Evraz Oregon Steel Mills is closing its coiled tubing plant at its Portland plant, resulting in nearly 230 permanent job cuts. Evraz said it will implement the cuts over a two-month period starting Monday. Evraz North America Director of Communications and Government Patrick Waldron said: “The oil and gas sector has been hit by the coronavirus crisis and the industries that supply it are suffering. Prices and demand dropped significantly, and pipeline construction was delayed or slowed down. All of this, combined with steel plate tariffs vital to Portland's success, called for this action. ”
The plant in the Rivergate Industrial District in North Portland employed about 600 people before layoffs.
