Section 1 – Conflict Minerals Disclosure

Item 1.01 Conflict Minerals Disclosure and Report

Conflict Minerals Disclosure

This Specialized Disclosure Report on Form SD of Tenaris S.A. is for the reporting period from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015. Unless the context indicates otherwise, “Tenaris,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Tenaris S.A. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

During 2015, our operation in Dalmine, Italy, manufactured products for which 3TGs (which refers to columbite-tantalite (coltan), cassiterite, gold, wolframite or their derivatives, which are limited to tantalum, tin and tungsten) are necessary to their functionality or production (“Covered Products”). Accordingly, we conducted a reasonable country of origin inquiry (“RCOI”) that was designed to determine whether any of the 3TGs in our Covered Products originated in the Democratic Republic of the Congo or an adjoining country (Angola, Burundi, the Central African Republic, the Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, South Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda or Zambia) (a “Covered Country”), or were from recycled or scrap sources. The result of that RCOI was that we have reason to believe, based on information provided by one of our suppliers, that some of our necessary 3TG’s originated in a Covered Country.

Accordingly, we have prepared a Conflict Minerals Report. A copy of the Conflict Minerals Report of Tenaris for the reporting period January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015, which includes a description of our RCOI, our due diligence efforts and the results thereof, is provided as Exhibit 1.01 hereto and is publicly available at http://ir.tenaris.com/sec.cfm

Item 1.02 Exhibit

We have filed our Conflict Minerals Report as Exhibit 1.01 to this Form SD.

Section 2 – Exhibits
