas
customers. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Whereas oil prices are similar in most parts of the world because oil is a fully tradable commodity, gas prices are influenced by regional
factors. In North America, where gas production is extensively developed and there is an extensive regional pipeline system, these factors include available gas storage capacity and seasonal weather patterns, particularly winter temperatures in the
United States. Liquefied natural gas, or LNG, prices have traditionally been established in relation to international oil prices, particularly in the largest LNG markets in Asia. However, as the market for LNG becomes more global, LNG prices may
also be set in relation to prices prevailing at regional gas hubs. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">International oil prices depend on diverse factors. On the supply side, major oil- and
gas-producing nations and companies have frequently collaborated to balance the supply (and thus the price) of oil in the international markets. A major vehicle for this collaboration has been OPEC. Many of our customers are state-owned companies in
member countries of OPEC. Another factor that has affected the international price level of oil is the political and socioeconomic conditions of oil-producing countries, such as Libya, Nigeria and Venezuela and the persistence of geo-political and
armed conflicts affecting the Middle East region which is home to a substantial proportion of the world&#146;s known oil reserves. On the demand side, economic conditions and the level of oil inventories in the leading industrial nations of the
world, and more recently China, which constitute the largest oil consuming nations, also play a significant role in oil prices. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A more recent factor
affecting oil and gas prices has been the ability of producers in the United States and Canada to rapidly increase production from their reserves of tight oil and shale gas in response to changes in market conditions. Production from U.S. tight oil
reserves has grown in recent years to represent over 5% of global liquids production, and production from shale gas plays is converting the United States into a net exporter of natural gas and a significant player in the LNG market. </P>

<h5 align="left"><a href="#toc">Table of Contents</a></h5>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following three years of relatively stable oil prices of around $100 per barrel, prices started to decline in the
middle of 2014, once OPEC confirmed at its November 2014 meeting that it would not cut production to balance demand. Prices reached levels below $30 per barrel in January 2016 before recovering to $50 per barrel at the end of the year once OPEC and
other producers agreed to cut production levels for a period of six months to hasten the market rebalancing process. In each of the last three years, global oil supply has exceeded global oil demand leading to an increase in inventories, though this
imbalance was less pronounced in 2016 and is expected to revert in 2017 following the agreement to cut production levels. The collapse in oil prices led oil and gas operators to substantially reduce their exploration and production investments in
2015 and 2016 and this, in turn, resulted in a severe contraction in demand and pressure on pricing for steel pipes used in oil and gas drilling and associated operations. Towards the end of 2016, however, oil and gas operators in North America, who
have been very successful in reducing production costs in their shale plays, began to increase investments in response to more favorable market conditions. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">North American gas prices remained low following the 2008 economic and financial crisis (less than $6&nbsp;per million BTU) and fell to levels below $2 per
million BTU in the 2015-2016 winter heating season, when demand was affected by seasonally warm weather. For several years, production increases, primarily from productive shale gas deposits, have exceeded demand increases, reducing the need for
imports. In 2016, however, as gas-directed drilling activity fell to very low levels, production declined even as demand continued to increase, resulting in a recovery of prices above $3 per million BTU and an increase in drilling activity going
into 2017. Low prices are encouraging investment in gas consuming industrial facilities and switching from coal to gas for electric power production is taking place particularly with the adoption of new regulations which could force the retirement
of older coal-based generating units. Additionally, facilities which had been originally designed to import LNG into the United States are being converted into export facilities to take advantage of low prices to export LNG from the United States.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Drilling activity in the United States and Canada, following several years of high activity, fell sharply through 2015 and the first half of 2016 before
beginning a recovery which has accelerated at the beginning of 2017. Rig counts plunged to less than a quarter of their former level as operators cut back on investments for two consecutive years as their cash flows declined with low oil and gas
prices. At the same time, they reduced drilling costs through increased efficiencies, concentrating drilling on the most productive plays, and negotiated lower supply and service costs. Rig counts are now rapidly recovering and production has
started to rise even with oil prices at half the level of those seen in 2014. In the rest of the world, drilling activity began to decline in the second half of 2014 and has continued to decline steadily during 2015 and 2016. Although drilling
activity in the Middle East has been relatively stable, drilling in Latin America and offshore drilling has declined significantly. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Prior to the most
recent downturn in oil prices, a growing proportion of exploration and production spending by oil and gas companies had been directed at offshore, deep drilling and non-conventional drilling operations in which high-value tubular products, including
special steel grades and premium connections, are usually specified. Technological advances in drilling techniques and materials have opened up new areas for exploration and development. More complex drilling conditions, combined with increased
regulatory pressures and more stringent industry standards following the blow-out of the Macondo well in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, demand new and high value products and services in most areas of the world. However, the high cost and long lead times
required to develop some of these projects, particularly deepwater and oil sands projects, is leading to a slowdown in new developments of such projects in a context of low and more volatile oil prices, consequently affecting the level of product
differentiation. At the same time, the short investment cycles inherent in the development of unconventional shale reserves, and the potential for further efficiency gains, will continue to attract investment interest. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The tables below show the annual average number of active oil and gas drilling rigs, or rig count, in the United States, Canada, International (worldwide
other than the United States and Canada and excluding Iran, Sudan, onshore China, Russia, Syria and up to June 2012 Iraq) and Worldwide, as published by Baker Hughes Inc., for the years indicated and the percentage increase or decrease over the
previous year. Baker Hughes, a leading oil service company, has published its rig counts on a monthly basis since 1975 as a general indicator of activity in the oil and gas sector. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2013, Confab was notified of a lawsuit filed in Brazil by Companhia Sider&uacute;rgica Nacional (CSN) and various entities affiliated with CSN against
Confab and the other entities that acquired a participation in Usiminas&#146; control group in January 2012. The CSN lawsuit alleges that, under applicable Brazilian laws and rules, the acquirers were required to launch a tag-along tender offer to
all non-controlling holders of Usiminas&#146; ordinary shares for a price per share equal to 80% of the price per share paid in such acquisition, or <I>Brazilian reais</I> 28.8, and seeks an order to compel the acquirers to launch an offer at that
price plus interest. If so ordered, the offer would need to be made to 182,609,851 ordinary shares of Usiminas not belonging to Usiminas&#146; control group, and Confab would have a 17.9% share in that offer. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;23, 2013, the first instance court issued its decision finding in favor of Confab and the other defendants and dismissing the CSN lawsuit.
On February&nbsp;8, 2017, the court of appeals upheld the ruling of the first instance court, holding that Confab and the other defendants did not have the obligation to launch a tender offer. CSN has filed a motion for clarification and may still
appeal to the Superior Court of Justice or the Federal Supreme Court. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For more information on the CSN claim in relation to the acquisition of

addition, directors will be jointly and severally liable to the Company, its shareholders or other third parties in the event that the Company, its shareholders or such other third parties suffer a loss due to a breach by any one or more of the
directors of either the Luxembourg Company Law or the Company&#146;s articles of association, provided that the losses are independent and separate from the losses suffered by the Company. A director will be discharged from such joint and several

will not release the directors from liability for any damage caused to the Company by unrevealed acts of mismanagement or unrevealed breaches of Luxembourg Company Law or the Company&#146;s articles of association, nor will it release the directors
from liability for any personal loss of our shareholders independent and separate from the losses suffered by the Company due to a breach either revealed and unrevealed of either the Luxembourg Company Law or the Company&#146;s articles of

to various claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings, including customer claims, in which third parties are seeking payment for alleged damages, reimbursement for losses or indemnity. Some of these claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings
involve highly complex issues, and often these issues are subject to substantial uncertainties. Accordingly, our potential liability with respect to a large portion of such claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings cannot be estimated with
certainty. Management, with the assistance of legal counsel, periodically reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses potential financial exposure. If a potential loss from a claim, lawsuit or proceeding is considered probable and the
amount can be reasonably estimated, a provision is recorded. Accruals for loss contingencies reflect a reasonable estimate of the losses to be incurred based on information available to management as of the date of preparation of the financial
statements, and take into consideration our litigation and settlement strategies. The Company believes that the aggregate provisions recorded for potential losses in its financial statements are adequate based upon available information at the date
of their preparation. However, if management&#146;s estimates prove incorrect, current reserves could be inadequate and Tenaris could incur a charge to earnings which could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial
condition, net worth and cash flows. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Set forth below is a description of Tenaris&#146;s ongoing legal proceedings which may have significant effects on its financial position: </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Tax assessment in Italy </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dalmine, an Italian subsidiary
of Tenaris, received on December&nbsp;24, 2012 a tax assessment from the Italian tax authorities related to allegedly omitted withholding tax on dividend payments made in 2007. The assessment, which was for an estimated amount of EUR295 million
(approximately $310.9 million), comprising principal, interest and penalties, was appealed with the first-instance tax court in Milan. In February 2014, the first-instance tax court issued its decision on this tax assessment, partially reversing the
assessment and lowering the claimed amount to approximately EUR9 million (approximately $9.5 million), including principal, interest and penalties. On October&nbsp;2, 2014, the Italian tax authorities appealed against the second-instance tax court
decision on the 2007 assessment. On June&nbsp;12, 2015, the second-instance tax court accepted Dalmine&#146;s defense arguments and rejected the appeal by the Italian tax authorities, thus reversing the entire 2007 assessment and recognizing that
the dividend payment was exempt from withholding tax. The Italian tax authorities have appealed the second-instance tax court decision before the Supreme Court. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On December&nbsp;24, 2013, Dalmine received a second tax assessment from the Italian tax authorities, based on the same arguments as those in the first
assessment, relating to allegedly omitted withholding tax on dividend payments made in 2008 &#150; the last such distribution made by Dalmine. Dalmine appealed the assessment to the first-instance tax court in Milan. On January&nbsp;27, 2016, the
first-instance tax court rejected Dalmine&#146;s appeal. This first-instance ruling, which held that Dalmine is required to pay an amount of EUR223 million (approximately $235.1 million), including principal interest and penalties, contradicts the
first and second-instance tax court rulings in connection with the 2007 assessment. Dalmine obtained the suspension of the interim payment that would have been due, based on the first-instance decision, through the filing with the tax authorities of
a bank guarantee, and appealed the January 2016 ruling to the second-instance tax court. The second instance tax court hearing has been scheduled for September 25, 2017. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris continues to believe that Dalmine has correctly applied the relevant legal provisions and based on, among other things, the tax court decisions on the
2007 assessment and the opinion of legal counsel, Tenaris believes that it is not probable that the ultimate resolution of either the 2007 or the 2008 tax assessment will result in a material loss. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>CSN claims relating to the January 2012 acquisition of Usiminas&#146; shares </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The CSN lawsuit alleges that, under applicable Brazilian laws and rules, the acquirers were required to launch a tag-along tender offer to all non-controlling
holders of Usiminas&#146; ordinary shares for a price per share equal to 80% of the price per share paid in such acquisition, or BRL28.8, and seeks an order to compel the acquirers to launch an offer at that price plus interest. If so ordered, the
offer would need to be made to 182,609,851 ordinary shares of Usiminas not belonging to Usiminas&#146; control group, and Confab would have a 17.9% share in that offer. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;23, 2013, the first instance court issued its decision finding in favor of Confab and the other defendants and dismissing the CSN lawsuit.
The claimants appealed the first instance court decision to the S&atilde;o Paulo court of appeals. On February&nbsp;8, 2017, the court of appeals issued its decision on the merits and maintained the understanding of the first instance court, holding
that Confab and the other defendants did not have the obligation to launch a tender offer. CSN has already filed a motion for clarification and may still appeal to the Superior Court of Justice or the Federal Supreme Court. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Separately, on November&nbsp;10, 2014, CSN filed a complaint with Brazil&#146;s securities regulator Comiss&atilde;o de Valores Mobili&aacute;rios (CVM) on
the same grounds and with the same purpose as the lawsuit referred to above. In this complaint, CSN sought to reverse a February 2012 decision by the CVM, which had determined that the above mentioned acquisition did not trigger any tender offer
requirement. On December&nbsp;2, 2016, CVM issued its decision on this complaint, reaffirming its previous decision from 2012 and rejecting all the new allegations presented by CSN. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Finally, on December&nbsp;11, 2014, CSN filed a claim with Brazil&#146;s antitrust regulator, Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econ&ocirc;mica
(&#147;CADE&#148;). In its claim, CSN alleged that the antitrust clearance request related to the January 2012 acquisition, which was approved by CADE without restrictions in August 2012, contained a false and deceitful description of the
acquisition aimed at frustrating the minority shareholders&#146; right to a tag-along tender offer, and requested that CADE investigate and reopen the antitrust review of the acquisition and suspend the Company&#146;s voting rights in Usiminas until
the review is completed. On May&nbsp;6, 2015, CADE rejected CSN&#146;s claim. CSN did not appeal the decision and on May&nbsp;19, 2015, CADE finally closed the file. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris continues to believe that all of CSN&#146;s claims and allegations are groundless and without merit, as
confirmed by several opinions of Brazilian legal counsel, the decisions issued by CVM in February 2012 and December 2016, and the first and second instance courts&#146; decisions referred to above. Accordingly, no provision was recorded in these
Consolidated Financial Statements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Veracel Celulose Accident Litigation </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;21, 2007, an accident occurred in the premises of Veracel Celulose S.A. (&#147;Veracel&#148;) in connection with a rupture in one of the
tanks used in an evaporation system manufactured by Confab. The Veracel accident allegedly resulted in material damages to Veracel. Ita&uacute; Seguros S.A. (&#147;Ita&uacute;&#148;), Veracel&#146;s insurer at the time of the Veracel accident,
initiated a lawsuit against Confab seeking reimbursement of damages paid to Veracel in connection with the Veracel accident. Veracel initiated a second lawsuit against Confab seeking reimbursement of the amount paid as an insurance deductible in
connection with the Veracel accident and other amounts not covered by insurance. Ita&uacute; and Veracel claim that the Veracel accident was caused by failures and defects attributable to the evaporation system manufactured by Confab. Confab
believes that the Veracel accident was caused by the improper handling by Veracel&#146;s personnel of the equipment supplied by Confab in violation of Confab&#146;s instructions. The two lawsuits have been consolidated, and are now being considered
by the 6th Civil Court of S&atilde;o Caetano do Sul; however, each lawsuit will be adjudicated through a separate ruling. Both proceedings are currently at the evidentiary stage. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On March&nbsp;10, 2016, a court-appointed expert issued its report on certain technical matters concerning the Veracel accident. Based upon a technical
opinion received from a third-party expert, in August 2016, Confab filed its objections to the expert&#146;s report. Other parties have also filed their observations and/or opinions concerning the expert&#146;s report, which are currently subject to
the court examination. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, the estimated amount of Ita&uacute;&#146;s claim is approximately BRL 74.5&nbsp;million (approximately $22.9 million), and the estimated amount of Veracel&#146;s claim is approximately BRL
47.7&nbsp;million (approximately $14.6 million), for an aggregate amount BRL 122.2&nbsp;million ($37.5 million). The final result of this claim depends largely on the court&#146;s evaluation of technical matters arising from the expert&#146;s
opinion and objections presented by Confab. No provision has been recorded in these Consolidated Financial Statements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Petroamazonas Penalties
</I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On January&nbsp;22, 2016, Petroamazonas (&#147;PAM&#148;), an Ecuadorian state-owned oil company, imposed penalties to the Company&#146;s Uruguayan
subsidiary, Tenaris Global Services S.A. (&#147;TGS&#148;), for its alleged failure to comply with delivery terms under a pipe supply agreement. The penalties amount to approximately $ 22.5&nbsp;million as of the date hereof. Tenaris believes, based
on the advice of counsel, that PAM has no legal basis to impose the penalties and that TGS has meritorious defenses against PAM. However, in light of the prevailing political circumstances in Ecuador, the Company cannot predict the outcome of a
claim against a state-owned company and it is not possible to estimate the amount or range of loss in case of an unfavorable outcome. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Ongoing
investigation </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company has learned that Italian and Swiss authorities are investigating whether certain payments were made from accounts of
entities presumably associated with affiliates of the Company to accounts controlled by an individual allegedly related with officers of Petr&oacute;leo Brasileiro S.A. and whether any such payments were intended to benefit Confab. Any such payments
could violate certain applicable laws, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. The Company had previously reviewed certain of these matters in connection with an investigation by the Brazilian authorities related to &#147;Operation Lava
Jato&#148; and the Audit Committee of the Company&#146;s Board of Directors has engaged external counsel in connection with a review of the alleged payments and related matters. In addition, the Company has voluntarily notified the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission and the U.S. Department of Justice. The Company intends to share the results of this review with the appropriate authorities, and to cooperate with any investigations that may be conducted by such authorities. At this time,
the Company cannot predict the outcome of these matters or estimate the range of potential loss or extent of risk, if any, to the Company&#146;s business that may result from resolution of these matters. </P>

current plans to establish, a formal dividend policy governing the amount and payment of dividends. The amount and payment of dividends has to be determined by a majority vote of shareholders, generally, but not necessarily, based on the
recommendation of the Company&#146;s board of directors. The Company&#146;s controlling shareholder has the discretion to determine the amount and payment of future dividends. All Shares of the Company&#146;s share capital rank <I>pari passu

set forth in Article 2 of its articles of association, is the taking of interests, in any form, in corporations or other business entities, and the administration, management, control and development thereof. The Company is registered under the

extraordinary shareholders&#146; meeting. As of March&nbsp;31, 2017, there were 1,180,536,830 Shares issued. All issued Shares are fully paid. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The

shareholders at the annual general shareholders&#146; meeting, out of funds legally available for such purposes. Under Luxembourg law, claims for dividends will lapse in favor of the Company five years after the date such dividends are declared.
However, we may elect to pay a declared dividend after such period. Declared and unpaid dividends held by the Company for the account of its shareholders do not bear interest. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At the annual general shareholders&#146; meeting, which every shareholder has the right to attend in person or by proxy, shareholders may declare a dividend
or other distribution of funds legally available therefor. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under Article 21 of the Company&#146;s articles of association, the board of directors has the
power to distribute interim dividends out of profits, share premium or any other available reserves, in accordance with applicable law. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As provided by
Article 21 of the Company&#146;s articles of association, dividends or other distributions declared by the general meeting as well as interim dividends or other distributions declared by the board of directors will be distributed at the times and
places determined by the board of directors. The Company will make any and all dividend payments and any other distributions in respect of shares registered in the name of any securities settlement system or operator of such a system or in the name
of any financial institution or other professional depositary of securities or any other depositary, whether in cash, shares or other assets, only to such registered holder, or otherwise in accordance with such registered holder&#146;s instructions,
and, as provided by Article 21 of the Company&#146;s articles of association, that payment shall release the Company from any and all obligations for such payment. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to Luxembourg law, at least 5% of our net profits per year must be allocated to the creation of a legal reserve until such reserve has reached an
amount equal to 10% of our issued share capital. If the legal reserve later falls below the 10% threshold, at least 5% (or such lower amount required to reach the 10% threshold) of net profits again must be allocated toward the reserve. The
Company&#146;s legal reserve represented 10% of its share capital as of December&nbsp;31, 2016. The legal reserve is not available for distribution. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Each Share entitles the holder to one vote at the Company&#146;s general shareholders&#146; meetings. Shareholder action by written consent is not permitted,
but proxy voting is permitted. Notices of general shareholders&#146; meetings are governed by the provisions of Luxembourg law. Pursuant to applicable Luxembourg law, the Company must give notice of the calling of any general shareholders&#146;
meeting at least 30 days prior to the date for which the meeting is being called, by publishing the relevant convening notice in the <I>Recueil &eacute;l&eacute;ctronique des soci&eacute;t&eacute;s et associations</I>, and in a Luxembourg newspaper
and such a media as may reasonably be relied upon for the effective dissemination of information to the public throughout the European Economic Area. In case Shares are listed on a foreign regulated market, notices of general shareholders&#146;
meetings shall also comply with the requirements (including as to content and publicity) and follow the customary practices of such regulated market. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to our articles of association, for as long as the Shares or other securities of the Company are listed on a regulated market within the European
Union (as they currently are), and unless as may otherwise be provided by applicable law, only shareholders holding shares of the Company as of midnight, central European time, on the day that is fourteen days prior to the day of any given general
shareholders&#146; meeting can attend and vote at such meeting. The board of directors may determine other conditions that must be satisfied by shareholders in order to participate in a general shareholders&#146; meeting in person or by proxy,
including with respect to deadlines for submitting supporting documentation to or for the Company. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">No attendance quorum is required at ordinary general
shareholders&#146; meetings, and resolutions may be adopted by a simple majority vote of the Shares represented and voted at the meeting. Unless as may otherwise be provided by applicable Luxembourg law, an extraordinary general shareholders&#146;
meeting may not validly deliberate on proposed amendments to the Company&#146;s articles of association unless a quorum of at least 50% of the issued share capital is represented at the meeting. If a quorum is not reached, such meeting may be
reconvened at a later date with no quorum requirements by means of the appropriate notification procedures described above. In both cases, the Luxembourg Companies Law and the Company&#146;s articles of association require that any resolution of an
extraordinary general shareholders&#146; meeting as to amendments to the Company&#146;s articles of association is adopted by a two-thirds majority votes of the Shares represented at the meeting and voted. If a proposed resolution consists of
changing the Company&#146;s nationality or of increasing the shareholders&#146; commitments, the unanimous consent of all shareholders is required. Directors are elected at ordinary general shareholders&#146; meetings. </P>

and directors are elected for a maximum of one year and may be reappointed or removed by the general shareholders&#146; meeting at any time, with or without cause, by resolution passed by a simple majority vote of the Shares represented and voted at
the meeting. In the case of a vacancy occurring in the Board of Directors, the remaining directors may temporarily fill such vacancy with a temporary director appointed by resolution adopted with the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining
directors; provided that the next general shareholder&#146;s meeting shall be called upon to ratify such appointment. The term of any such temporary director shall expire at the end of the term of office of the director whom such temporary director
replaced. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The next Company&#146;s annual general shareholders&#146; meeting that will consider, among other things, our audited consolidated financial
statements included in this annual report will take place in Luxembourg, on Wednesday May&nbsp;3, 2017 at 9:30 A.M., Luxembourg time. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The rights of the

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Holders of Shares deposited in fungible securities accounts have the same rights and obligations as holders of Shares recorded in the Company&#146;s share
register. However, in order to be able to participate in and vote at shareholders&#146; meetings of the Company, the former must present, prior to the relevant meeting, reasonably satisfactory evidence to the Company as to the number of Shares held
on the applicable record date for such meeting. See section titled &#147;Holders of Shares: procedures for attending and voting at one or both Meetings&#148; in the report of foreign issuer (Rules 13a-16 and 15d-16) on Form 6-K, filed by the Company

important markets for us or in which we have substantial assets have histories of substantial government intervention in currency markets, volatile exchange rates and government-imposed currency controls. These include Argentina, Brazil, Indonesia,
Mexico, Nigeria and Romania. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>Argentina </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">From 2002
through the end of 2015, the Argentine government maintained a &#147;dirty&#148; flotation of the Argentine peso / U.S. dollar exchange rate through frequent interventions in the market. Since December 2015, after a sudden devaluation of the
Argentine peso against the U.S. dollar of approximately 34%, the current administration has been endorsing a floating rate environment with limited government intervention. Argentina often experiences high exchange rate volatility. Between 2011 and
the end of its term in December 2015, the former administration imposed several formal and informal foreign exchange restrictions affecting the free flow of capital, particularly on payments of dividends, imports of goods and services and royalties.
These restrictions changed frequently, driven mainly by the intention of that administration to control the volatility of the Argentine peso/U.S. dollar exchange rate and to try to impede the flight of capital from Argentina. These informal controls
on foreign exchange transactions were ended soon after the current administration took office in December 2015 and the formal controls have been gradually deregulated until being almost completely lifted by January 2017. There are currently no
amount limits for the purchase of foreign currency by Argentine residents (individuals or legal entities) for investment purposes, either locally or abroad. The only remaining requirements for the purchase of foreign currency to make payments of
imports of goods and services, royalties, dividends and foreign financial debt entail compliance with certain Central Bank information systems on foreign indebtedness and direct investments. Repatriation of foreign currency collected by Argentine
residents abroad and conversion thereof into Argentine pesos currently only applies to proceeds from exports of goods and repatriation timeframe has been increased to 10 years from the shipment date irrespective of whether the export is made to
affiliated or unaffiliated companies. Argentine residents are no longer required to repatriate the proceeds from exports of services. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">There can be no
assurance that foreign exchange and capital controls will not be reestablished in the future by the Argentine government, or that additional restrictions of that kind will not be imposed, which could expose Tenaris to the risk of losses arising from
fluctuations in the exchange rate or affect Tenaris&#146;s ability to finance its investments and operations in Argentina or impair Tenaris&#146;s ability to convert and transfer outside Argentina funds generated by Siderca, for example, to fund the
payment of dividends or to undertake investments and other activities that require offshore payments. </P>

termination of such regime on December&nbsp;31, 2010, holding companies incorporated under the 1929 regime (including the Company) were exempt from Luxembourg corporate income tax and Luxembourg withholding tax over dividends distributed to
shareholders. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On January&nbsp;1, 2011, the Company became an ordinary <I>soci&eacute;t&eacute; anonyme</I> and, effective as from that date, the Company
is subject to all applicable Luxembourg taxes, (including, among others, corporate income tax on its worldwide income), and its dividend distributions will generally be subject to Luxembourg withholding tax. However, dividends received by the
Company from subsidiaries in high income tax jurisdictions, as defined under Luxembourg law, will continue to be exempt from corporate income tax in Luxembourg under Luxembourg&#146;s participation exemption. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In light of the then impending termination of Luxembourg&#146;s 1929 holding company regime, in the fourth quarter of 2010, the Company carried out a
multi-step corporate reorganization, which included, among other transactions, the contribution of most of the Company&#146;s assets and liabilities to a wholly-owned, newly-incorporated Luxembourg subsidiary and the restructuring of indirect
holdings in certain subsidiaries. The first phase of the corporate reorganization was completed in December 2010, and resulted in a non-taxable revaluation of the accounting value (under Luxembourg GAAP) of the Company&#146;s assets, in accordance
with the applicable legal provisions. The second phase of the reorganization was completed in 2011. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the completion of the first phase of the
corporate reorganization, and upon its conversion into an ordinary Luxembourg holding company, the Company, according to applicable law, recorded a special reserve in its tax balance sheet. Dividend distributions for the foreseeable future will be
imputed to the special reserve and therefore should not be subject to Luxembourg withholding tax under current Luxembourg law. </P>

income tax laws, and subject to the passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, rules discussed below, if you are a U.S. holder, the gross amount of any distribution we pay out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined for
U.S. federal income tax purposes) is subject to U.S. federal income taxation. If you are a noncorporate U.S. holder, dividends paid to you that constitute qualified dividend income will be taxable to you at the preferential rates applicable to
long-term capital gains provided that you hold Shares or ADSs for more than 60 days during the 121-day period beginning 60 days before the ex-dividend date and meet other holding period requirements. Dividends we pay with respect to the Shares or
ADSs generally will be qualified dividend income but there can be no assurance in this regard. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">You must generally include any Luxembourg tax withheld
from the dividend payment in this gross amount even though you do not in fact receive it. The dividend is taxable to you when you receive it, or, in the case of ADSs, when the depositary receives the dividend, actually or constructively. The
dividend will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally allowed to U.S. corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits, as
determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes, will be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of your basis in the Shares or ADSs and thereafter as capital gain. However, we do not expect to calculate earnings and profits in
accordance with U.S. federal income tax principles. Therefore, you should expect that a distribution will generally be treated as a dividend (as discussed above). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The amount of any dividend paid in foreign currency will equal the U.S. dollar value of the foreign currency received calculated by reference to the exchange
rate in effect on the date the dividend is includible in your income, regardless of whether the foreign currency is converted into U.S. dollars. Generally, any gain or loss resulting from currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the
date you include the dividend payment in income to the date you convert the payment into U.S. dollars will be treated as ordinary income or loss and will not be eligible for the special tax rate applicable to qualified dividend income. The gain or
loss generally will be income or loss from sources within the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Dividends will be income from
sources outside the United States and will, depending on your circumstances, be either &#147;passive&#148; or &#147;general&#148; income for purposes of computing the foreign tax credit allowable to you. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subject to certain limitations, the Luxembourg tax withheld in accordance with the Treaty and paid over to Luxembourg will be creditable or deductible against
your U.S. federal income tax liability. Special rules apply in determining the foreign tax credit limitation with respect to dividends that are subject to the preferential tax rates. To the extent a refund of the tax withheld is available to you
under Luxembourg law or under the Treaty, the amount of tax withheld that is refundable will not be eligible for credit against your U.S. federal income tax liability. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In certain circumstances, if you have held ADSs for less than a specified minimum period during which you are not protected from risk of loss, or are
obligated to make payments related to the dividends, you will not be allowed a foreign tax credit for foreign taxes imposed on dividends that we pay. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The
rules governing the foreign tax credit are complex. You are urged to consult your tax advisors regarding the availability of the foreign tax credit under your particular circumstances. </P>

or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount that you realize and your tax basis, determined in U.S. dollars, in your Shares or ADSs. Capital gain of a noncorporate U.S. holder is
generally taxed at preferential rates where the property is held for more than one year. The gain or loss will generally be income or loss from sources within the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>PFIC rules. </I>Based on the Company&#146;s expected income and assets, we believe that the Shares or ADSs should not be treated as stock of a PFIC for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, but this conclusion is a factual determination that is made annually and thus may be subject to change. If we were to be treated as a PFIC, gain realized on the sale or other disposition of your Shares or ADSs would in
general not be treated as capital gain. Furthermore, if you are a U.S. holder, unless you are permitted to elect and you do elect to be taxed annually on a mark-to-market basis with respect to the Shares or ADSs, upon sale or disposition of your

to file quarterly reports. In addition, the Company&#146;s &#147;insiders&#148; are not subject to the SEC&#146;s rules that prohibit short-swing trading. We prepare quarterly and annual reports containing consolidated financial statements. The
Company&#146;s annual consolidated financial statements are certified by an independent accounting firm. The Company submits quarterly financial information with the SEC on Form 6-K simultaneously with or promptly following the publication of that
information in Luxembourg or any other jurisdiction in which the Company&#146;s securities are listed, and the Company files annual reports on Form 20-F within the time period required by the SEC, which is currently four months from the close of the
fiscal year on December&nbsp;31. These quarterly and annual reports may be reviewed at the SEC&#146;s public reference room. Reports and other information filed electronically with the SEC are also available at the SEC&#146;s Internet website. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our weighted average interest rates before tax (considering hedge accounting), amounted to 1.97% at
December&nbsp;31, 2016 and to 1.52% at December&nbsp;31, 2015. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our financial liabilities (other than trade payables and derivative financial instruments)
consist mainly of bank loans. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016 U.S. dollar denominated financial debt plus debt denominated in other currencies swapped to the U.S. dollar represented 96% of total financial debt. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For further information about our financial debt, please see note 19 &#147;Borrowings&#148; to our audited consolidated financial statements included in this

market interest rates create a degree of risk by affecting the amount of our interest payments. At December&nbsp;31, 2016, we had variable interest rate debt of $20 million and fixed rate debt of $821 million ($790 million of the fixed rate debt are
short-term). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Foreign Exchange Rate Risk </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We
manufacture and sell our products in a number of countries throughout the world and consequently we are exposed to foreign exchange rate risk. Since the Company&#146;s functional currency is the U.S. dollar, the purpose of our foreign currency
hedging program is mainly to reduce the risk caused by changes in the exchange rates of other currencies against the U.S. dollar. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Most of our revenues
are determined or influenced by the U.S. dollar. In addition, most of our costs correspond to steelmaking raw materials and steel coils and plates, also determined or influenced by the U.S. dollar. However, outside the United States, a portion of
our expenses is incurred in foreign currencies (e.g., labor costs). Therefore, when the U.S. dollar weakens in relation to the foreign currencies of the countries where we manufacture our products, the U.S. dollar-reported expenses increase. Had the
U.S. dollar average exchange rate been weaker by 5% against the currencies of the countries where we have labor costs, operating income would have decreased approximately by $45 million in 2016, compared with $64 million in 2015. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our consolidated exposure to currency fluctuations is reviewed on a periodic basis. A number of hedging transactions are performed in order to achieve an
efficient coverage in the absence of operative or natural hedges. Almost all of these transactions are forward exchange rate contracts. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because certain
subsidiaries have functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar, the results of hedging activities as reported in the income statement under IFRS may not reflect entirely management&#146;s assessment of its foreign exchange risk hedging needs.
Also, intercompany balances between our subsidiaries may generate exchange rate results to the extent that their functional currencies differ. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The value
of our financial assets and liabilities is subject to changes arising out of the variation of foreign currency exchange rates. The following table provides a breakdown of our main financial assets and liabilities (including foreign exchange
derivative contracts) that impact our profit and loss as of December&nbsp;31, 2016. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:12pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

in the same period when the offsetting losses and gains on the hedged item are recorded. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized immediately in the income statement. The fair value of our derivative financial instruments
(assets or liabilities) continues to be reflected on the consolidated statement of financial position. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">At December&nbsp;31, 2016, the effective portion

and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting was designed by management to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation and fair presentation of its
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with IFRS. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may
not prevent or detect misstatements or omissions. In addition, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Management conducted its assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting based on the framework in <I>Internal Control&#151;Integrated Framework (2013)&nbsp;</I>issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on this assessment, management has concluded that Tenaris&#146;s internal control over financial reporting, as of December&nbsp;31, 2016, is effective
to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The
effectiveness of Tenaris&#146;s internal control over financial reporting as of December&nbsp;31, 2016 has been audited by PwC Luxembourg, as stated in their report included herein. See &#147;&#151;Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting

such audit fees and authorizes the audit committee to approve any increase or reallocation of such audit fees as may be necessary, appropriate or desirable under the circumstances. The audit committee delegates to its Chairman the authority to
consider and approve, on behalf of the audit committee, additional non-audit services that were not recognized at the time of engagement, which must be reported to the other members of the audit committee at its next meeting. No services outside the

Union&#146;s directive on the exercise of certain shareholders&#146; rights in general meetings of listed companies) and the Company&#146;s articles of association. As a Luxembourg company listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE), the Bolsa
Mexicana de Valores, S.A. de C.V. (the Mexican Stock Exchange), the Bolsa de Comercio de Buenos Aires (the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange) and Borsa Italiana S.p.A. (the Italian Stock Exchange), the Company is required to comply with some, but not all,
of the corporate governance standards of these exchanges. The Company, however, believes that the Company&#146;s corporate governance practices meet, in all material respects, the corporate governance standards that are generally required for

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under NYSE standards, non-management directors must meet at regularly scheduled executive sessions without management present and, if such group includes
directors who are not independent, a meeting should be scheduled once per year including only independent directors. Neither Luxembourg law nor the Company&#146;s articles of association require the holding of such meetings and the Company does not
have a set policy for these meetings. For additional information on board meetings, see Item&nbsp;6.A. &#147;Directors, Senior Management and Employees &#150; Directors and Senior Management &#150; Board of Directors.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, NYSE-listed companies are required to provide a method for interested parties to communicate directly with the non-management directors as a
group. While the Company does not have such a method, it has set up a compliance line for investors and other interested parties to communicate their concerns directly to the members of our audit committee, all of whom are non-management,
independent directors. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Audit committee </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under NYSE
standards, listed U.S. companies are required to have an audit committee composed of independent directors that satisfies the requirements of Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The Company&#146;s articles of association currently require
an audit committee composed of three members, of which at least two must be independent (as defined in the articles of association) and the Company&#146;s audit committee complies with such requirements. In accordance with NYSE standards, the
Company has an audit committee entirely composed of independent directors. For more information on the Company&#146;s audit committee see Item&nbsp;6.C. &#147;Directors, Senior Management and Employees &#150; Board Practices &#150; Audit
Committee.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under NYSE standards, all audit committee members of listed U.S. companies are required to be financially literate or must acquire such
financial knowledge within a reasonable period and at least one of its members shall have experience in accounting or financial administration. In addition, if a member of the audit committee is simultaneously a member of the audit committee of more
than three public companies, and the listed company does not limit the number of audit committees on which its members may serve, then in each case the board must determine whether the simultaneous service would prevent such member from effectively
serving on the listed company&#146;s audit committee and shall publicly disclose its decision. Luxembourg law provisions on audit committee membership require only that at least one member of the committee have competence in accounting or auditing.
The Company&#146;s board of directors has concluded that the membership of the audit committee as a whole has sufficient recent and relevant financial experience to properly discharge its functions. In addition, the audit committee, from time to
time and as it deems necessary, engages persons that meet all of the attributes of a financial expert as consultants. See Item&nbsp;16.A. &#147;Audit Committee Financial Expert.&#148; </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Standards for evaluating director independence </B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under the
NYSE standards, the board is required, on a case by case basis, to express an opinion with regard to the independence or lack of independence of each individual director. Neither Luxembourg law nor the Company&#146;s articles of association requires
the board to express such an opinion. In addition, the definition of &#147;independent&#148; under the NYSE rules differ in some non-material respects from the definition contained in the Company&#146;s articles of association. For information on
our independent directors and the definition of &#147;independent&#148; under our articles of association see Item&nbsp;6.A. &#147;Directors, Senior Management and Employees &#150; Directors and Senior Management &#150; Board of Directors&#148; and
Item&nbsp;6.C. &#147;Directors, Senior Management and Employees &#150; Board Practices &#150; Audit Committee.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Audit committee responsibilities
</B></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the Company&#146;s articles of association, the audit committee shall assist the board of directors in fulfilling its oversight
responsibilities relating to the integrity of its consolidated financial statements and system of internal controls and the independence and performance of the independent auditors. The audit committee is required to review material transactions (as
defined by our articles of association) between the Company or its subsidiaries with related parties and also perform the other duties entrusted to it by the board. The NYSE requires certain matters to be set forth in the audit committee charter of
U.S. listed companies. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company&#146;s audit committee charter provides for many of the responsibilities that are expected from such bodies under the
NYSE standard; however, due to the Company&#146;s equity structure and holding company nature, the charter does not contain all such responsibilities, including provisions related to setting hiring policies for employees or former employees of
independent auditors, discussion of risk assessment and risk management policies, and an annual performance evaluation of the audit committee. However, our audit committee from time to time monitors the effectiveness of the Company&#146;s risk
management systems. For more information on our audit committee see Item&nbsp;6.C. &#147;Directors, Senior Management and Employees &#150; Board Practices &#150; Audit Committee.&#148; </P>

inducement awards, certain grants, plans and amendments in the context of mergers and acquisitions, and certain specific types of plans. The Company does not currently offer equity based compensation to our directors, senior management or employees,

the adoption or disclosure of corporate governance guidelines. The Company&#146;s board of directors follows corporate governance guidelines consistent with its equity structure and holding company nature, but the Company has not codified them and
therefore does not disclose them on its website. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Code of business conduct and ethics </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Under NYSE standards, listed companies must adopt and disclose a code of business conduct and ethics for directors, officers and employees, and promptly
disclose any waivers of the code for directors or executive officers. Neither Luxembourg law nor the Company&#146;s articles of association require the adoption or disclosure of such a code of conduct. The Company, however, has adopted a code of
conduct that applies to all directors, officers and employees that is posted on its website and which complies with the NYSE&#146;s requirements, except that it does not require the disclosure of waivers of the code for directors and officers. In
addition, it has adopted a supplementary code of ethics for senior financial officers, which is also posted on our website. See Item&nbsp;16.B. &#147;Code of Ethics.&#148; </P>

officer of a U.S. company listed on the NYSE must annually certify that he or she is not aware of any violation by the company of NYSE corporate governance standards. In accordance with NYSE rules applicable to foreign private issuers, the
Company&#146;s chief executive officer is not required to provide the NYSE with this annual compliance certification. However, in accordance with NYSE rules applicable to all listed companies, the Company&#146;s chief executive officer must promptly
notify the NYSE in writing after any of our executive officers becomes aware of any noncompliance with any applicable provision of the NYSE&#146;s corporate governance standards. In addition, the Company must submit an executed written affirmation
annually and an interim written affirmation upon the occurrence of any of the events listed in the foreign private issuer interim written affirmation form by the NYSE. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated statement of financial position and the related&nbsp;consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income,
changes in equity and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tenaris S.A. and its subsidiaries at 31&nbsp;December&nbsp;2016 and 31 December&nbsp;2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows
for each of the three years in the period ended 31 December&nbsp;2016 in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board and in conformity with International Financial Reporting
Standards as adopted by the European Union. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of&nbsp;31 December&nbsp;2016, based on criteria established in Internal
Control &#150; Integrated Framework 2013 issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company&#146;s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control
over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in &#147;Management&#146;s report on internal control over financial reporting&#148; appearing under Item 15. Our
responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control
over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial
reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we
considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">A company&#146;s internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
A company&#146;s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i)&nbsp;pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the
assets of the company; (ii)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures
of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii)&nbsp;provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of
the company&#146;s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P> <P STYLE="font-size:1pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>I. GENERAL INFORMATION </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris S.A. (the &#147;Company&#148;) was established as a public limited liability company (societ&eacute; anonyme) under the laws of the Grand-Duchy of
Luxembourg on December&nbsp;17, 2001. The Company holds, either directly or indirectly, controlling interests in various subsidiaries in the steel pipe manufacturing and distribution businesses. References in these Consolidated Financial Statements
to &#147;Tenaris&#148; refer to Tenaris S.A. and its consolidated subsidiaries. A list of the principal Company&#146;s subsidiaries is included in Note&nbsp;30 to these Consolidated Financial Statements. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company&#146;s shares trade on the Buenos Aires Stock Exchange, the Italian Stock Exchange and the Mexican Stock Exchange; the Company&#146;s American
Depositary Securities (&#147;ADS&#148;) trade on the New York Stock Exchange. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">These Consolidated Financial Statements were approved for issuance by the
Company&#146;s Board of Directors on February&nbsp;22, 2017. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>II. ACCOUNTING POLICIES </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements are set out below. These policies have been
consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>A Basis of presentation </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Consolidated Financial Statements of Tenaris have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (&#147;IFRS&#148;), as
issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (&#147;IASB&#148;) and adopted by the European Union, under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available for sale financial assets, financial assets and
liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss and plan assets measured at fair value. The Consolidated Financial Statements are, unless otherwise noted, presented in thousands of U.S. dollars (&#147;$&#148;).
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Whenever necessary, certain comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to changes in presentation in the current year. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the sale of the steel electric conduit business in North America, known as Republic Conduit, the results of the mentioned business are presented as
discontinued operations in accordance with IFRS 5 <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;Non-current</FONT> Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations&#148;. Consequently, all amounts related to discontinued operations within each line item of
the Consolidated Income Statement are reclassified into discontinued operations. The Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows includes the cash flows for continuing and discontinued operations, cash flows from discontinued operations and earnings per
share are disclosed separately in note&nbsp;28, as well as additional information detailing net assets of disposal group classified as held for sale and discontinued operations. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make certain accounting estimates and assumptions that
might affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the reporting dates, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting years. Actual results may differ from
these estimates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>(1) New and amended standards not yet adopted and relevant for Tenaris </I></P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In May 2014, the IASB issued IFRS 15, &#147;Revenue from contracts with customers&#148;, which sets out the requirements in accounting for revenue arising from
contracts with customers and which is based on the principle that revenue is recognized when control of a good or service is transferred to the customer. IFRS 15 must be applied on annual periods beginning on or after January&nbsp;1, 2018. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>IFRS 9, &#147;Financial instruments&#148; </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In July 2014,
the IASB issued IFRS 9, &#147;Financial instruments&#148;, which replaces the guidance in IAS 39. It includes requirements on the classification and measurement of financial assets and liabilities, as well as an expected credit losses model that
replaces the current incurred loss impairment model. IFRS 9 must be applied on annual periods beginning on or after January&nbsp;1, 2018. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Subsidiaries are all entities over which Tenaris has control. Tenaris controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has rights to, variable returns from its
involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. Subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is exercised by the Company and are no longer consolidated from the date
control ceases. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by Tenaris. The cost of an acquisition is
measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange. Acquisition-related costs are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets acquired, liabilities and contingent
liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Any <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> interest in the acquiree is measured either at fair value or at the <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> interest&#146;s proportionate share of the acquiree&#146;s net assets. The excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount of any
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> interest in the acquiree over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. If this is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired,
the difference is recognized directly in the Consolidated Income Statement. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Transactions with <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT>
interests that do not result in a loss of control are accounted as transactions with equity owners of the Company. For purchases from <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> interests, the difference between any consideration paid
and the relevant share acquired of the carrying value of net assets of the subsidiary is recorded in equity. Gains or losses on disposals to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> interests are also recorded in equity. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Material intercompany transactions, balances and unrealized gains (losses) on transactions between Tenaris subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation.
However, since the functional currency of some subsidiaries is its respective local currency, some financial gains (losses) arising from intercompany transactions are generated. These are included in the Consolidated Income Statement under <I>Other
financial results</I>. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Tubes segment includes the production and sale of both seamless and welded steel tubular products and related services mainly for the oil and gas
industry, particularly oil country tubular goods (OCTG) used in drilling operations, and for other industrial applications with production processes that consist in the transformation of steel into tubular products. Business activities included in
this segment are mainly dependent on the oil and gas industry worldwide, as this industry is a major consumer of steel pipe products, particularly OCTG used in drilling activities. Demand for steel pipe products from the oil and gas industry has
historically been volatile and depends primarily upon the number of oil and natural gas wells being drilled, completed and reworked, and the depth and drilling conditions of these wells. Sales are generally made to end users, with exports being done
through a centrally managed global distribution network and domestic sales are made through local subsidiaries. Corporate general and administrative expenses have been allocated to the Tubes segment. </P>

&#147;Business Combinations&#148; and IAS 38, Tenaris has recognized the value of customer relationships separately from goodwill attributable to the acquisition of Maverick and Hydril groups. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Customer relationships acquired in a business combination are recognized at fair value at the acquisition date, have a finite useful life and are carried at
cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is calculated using the straight line method over the expected life of approximately 14 years for Maverick and 10 years for Hydril. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In 2015 the Company reviewed the useful life of Prudential&#146;s customer relationships, related to Maverick acquisition, and decided to reduce the remaining
amortization period from 5 years to 2 years. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of December 2016 the residual value of Maverick and Hydril customer relationships amount to

the lowest level for which there are separately identifiable cash flows (cash generating units, or CGU). Most of the Company&#146;s principal subsidiaries that constitute a CGU have a single main production facility and, accordingly, each of such
subsidiary represents the lowest level of asset aggregation that generates largely independent cash inflows. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Assets that are subject to amortization are
reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Intangible assets with indefinite useful life, including goodwill, are subject to at least an annual impairment test. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In assessing whether there is any indication that a CGU may be impaired, external and internal sources of information are analyzed. Material facts and
circumstances specifically considered in the analysis usually include the discount rate used in Tenaris&#146;s cash flow projections and the business condition in terms of competitive and economic factors, such as the cost of raw materials, oil and
gas prices, competitive environment, capital expenditure programs for Tenaris&#146;s customers and the evolution of the rig count. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">An impairment loss is
recognized for the amount by which the asset&#146;s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher between the asset&#146;s value in use and fair value less costs to sell. Any impairment loss is allocated to
reduce the carrying amount of the assets of the CGU in the following order: </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;first, to reduce the carrying amount of any
goodwill allocated to the CGU; and </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">(b) then, to the other assets of the unit (group of units) <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pro-rata</FONT> on the
basis of the carrying amount of each asset in the unit (group of units), considering not to reduce the carrying amount of the asset below the highest of its fair value less cost to sell, its value in use or zero. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The value in use of each CGU is determined on the basis of the present value of net future cash flows which would be generated by such CGU. Tenaris uses cash
flow projections for a five year period with a terminal value calculated based on perpetuity and appropriate discount rates. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of calculating
the fair value less costs to sell, Tenaris uses the estimated value of future cash flows that a market participant could generate from the corresponding CGU. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Management judgment is required to estimate discounted future cash flows. Actual cash flows and values could vary significantly from the forecasted future

materials, direct labor and utilities (based on FIFO method) and other direct costs and related production overhead costs, and it excludes borrowing costs. Tenaris estimates net realizable value of inventories by grouping, where applicable, similar
or related items. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less any estimated costs of completion and selling expenses. Goods in transit at year end are valued based on supplier&#146;s invoice cost.
</P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris establishes an allowance for obsolete or slow-moving inventory related to finished goods, goods in process, supplies and spare parts. For slow
moving or obsolete finished products, an allowance is established based on management&#146;s analysis of product aging. An allowance for obsolete and slow-moving inventory of supplies and spare parts is established based on management&#146;s
analysis of such items to be used as intended and the consideration of potential obsolescence due to technological changes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>J Trade and other

receivables on a regular basis and, when aware of a specific counterparty&#146;s difficulty or inability to meet its obligations, impairs any amounts due by means of a charge to an allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, trade accounts
receivable overdue by more than 180 days and which are not covered by a credit collateral, guarantee, insurance or similar surety, are fully provisioned. </P>

method on temporary differences arising between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements. The principal temporary differences arise from fair value adjustments of assets acquired in business
combinations, the effect of currency translation on depreciable fixed assets and inventories, depreciation on property, plant and equipment, valuation of inventories and provisions for pension plans. Deferred tax assets are also recognized for net
operating loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the time period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax laws that have been enacted or

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">During 2007, Tenaris launched an employee retention and long term incentive program<I> </I>(the &#147;Program&#148;) applicable to certain senior officers and
employees of the Company, who will be granted a number of Units throughout the duration of the Program. The value of each of these Units is based on Tenaris&#146;s shareholders&#146; equity (excluding
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> interest). Also, the beneficiaries of the Program are entitled to receive cash amounts based on (i)&nbsp;the amount of dividend payments made by Tenaris to its shareholders, and (ii)&nbsp;the
number of Units held by each beneficiary to the Program. Units vest ratably over a period of four years and will be redeemed by the Company ten years after grant date, with the option of an early redemption at seven years after grant date. As the
cash payment of the benefit is tied to the book value of the shares, and not to their market value, Tenaris valued this long-term incentive program as a long term benefit plan as classified in IAS 19 &#147;Employee Benefits&#148;. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As of December&nbsp;31, 2016 and 2015, the outstanding liability corresponding to the Program amounts to $78.7&nbsp;million and $84.0&nbsp;million,
respectively. The total value of the units granted to date under the program, considering the number of units and the book value per share as of December&nbsp;31, 2016 and 2015, is $92.9&nbsp;million and $105.3&nbsp;million, respectively. </P>

subject to various claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings, including customer claims, in which a third party is seeking payment for alleged damages, reimbursement for losses or indemnity. Tenaris&#146;s potential liability with respect to such
claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings cannot be estimated with certainty. Management periodically reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses potential financial exposure. If, as a result of past events, a potential loss from a
claim or proceeding is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated, a provision is recorded. Accruals for loss contingencies reflect a reasonable estimate of the losses to be incurred based on information available to management
as of the date of preparation of the financial statements, and take into consideration Tenaris&#146;s litigation and settlement strategies. These estimates are primarily constructed with the assistance of legal counsel. As the scope of liabilities
become better defined, there may be changes in the estimates of future costs which could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If Tenaris expects to be reimbursed for an accrued expense, as would be the case for an expense or loss covered under an insurance contract, and reimbursement

including that the sales price is known or determinable. Sales are recognized as revenue upon delivery, when neither continuing managerial involvement nor effective control over the products is retained by Tenaris and when collection is reasonably
assured. Delivery is defined by the transfer of risk and may include delivery to a storage facility located at one of the Company&#146;s subsidiaries. For bill and hold transactions revenue is recognized only to the extent (a)&nbsp;it is highly
probable delivery will be made; (b)&nbsp;the products have been specifically identified and are ready for delivery; (c)&nbsp;the sales contract specifically acknowledges the deferred delivery instructions; (d)&nbsp;the usual payment terms apply.

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The multinational nature of Tenaris&#146;s operations and customer base exposes the Company to a variety of risks, mainly related to market risks (including
the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates), credit risk and capital market risk. In order to manage the volatility related to these exposures, the management evaluates exposures on a consolidated basis, taking
advantage of logical exposure netting. The Company or its subsidiaries may then enter into various derivative transactions in order to prevent potential adverse impacts on Tenaris&#146;s financial performance. Such derivative transactions are
executed in accordance with internal policies and hedging practices. The Company&#146;s objectives, policies and processes for managing these risks remained unchanged during 2016. </P>

</I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris seeks to maintain a low debt to total equity ratio considering the industry and the markets where it operates. The <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">year-end</FONT> ratio of debt to total equity (where &#147;debt&#148; comprises financial borrowings and &#147;total equity&#148; is the sum of financial borrowings and equity) is 0.07 as of December&nbsp;31, 2016 and 0.08
as of December&nbsp;31, 2015. The Company does not have to comply with regulatory capital adequacy requirements. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><I>(ii) Foreign exchange risk </I></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris manufactures and sells its products in a number of countries throughout the world and consequently is exposed to foreign exchange rate risk. Since the
Company&#146;s functional currency is the U.S. dollar the purpose of Tenaris&#146;s foreign currency hedging program is mainly to reduce the risk caused by changes in the exchange rates of other currencies against the U.S. dollar. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris&#146;s exposure to currency fluctuations is reviewed on a periodic consolidated basis. A number of derivative transactions are performed in order to
achieve an efficient coverage in the absence of operative or natural hedges. Almost all of these transactions are forward exchange rates contracts (see Note 24 Derivative financial instruments). </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris does not&nbsp;enter into derivative financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes, other than
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-material</FONT> investments in structured products. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Because certain subsidiaries have functional currencies other
than the U.S. dollar, the results of hedging activities, reported in accordance with IFRS, may not reflect entirely the management&#146;s assessment of its foreign exchange risk hedging program. Intercompany balances between Tenaris&#146;s
subsidiaries may generate financial gains (losses) to the extent that functional currencies differ. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The value of Tenaris&#146;s financial assets and
liabilities is subject to changes arising out of the variation of foreign currency exchange rates. The following table provides a breakdown of Tenaris&#146;s main financial assets and liabilities (including foreign exchange derivative contracts)

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Credit risk arises from cash and cash equivalents, deposits with banks and financial institutions, as well as credit exposures to customers, including
outstanding receivables and committed transactions. The Company also actively monitors the creditworthiness of its treasury, derivative and insurance counterparties in order to minimize its credit risk. </P>

date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market
transactions on an arm&#146;s length basis. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by Tenaris is the current bid price. These instruments are included in Level&nbsp;1 and comprise primarily corporate and sovereign debt securities.

maturity of more than three months, forward and interest rate derivative instruments) is determined by using valuation techniques which maximize the use of observable market data when available and rely as little as possible on entity specific
estimates. If all significant inputs required to value an instrument are observable, the instrument is included in Level&nbsp;2. Tenaris values its assets and liabilities included in this level using bid prices, interest rate curves, broker
quotations, current exchange rates, forward rates and implied volatilities obtained from market contributors as of the valuation date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">If one or more of
the significant inputs are not based on observable market data, the instruments are included in Level&nbsp;3. Tenaris values its assets and liabilities in this level using observable market inputs and management assumptions which reflect the
Company&#146;s best estimate on how market participants would price the asset or liability at measurement date. Main balances included in this level correspond to Available for sale assets related to Tenaris&#146;s interest in Venezuelan companies

guidance for fair value measurements and disclosures. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The fair values of quoted investments are generally based on current bid prices. If the market for

investments are designated as held to maturity and measured at amortized cost. Tenaris estimates that the fair value of these financial assets is 100.8% and 99% of its carrying amount including interests accrued as of December&nbsp;31, 2016 and 2015
respectively. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The fair value of all outstanding derivatives is determined using specific pricing models that include inputs that are observable in the

converted into U.S. dollars at the spot rate of the valuation date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Borrowings are comprised primarily of fixed rate debt and variable rate debt with a
short term portion where interest has already been fixed. They are classified under other financial liabilities and measured at their amortized cost. Tenaris estimates that the fair value of its main financial liabilities is approximately 99.7% of
its carrying amount including interests accrued in 2016 as compared with 99% in 2015. Fair values were calculated using standard valuation techniques for floating rate instruments and comparable market rates for discounting flows. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Derivative financial instruments are initially recognized in the statement of financial position at fair value through profit and loss on each date a
derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured at fair value. Specific tools are used for calculation of each instrument&#146;s fair value and these tools are tested for consistency on a monthly basis. Market rates are used for
all pricing operations. These include exchange rates, deposit rates and other discount rates matching the nature of each underlying risk. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As a general
rule, Tenaris recognizes the full amount related to the change in fair value of derivative financial instruments in <I>Financial results</I> in the Consolidated Income Statement. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris designates certain derivatives as hedges of particular risks associated with recognized assets or liabilities or highly probable forecast
transactions. These transactions (mainly currency forward contracts on highly probable forecast transactions) are classified as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow
hedges is recognized in equity. Amounts accumulated in equity are then recognized in the income statement in the same period as the offsetting losses and gains on the hedged item. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognized
immediately in the income statement. The fair value of Tenaris&#146;s derivative financial instruments (assets or liabilities) continues to be reflected in the statement of financial position. The full fair value of a hedging derivative is
classified as a current or <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-current</FONT> asset or liability according to its expiry date. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For transactions
designated and qualifying for hedge accounting, Tenaris documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge
transactions. Tenaris also documents its assessment on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flow of hedged items. At December&nbsp;31,
2016 and 2015, the effective portion of designated cash flow hedges which is included in &#147;<I>Other Reserves&#148;</I> in equity amounts to $4.7&nbsp;million debit and $2.8&nbsp;million credit respectively (see Note 24 <I>Derivative financial
instruments</I>). </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The fair values of various derivative instruments used for hedging purposes are disclosed in Note 24. Movements in the hedging reserve

discounting the estimated cash flows over a five year period based on forecasts approved by management. For the subsequent years beyond the five-year period, a terminal value is calculated based on perpetuity considering a nominal growth rate of 2%.
The growth rate considers the long-term average growth rate for the oil and gas industry, the higher demand to offset depletion of existing fields and the Company&#146;s expected market penetration. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris&#146;s main source of revenue is the sale of products and services to the oil and gas industry and the level of such sales is sensitive to
international oil and gas prices and their impact on drilling activities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of assessing key assumptions, Tenaris uses external sources of
information and management judgment based on past experience. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The main key assumptions, used in estimating the value in use are&nbsp;discount
rate,&nbsp;growth rate and competitive and economic factors applied to determine Tenaris&#146;s cash flow projections, such as the cost of raw materials, oil and gas prices, competitive environment, capital expenditure programs for Tenaris&#146;s
customers and the evolution of the rig count. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The discount rates used are based on the respective weighted average cost of capital (WACC) which is
considered to be a good indicator of capital cost. For each CGU where assets are allocated, a specific WACC was determined taking into account the industry, country and size of the business. In 2016, the main discount rates used were in a range
between 9.1% and 10.9%. </P>

subject to various claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings, including customer claims, in which third parties are seeking payment for alleged damages, reimbursement for losses or indemnity. Some of these claims, lawsuits and other legal
proceedings involve highly complex issues, and often these issues are subject to substantial uncertainties. Accordingly, the potential liability with respect to a large portion of such claims, lawsuits and other legal proceedings cannot be estimated
with certainty. Management with the assistance of legal counsel periodically reviews the status of each significant matter and assesses potential financial exposure. If a potential loss from a claim, lawsuit or proceeding is considered probable and
the amount can be reasonably estimated, a provision is recorded. Accruals for loss contingencies reflect a reasonable estimate of the losses to be incurred based on information available to management as of the date of preparation of the financial

December&nbsp;24, 2012 a tax assessment from the Italian tax authorities related to allegedly omitted withholding tax on dividend payments made in 2007. The assessment, which was for an estimated amount of EUR295&nbsp;million (approximately $310.9
million), comprising principal, interest and penalties, was appealed with the first-instance tax court in Milan. In February 2014, the first-instance tax court issued its decision on this tax assessment, partially reversing the assessment and
lowering the claimed amount to approximately EUR9&nbsp;million (approximately $9.5 million), including principal, interest and penalties. On October&nbsp;2, 2014, the Italian tax authorities appealed against the second-instance tax court decision on
the 2007 assessment. On June&nbsp;12, 2015, the second-instance tax court accepted Dalmine&#146;s defense arguments and rejected the appeal by the Italian tax authorities, thus reversing the entire 2007 assessment and recognizing that the dividend
payment was exempt from withholding tax. The Italian tax authorities have appealed the second-instance tax court decision before the Supreme Court. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On December&nbsp;24, 2013, Dalmine received a second tax assessment from the Italian tax authorities, based on the same arguments as those in
the first assessment, relating to allegedly omitted withholding tax on dividend payments made in 2008 &#150; the last such distribution made by Dalmine. Dalmine appealed the assessment with the first-instance tax court in Milan. On January&nbsp;27,
2016, the first-instance tax court rejected Dalmine&#146;s appeal. This first-instance ruling, which held that Dalmine is required to pay an amount of EUR223&nbsp;million (approximately $235.1 million), including principal interest and penalties,
contradicts the first and second-instance tax court rulings in connection with the 2007 assessment. Dalmine obtained the suspension of the interim payment that would have been due, based on the first-instance decision, through the filing with the
tax authorities of a bank guarantee, and appealed the January 2016 ruling with the second-instance tax court. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris continues to believe
that Dalmine has correctly applied the relevant legal provisions and based on, among other things, the tax court decisions on the 2007 assessment and the opinion of legal counsel, Tenaris believes that it is not probable that the ultimate resolution
of either the 2007 or the 2008 tax assessment will result in a material obligation. </P> <P STYLE="font-size:6pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The CSN lawsuit alleges that, under applicable Brazilian laws and rules, the acquirers were
required to launch a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tag-along</FONT> tender offer to all <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> holders of Usiminas ordinary shares for a price per share equal to 80% of the price per share paid in
such acquisition, or BRL28.8, and seeks an order to compel the acquirers to launch an offer at that price plus interest. If so ordered, the offer would need to be made to 182,609,851 ordinary shares of Usiminas not belonging to Usiminas&#146;
control group, and Confab would have a 17.9% share in that offer. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;23, 2013, the first instance court issued its decision
finding in favor of Confab and the other defendants and dismissing the CSN lawsuit. The claimants appealed the first instance court decision with the Sao Paulo court of appeals. On February&nbsp;8, 2017, the court of appeals issued its decision on
the merits and maintained the understanding of the first instance court, holding that Confab and the other defendants did not have the obligation to launch a tender offer. The decision of the court of appeals has not yet been published, and CSN may
still file a motion for clarification and/or appeal to the Superior Court of Justice or the Federal Supreme Court. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Separately, on
November&nbsp;10, 2014, CSN filed a complaint with Brazil&#146;s securities regulator Comiss&atilde;o de Valores Mobili&aacute;rios (CVM) on the same grounds and with the same purpose as the lawsuit referred to above. In this complaint, CSN sought
to reverse a February 2012 decision by the CVM, which had determined that the above mentioned acquisition did not trigger any tender offer requirement. On December&nbsp;2, 2016, CVM rendered its decision on this complaint, reaffirming its previous
decision from 2012 and rejecting all the new allegations presented by CSN. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Finally, on December&nbsp;11, 2014, CSN filed a claim with
Brazil&#146;s antitrust regulator Conselho Administrativo de Defesa Econ&ocirc;mica (&#147;CADE&#148;). In its claim, CSN alleged that the antitrust clearance request related to the January 2012 acquisition, which was approved by CADE without
restrictions in August 2012, contained a false and deceitful description of the acquisition aimed at frustrating the minority shareholders&#146; right to a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">tag-along</FONT> tender offer, and requested that CADE
investigate and reopen the antitrust review of the acquisition and suspend the Company&#146;s voting rights in Usiminas until the review is completed. On May&nbsp;6, 2015, CADE rejected CSN&#146;s claim. CSN did not appeal the decision and on
May&nbsp;19, 2015, CADE finally closed the file. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; margin-left:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris continues to believe that all of CSN&#146;s claims and allegations are groundless

Veracel.&nbsp;Ita&uacute; Seguros S.A. (&#147;Ita&uacute;&#148;), Veracel&#146;s insurer at the time of the Veracel accident, initiated a lawsuit against Confab seeking reimbursement of damages paid to Veracel in connection with the Veracel
accident. Veracel initiated a second lawsuit against Confab seeking reimbursement of the amount paid as insurance deductible in connection with the Veracel accident and other amounts not covered by insurance. Ita&uacute; and Veracel claim that the
Veracel accident was caused by failures and defects attributable to the evaporation system manufactured by Confab. Confab believes that the Veracel accident was caused by the improper handling by Veracel&#146;s personnel of the equipment supplied by
Confab in violation of Confab&#146;s instructions. The two lawsuits have been consolidated, and are now being considered by the 6th Civil Court of S&atilde;o Caetano do Sul; however, each lawsuit will be adjudicated through a separate ruling. Both

matters concerning the Veracel accident. Based upon a technical opinion received from a third-party expert, in August 2016, Confab filed its objections to the expert&#146;s report. Other parties have also filed their observations and/or opinions
concerning the experts&#146; report, which are currently subject to the court examination. As of December&nbsp;31, 2016, the estimated amount of Ita&uacute;&#146;s claim is approximately BRL 74.5&nbsp;million (approximately $22.9 million), and the
estimated amount of Veracel&#146;s claim is approximately BRL 47.7&nbsp;million (approximately $14.6 million), for an aggregate amount BRL 122.2&nbsp;million ($37.5 million). The final result of this claim depends largely on the court&#146;s

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In September 2014, Tenaris completed the acquisition of the 100% of Socotherm Brasil S.A.(&#147;Socotherm&#148;). The purchase price amounted to
$29.6&nbsp;million, net assets acquired (including PPE, inventories and cash and cash equivalents) amounted to $9.6&nbsp;million and goodwill for $20&nbsp;million. Tenaris accounted for this transaction as a step-acquisition and consequently
remeasured to fair value its ownership interest in Socotherm held before the acquisition. As a result, Tenaris recorded in &#147;Equity in earnings (losses) of <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-consolidated</FONT> companies&#148; a gain of

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>31 Nationalization of Venezuelan Subsidiaries </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In May 2009, within the framework of Decree Law 6058, Venezuela&#146;s President announced the nationalization of, among other companies, the Company&#146;s
majority-owned subsidiaries TAVSA - Tubos de Acero de Venezuela S.A. (&#147;Tavsa&#148;) and, Matesi Materiales Sider&uacute;rgicos S.A (&#147;Matesi&#148;), and Complejo Sider&uacute;rgico de Guayana, C.A (&#147;Comsigua&#148;), in which the
Company has a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-controlling</FONT> interest (collectively, the &#147;Venezuelan Companies&#148;). Tenaris and its wholly-owned subsidiary Talta - Trading e Marketing Sociedad Unipessoal Lda (&#147;Talta&#148;),
initiated arbitration proceedings against Venezuela before the ICSID in Washington D.C. in connection with these nationalizations. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On January&nbsp;29,
2016, the tribunal released its award on the arbitration proceeding concerning the nationalization of Matesi. The award upheld Tenaris&#146;s and Talta&#146;s claim that Venezuela had expropriated their investments in Matesi in violation of
Venezuelan law as well as the bilateral investment treaties entered into by Venezuela with the Belgium-Luxembourg Economic Union and Portugal. The award granted compensation in the amount of $87.3&nbsp;million for the breaches and ordered Venezuela
to pay an additional amount of $85.5&nbsp;million in <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">pre-award</FONT> interest, aggregating to a total award of $172.8&nbsp;million, payable in full and net of any applicable Venezuelan tax, duty or charge. The
tribunal granted Venezuela a grace period of six months from the date of the award to make payment in full of the amount due without incurring post-award interest, and resolved that if no, or no full, payment is made by then, post-award interest
will apply at the rate of 9% per annum. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On March&nbsp;14, 2016, Venezuela requested the rectification of the award pursuant to article 49(2) of the ICSID
Convention and ICSID Arbitration Rule 49. The tribunal denied Venezuela&#146;s request on June&nbsp;24, 2016, ordering Venezuela to reimburse Tenaris and Talta for their costs. On September&nbsp;21, 2016, Venezuela submitted a request for annulment
of the award as well as the stay of enforcement of the award in accordance with the ICSID Convention and Arbitration Rules. The annulment request was registered on September&nbsp;29, 2016, and the ad hoc committee that will hear Venezuela&#146;s
request was constituted on December&nbsp;27, 2016. The parties are in the process of exchanging briefs. A hearing is scheduled to be held in the first quarter of 2017 regarding Tenaris&#146;s and Talta&#146;s opposition to Venezuela&#146;s request
to continue stay enforcement of the award. Following that hearing, there will be a further exchange of briefs and an oral hearing on Venezuela&#146;s annulment request, currently proposed to be held in the last quarter of 2017. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Concerning the arbitration proceeding relating to the nationalization of Tenaris&#146;s shareholdings in Tavsa and Comsigua, on December&nbsp;12, 2016, the
tribunal issued its award upholding Tenaris&#146;s and Talta&#146;s claim that Venezuela had expropriated their investments in Tavsa and Comsigua in violation of the bilateral investment treaties entered into by Venezuela with the Belgium-Luxembourg
Economic Union and Portugal. The award granted compensation in the amount of $137&nbsp;million and ordered Venezuela to reimburse Tenaris and Talta $3.3&nbsp;million in legal fees and ICSID administrative costs. In addition, Venezuela was ordered to
pay interest from April&nbsp;30, 2008 until the day of effective payment at a rate equivalent to LIBOR + 4% per annum, which as of December&nbsp;31, 2016 amounted $76&nbsp;million. The deadline for filing a request for annulment of the award expires
on April&nbsp;11, 2017. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based on the facts and circumstances described above and following the guidance set forth by IAS 27R, the Company ceased
consolidating the results of operations and cash flows of the Venezuelan Companies as from June&nbsp;30, 2009, and classified its investments in the Venezuelan Companies as financial assets based on the definitions contained in paragraphs 11(c)(i)
and 13 of IAS 32. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company classified its interests in the Venezuelan Companies as
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">available-for-sale</FONT></FONT> investments since management believes they do not fulfil the requirements for classification within any of the remaining categories provided by IAS 39
and such classification is the most appropriate accounting treatment applicable to <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-voluntary</FONT> dispositions of assets. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Tenaris or its subsidiaries have net receivables with the Venezuelan Companies as of December&nbsp;31, 2016, for a total amount of approximately
$27&nbsp;million. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Company records its interest in the Venezuelan Companies at its carrying amount at June&nbsp;30, 2009, and not at fair value,
following the guidance set forth by paragraphs 46(c), AG80 and AG81 of IAS 39. </P>
