Work plan for capacity reduction in steel pipe industry

According to the work plan of capacity reduction, the government in Hebei province will withdraw about 10 million tons of capacity reduction of China hollow section tube. In 2019, the number of steel smelters will be reduced to 79, and the number of enterprises will be reduced to 62. From 2019 to 2020, the capacity reduction projects are more generous.

The details are as follows: 1. Push forward the completion of the reduction task of the 13th five-year plan. According to the responsibility statement signed by the provincial government and various cities for the iron and steel industry, steel production capacity should reach 48.5 million tons and iron production capacity should reach 49.02 million tons. From the current situation, cities need to cut at least 3.47 million tons of steel production capacity and 10.54 million tons of iron production capacity from 2019 to 2020 to ensure the completion of the “13th five-year plan”. 2. Promote the construction of reduction and replacement projects. 2.31 million tons of mild steel tube capacity will be withdrawn through volume reduction from 2019 to 2020.

3. Push forward the withdrawal of steel capacity transfer in some regions. In accordance with the established plan, the reduction and withdrawal of rectangular hollow section will be 1.92 million tons and By the end of 2019, the industrial upgrading and capacity transfer project will be completed and put into operation. Steel pipe suppliers strive to withdraw about 3 million tons of steel production capacity by the end of 2020 through the transfer. According to the requirements of the state, these equipment have been put on record within a time limit, and it is clearly stipulated that the first-generation iron and steel smelting equipment must be dismantled or transformed and upgraded after their service life expires. Therefore, in order to ensure that the steel production capacity of the whole province is controlled within 200 million tons by the end of 2020, all of these equipment must be transformed and upgraded.

Through the above several kinds of ways, steel production capacity will reach 28.67 million tons, 33.61 million tons of cold rolled steel pipe. Iron-making production capacity is by 244.01 million tons to 198.7975 million tons, which can be achieved by the end of 2020. The above annual task arrangement for steel production capacity will be adjusted in due course according to the progress of capacity reduction. Do you have more doubts about pipe capacity reduction?
