Boulogne-Billancourt (France), 9 November 2015 - Vallourec, world leader in
premium tubular solutions, today announces its results for the third quarter and
first nine months of 2015. The consolidated financial statements were presented
by Vallourec's Management Board to its Supervisory Board on 9 November 2015.

Commenting on these results, Philippe Crouzet, Chairman of the Management Board,
said:

"The adverse market environment we have been facing since the beginning of the
year has continued to deteriorate.  While the decline in production from mature
oil fields and US shale plays will trigger a recovery of E&P investments in the
medium term, we do not expect market conditions to improve in the short term.

This environment severely affects our revenues and profitability. Vallourec
teams are more committed than ever to adapt. We are vigorously implementing
short-term measures, which are proving effective, and Valens, our two-year
competitiveness plan, is well on track to reach the ?350 million cost reduction
target. Our sales and marketing forces are equally mobilized to meet our
customers' needs through best-in-class products, competitive offers and
innovative solutions which are Vallourec's signature.

We maintain our relentless focus on cash through cost reduction, tight working
capital management and strict capex discipline, and reiterate our target to
generate positive free cash flow in 2015."

For the third quarter of 2015, Vallourec recorded revenues of ?872 million, down
35.1% compared with the third quarter of 2014 (down 34.3% at constant exchange
rates). The significant decrease in volumes   (-43.8%) was slightly offset by a
positive price/mix effect (9.5%).

For the first nine months of 2015, Vallourec recorded revenues of ?2,942
million, down 27.1% compared with the first nine months of 2014 (down 32.3% at
constant exchange rates) mainly resulting from a negative volume effect (-
35.7%), in particular for Oil & Gas in EAMEA and in the USA, and despite
positive translation (+3.3%) and price/mix (+5.3%) effects.


Oil & Gas, Petrochemicals (68.6% of revenues)

Oil & Gas revenues were ?1,864 million in 9M 2015, down 30.1% year-on-year (down
34.8% at constant exchange rates):

* In the USA, volumes sold were down over the first nine months, reflecting
the fall in the active rig count of 54% along with destocking from
distributors. Prices continued to decrease in Q3.
* In the EAMEA[1] region, as a result of the postponement of projects by IOCs
and of the destocking in Saudi Arabia, volumes and mix were significantly
down in 9M 2015 compared with a strong 9M 2014. A few tenders were launched
by NOCs in the Middle East during Q3 2015 in a context of intensifying
competition leading to acute pressure on prices.
* In Brazil, revenues were down year-on-year in 9M 2015 due to lower drilling
activity when compared to 2014, despite Q3 2015 benefiting from anticipated
deliveries.

Petrochemicals revenues were ?157 million in 9M 2015, down 21.9% year-on-year
(down 25.4% at constant exchange rates) due to lower demand in a highly
competitive environment.


Power Generation (13.7% of revenues)

Power Generation revenues amounted to ?402 million in 9M 2015, down 1.7% year-
on-year (down 5.1% at constant exchange rates):

* Conventional power generation revenues were down in a very competitive
environment.
* In nuclear, revenues were up year-on-year, explained by a favorable
comparable in 2014.


Industry & Other (17.7% of revenues)

Industry & Other revenues amounted to ?519 million in 9M 2015, down 31.5% year-
on-year (down 30.1% at constant exchange rates):

* In Europe, revenues were down year-on-year in a very competitive
environment. The mining activity remained depressed while the lack of demand
in the Oil & Gas industry triggered production shift from some competitors
towards Mechanical and Structural applications.
      In Brazil, revenues were down year-on-year, strongly impacted by the
ongoing deterioration of the macroeconomic environment. Vallourec's activity in
the region is affected in particular by the severe downturn in the automotive
and construction sectors. 9M 2015 iron ore revenues were significantly down
year-on-year, due to the 44% drop in iron ore spot prices compared with 9M 2014.



II - 9M 2015 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS ANALYSIS

For the first nine months of 2015, EBITDA stood at ?0 million, down by ?619
million year-on-year. This was due to:
* Lower consolidated revenues at ?2,942 million, down -27.1% (down -32.3% at
constant exchange rates), mainly resulting from a negative volume effect (-
35.7%), notably for Oil & Gas in EAMEA and in the USA, and despite positive
translation (+3.3%) and price/mix (+5.3%) effects.
* Lower industrial margin at ?396 million, down -62.2%. Despite a high
adaptation of variable costs, and lower industrial fixed costs, industrial
margin was impacted by the inefficiency of low load in the mills.
* Sales, general and administrative costs (SG&A) declined by 13.1% in Q3 2015
to ?119 million, and by 6.6% to ?383 million for the first nine months of
2015, representing an improvement of ?27 million or ?35 million at constant
exchange rate. This improvement comes from an overall focus on cost
reduction, first results of Valens G&A actions, and was achieved despite
unfavorable exchange rates and inflation.

Operating result was a loss of ?393 million, compared with a profit of ?345
million in 9M 2014. This deterioration results mainly from lower EBITDA and ?120
million of restructuring charges and impairment related to the implementation of
Valens booked in 9M 2015. The depreciation of industrial assets remained broadly
stable at ?228 million.

For the first nine months of 2015, financial result was negative at -?52 million
versus -?41 million in 9M 2014.

The income tax charge amounted to ?12 million in 9M 2015 compared with ?107
million in the first nine months of 2014.

Non-controlling interests were a charge of ?19 million in 9M 2015, compared with
a profit of ?29 million in 9M 2014, mainly explained by the decline in US
operations results.

Net result, Group share was a loss of ?439 million in 9M 2015, compared with a
profit of ?169 million in 9M 2014.


III - CASH FLOW & FINANCIAL POSITION

Vallourec generated a positive free cash flow of ?32 million in Q3 2015. Over
9M 2015, positive free cash flow amounted to ?35 million, compared with ?135
million in 9M 2014. This is primarily explained by:

* Negative cash flow from operating activities resulting from the drop in
EBITDA;
* A reduction in operating working capital requirement in 9M 2015 (+?279
million), compared with an increase of ?176 million in 9M 2014, mainly
driven by inventory reduction linked to activity levels; in Q3 2015 the
operating working capital requirement decreased by ?168 million in addition
to ?111 million generated in H1 2015;
* Lower capital expenditure at ?159 million, compared with ?205 million in
9M 2014.

As at 30 September 2015, Group net debt increased by ?86 million to ?1,633
million compared with the end of 2014 but showing an improvement of +?37 million
over Q3 2015.

The gearing ratio was 48.3% compared with 37.1% at the end of 2014.


IV - LIQUIDITY PROFILE

As part of its continuous effort to maintain a strong liquidity position, in
September 2015 Vallourec  extended the maturity of ?400 million of committed
facilities from July 2017 to July 2019. This successful operation underlies
confidence in the credit quality of Vallourec.

At 30 September 2015, Vallourec's liquidity position consists of ?600 million of
available cash -which exceed the financial short term debt to be repaid- and
?1.8 billion of undrawn committed facilities with no amortization until 2017.

Vallourec's gross debt amounts to ?2.2 billion of which ?1.6 billion is in long
term bonds. The next bond repayment will occur in February 2017 for ?650
million.


V - SHORT-TERM ADAPTATION AND VALENS PLAN

Over the first nine months of 2015, global staff reduction was 2,500,
representing approximately 11% of total headcount, including close to 1,700
permanent jobs.

Action plans have been implemented to adapt the mills' to the reduced activity,
and have enabled over 80% of the variable costs (excluding raw materials)
associated with the lost volume to be removed.

The Valens plan is well on track with approximately 2/3rd of the 700 initiatives
already started notably on manufacturing costs and SG&A. These initiatives,
along with an overall focus on cost reduction, contributed to the reduction of
industrial fixed costs and of S&GA.
The targeted savings of 10% of added costs, with a full year effect in 2017, is
confirmed.

The process to structurally reduce our European steel and tube capacity, and our
worldwide overhead costs is being implemented according to plan.



VI - MARKET TRENDS & OUTLOOK

Vallourec expects its Oil & Gas deliveries and results to be impacted by
sustained adverse market conditions:

* In the EAMEA region, customers have intensified the control of their cash
outflows, leading to decreased CAPEX and inventory optimisation with a
material impact on demand. As a result, the very weak order inflow since the
beginning of the year combined with strong price pressure will lead to low
deliveries and weigh on the coming quarters' results, despite the favorable
effect of a stronger US dollar.

* In the USA, the performance in Q4 2015 should continue to be impacted by low
demand and persistent pressure on prices. The ongoing reduction in the
active rig count will keep demand low and lead to further destocking from
distributors over the next quarters. However, the reductions in US crude
production should contribute to a progressive rebalancing in crude oil
supply and demand.

* In Brazil, due to reduced drilling activity and a phasing of H2 deliveries
concentrated in Q3 2015 Vallourec expects its Q4 2015 revenues to be
significantly down. On 5 October 2015, Petrobras announced a further
reduction of its 2016 E&P investments. This new cut is expected to have a
moderate impact on revenues in 2016 thanks to a focus maintained on the
development of pre-salt basins. Vallourec anticipates a progressive increase
in deliveries no earlier than 2017.

Power Generation activity should remain broadly stable in an increasingly
competitive environment, benefiting from sustained bookings in particular in the
Chinese conventional market.

Industry & Other operations in Brazil will continue to suffer in Q4 2015 from
the deteriorating local macroeconomic environment, while persisting oversupply
in the iron ore market will result in significantly lower prices than in 2014.
The market environment for Industry & Other operations in Europe should remain
very competitive.

Compared to Q3 2015, the Group expects Q4 2015 results to further deteriorate,
being notably affected by the unfavorable phasing of Oil & Gas deliveries in
Brazil. For the full year 2015, EBITDA will be negative. The operating working
capital requirement will continue to be strongly reduced in Q4 2015, and the
capital expenditure will stand below ?300 million. The Group continues to target
a positive free cash flow generation in 2015.

As the Group does not expect market conditions to improve in the short term,
Vallourec teams are more committed than ever to vigorously implementing both
short-term adaptation measures and the Valens structural cost reduction program,
and promptly delivering on them.
