2nd Middle East Steel Tube & Pipe 2012

The Middle East is the largest market in the world for OCTG, line-pipe and tubes. Major local construction projects, and the region’s proven oil and gas reserves, continue to spell great opportunities for investors and manufacturers in the steel tube and pipe industry.

Large European, North American and Asian companies have the resources to capitalise on these openings, but how will local partnerships feature in the success of these ventures? And how will more challenging and technical drilling projects in oil and gas affect demand for more specialised, high-end manufactured products?

MetalBulletin Events are gathering a panel of authoritative speakers to answer these questions and discuss:

· The tube and pipe requirements of the regions stable, high-output oil and gas sector.
· Demand from construction and elsewhere as the region maintains efforts to diversify its economies.
· The importance and potential of local partnerships for regional and foreign firms.
· The supply dominance of Indian and Turkish firms.
· Whether China will successfully offload it’s surpluses?
· American protectionism and European uncertainty. 
· Deeper drilling and more challenging conditions – stimulating demand for specialised products

               
Specifically designed to inform the Middle Eastern market, the conference will play host to over 150 anticipated delegates from milling and manufacture to trade and finance. Middle East Steel Tube and Pipe is the essential destination to shore-up or win business, for the right start to 2012.
