Since early this year, the new capacity continues to release, harder to export, enterprise high cost of production factors, such as steel pipe industry the status of the high cost and low profit continued, is expected in the second half of the steel pipe market will continue to supply, price low volatile situation difficult to reverse.
According to incomplete statistics, China has more than 100 million tons of steel pipe capacity (including projects under construction) in 2012.In this case, there was more than 60 million tons of welding capacity and 79.6% of capacity utilization.A53 erw pipe steel pipe capacity exceeds 42 million tons, capacity utilization rate is 67.1%, and the excess capacity is obviously above the welding tube.In the first six months of this year, domestic steel pipe production was 39257,000 tonnes, up 10.74 per cent year on year, according to data released by the China steel structure association steel tube club.The production of seamless steel tube was 1535.40 million tons, up 10.6% year on year.The production of welded pipe was 239.03 million tons, up 10.8% year on year
In the second half of the year, demand for steel pipes will continue to grow modestly, according to the steel structure association of China.Since the beginning of this year, China's fixed asset investment has maintained steady growth of more than 20 percent, the pace of urbanization has accelerated, and the demand for the energy sector has continued to thrive.For the first time, the national energy administration has positioned the coal-bed methane industry as an important emerging energy industry, marking the beginning of the implementation phase of China's coal-bed methane industry policy.In the case of the relative stability of the national macro policy, the demand for steel pipe market will continue to grow modestly, which will play a driving role in the steel pipe market.
The supply side, the second half, although steel production growth has slowed, but the yield is far in excess of the market is estimated to increase new demand, thus aggravate the contradiction of supply.
Given these factors, the steel pipe market is expected to show a glut in the second half of the year, and steel pipe prices will continue to fluctuate at low levels.Squeezed by price and cost, and trade frictions increase, steel pipe exports harder, steel pipe industry the status of the high cost and low profit continued, to a fundamental improvement in the enterprise benefit.
What are the precautions for storing seamless steel pipes?
1. Choose a suitable venue and warehouse; 2. Reasonable stacking, advanced first; 3. Packaging and protective layers of protective materials; 4. Keep warehouse clean and strengthen material maintenance.Significance of Proximity Effect on the Production of High-frequency Longitudinal Welded Pipes
In addition to the skin effect, the proximity effect is another feature of current. When alternating currents of equal magnitude and opposite directions pass through two adjacent conductors, the current will flow through the adjacent inner surface layers of the two conductors, and when the two conductors pass When alternating currents of the same size and direction, the current will flow through the outer surface layers of the two conductors. The proximity effect of the current makes the current in the conductors further uneven. It is this unevenness that makes the high-frequency welded pipe(ERW).Summary of Advantages and Disadvantages of High-Frequency Welded Pipe Forming Methods
