Certification Regarding Eligibility
To Apply for Worker Adjustment Assistance

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as
amended ("Act"), 19 U.S.C. § 2273, the Department of Labor
herein presents the results of an investigation regarding
certification of eligibility to apply for worker adjustment
assistance.
The group eligibility requirements for workers of a firm
under Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a), are
satisfied if the following criteria are met:
(1) a significant number or proportion of the
workers in such workers' firm have become totally or
partially separated, or are threatened to become
totally or partially separated;
(2)(B)(i)(I) there has been a shift by the workers'
firm to a foreign country in the production of
articles or supply of services like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by the
workers' firm; OR
(II) there has been an acquisition from a
foreign country by the workers' firm of
articles/services that are like or directly
competitive with those produced/supplied by
the workers' firm; AND
(ii) the shift/acquisition must have contributed
importantly to the workers' separation or
threat of separation.

The investigation was initiated in response to a petition
filed on February 28, 2017 on behalf of workers of Intelliserv,
Inc., a subsidiary of Grant Prideco, Inc. and National Oilwell
Varco, Inc., Provo, Utah (herein referred to as "Intelliserv,
Inc."). The workers' firm is engaged in activities related to
the production of wire/string addition/modifications for drill
pipe. The subject worker group includes on-site leased workers
from Elwood Staffing and ROI Staffing.
During the course of the investigation, information was
collected from the workers' firm and the petitioners.
Section 222(a)(1) has been met because a significant
number or proportion of the workers in such workers' firm have
become totally or partially separated, or are threatened to
become totally or partially separated.
Section 222(a)(2)(B) has been met because the workers'
firm has shifted to a foreign country the production of an
article like or directly competitive with the article produced
by the workers which contributed importantly to worker group
separations at Intelliserv, Inc. An export customer base is
now being served by the firm's affiliate in a foreign country.


Conclusion
After careful review of the facts obtained in the
investigation, I determine that workers of Intelliserv, Inc., a
subsidiary of Grant Prideco, Inc. and National Oilwell Varco,
Inc., including on-site leased workers from Elwood Staffing and
ROI Staffing, Provo, Utah, who are engaged in activities related
to the production of wire/string addition/modifications for
drill pipe meet the worker group certification criteria under
Section 222(a) of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2272(a). In accordance
with Section 223 of the Act, 19 U.S.C. § 2273, I make the
following certification:



"All workers of Intelliserv, Inc., a subsidiary of Grant
Prideco, Inc. and National Oilwell Varco, Inc., including
on-site leased workers from Elwood Staffing and ROI
Staffing, Provo, Utah, who became totally or partially
separated from employment on or after February 27, 2016
through two years from the date of certification, and all
workers in the group threatened with total or partial
separation from employment on the date of certification
through two years from the date of certification, are
eligible to apply for adjustment assistance under Chapter 2
of Title II of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended."
Signed in Washington, D.C. this 22nd day of June 2017.
