Activity in the UAE market for welded pipes has remained sluggish amid the seasonal slump in demand and the approach of the month of Ramadan. Moreover, Emirati welded pipe producers have had to cut their prices by around $5/mt over the past month due to lower feedstock prices. The market is expected to be characterized by slow activity in the summer period due to the month of Ramadan and weak demand from consuming industries.
