1 l How has the global small diameter (up to 24 OD) linepipe market responded to volatile demand conditions? How has the market responded to dropping oil prices? l As the market becomes more regionalised, how do global suppliers compete? l As sour gas drilling intensifies, how is demand for clad and lined pipes likely to develop? The Five Year Strategic Outlook for the Global Small Diameter Linepipe Market ERW Seamless Lined Clad Linepipe Brand new for 2015

2 The Five Year Strategic Outlook for the Global Small Diameter Linepipe Market What strategies can producers adopt to remain competitive in the market? Are there opportunities to diversify product portfolios to cater to sour gas markets? Is there room for further capacity and if so, where? For the first time, MBR provides an in-depth analysis of the global small-diameter steel linepipe market. This unique study examines regional trends, pricing pressure, how the market is currently responding to volatile conditions, and how it will continue to do so with a five year outlook. The study investigates how, as drilling increasingly moves to corrosive sour environments, this will impact on the grades of ERW, seamless and clad and lined pipe being used moving forwards. Furthermore, as shale drilling becomes more common, placing greater demand on larger diameters of ERW linepipe, how will this impact on the types of small-diameter linepipe being requested? This study will also investigate the capacity for smalldiameter pipe making globally. In particular many of the Asian countries, noticeably China and South Korea, have seen a rapid build-up in capacity for linepipe making. This has now coincided with a downturn in oil prices, which has hit OCTG demand heavily. Will small-diameter linepipe also struggle in this market environment and how does the global market respond to this excess production and price pressure? As demand falls, MBR s Five Year Strategic Outlook for the Global Small Diameter Linepipe Market examines how quickly we believe this industry will recover and what the implications will be on pricing going forward in this environment
