Data statistics of China's seamless steel pipe and welded steel pipe export

China's steel industry is with rapid increase in production, the variety and quality improved significantly. 2013 China's steel output reached 79.79 million t, where annual production of seamless steel pipes for 29,628,000 t, welded steel pipes for 50,162,000 t, China's steel industry after 60 years of development, the total capacity of nearly 108 million steel t, where seamless steel pipe production capacity of close to 43 million t, welded steel unit production close to 65 million t. China has maintained the first position in the world for ten years, and except for a few years, the production showed a rapid upward trend. For the 18 years from 1995 to 2013, China's steel production increased from 8.23 million t quickly grew to 79.79 million t in 2013, a net increase of 71.56 million tons steel production, the average annual increase of 3.976 million t.

For the 13 years from 2000 to 2013, a net increase of steel output 70.679 million t, an average increase of up to 5.437 million t per year. Which from 2004 to 2006 two years, an increase of 13.45 million t, an average increase of up to 6.725 million t per year. 2008-2012 global steel production soared to 151 460 000 t, a net increase of 25.51 million t steel production, the average annual increase of up to 6,378,000 t, this growth is mainly from the rapid development of the contribution made by Chinese steel industry.

In recent years, the export volume increased a lot: 2008 achieved a record level, the export volume of 9.8952 million tons, accounting for 22.41% of total production of steel that year. Which seamless steel pipe exports reached a record level of 6.0913 million tons, accounting for 33.51% of seamless steel pipe production; welded steel pipe exports amounted to the second highest level of 3.804 million tons, accounting for 14.97% welded steel production over 2007 year history best level of 4.6207 million tons, reducing 825,700 tons.

2009 affected by the global financial crisis, a significant reduction in steel exports, a decline of 42.36%. Which seamless steel pipe exports decline of 47.90%; welded steel pipe exports decline of 33.48%.

2010 to 2012, steel exports rose for three consecutive years, but the growth rate has slowed down significantly compared to before the financial crisis, the export volume in 2012 reached 8,862,200 tons, compared with 5,703,700 tons in 2009, an increase of 3.1585 million tons, an increase of 55.38 %, more than in 2008 before the global financial crisis exports of 9,895,300 tons 1,033,100 tons less highest achieved since the country became a net exporter of steel the second highest score.

2013 of 8,823,500 tons, a reduction of 0.4% compared with the amount of 2012.
