Global Duplex Stainless Steel Pipe Market Overview
The worldwide duplex stainless steel pipe market was estimated at just under USD 1.1 billion in 2019 and is expected to surpass over USD 1.5 billion by 2026, representing a CAGR of around 5.5% during the forecast timeframe. Emerging countries, an increase in offshore spending, and the potential of new oil field discovery are anticipated to swell the global duplex stainless steel pipe market size. Rising onshore as well as offshore exploration investment is predicted to create new opportunities for the market.
However, the economic slowdown and the fluctuating cost of raw materials used to manufacture duplex stainless steel impede demand growth. With the slowdown in the world economy, the duplex stainless steel pipe industry is projected to suffer some impact. The economic recession has caused a shrink in investment across many sectors. This is attributed to harm to the global demand for duplex stainless steel pipe significantly.
