Several infrastructure and desalination projects are underway, especially in China and western Asia. Saudi Arabia has just announced an ambitious project in the Riyadh region, involving 18 reservoirs, more than 1,192 kilometres of new pipelines and pumping stations with a daily capacity of 247,000 cubic metres. Countries that have recently issued tenders for stainless-steel pipes for water projects include Egypt, Malta and Syria.

Conclusion The market for TPF is buoyed up by new and expanding markets and smart innovation. Seamless production is rising faster than welded as industries demand higher performance. The best opportunities lie in power generation, semiconductor fabrication and digital infrastructure cooling. Smart technologies for monitoring both TPF fabrication and the operation of the products themselves are leading to productivity gains. The outlook for stainless-steel TPF is therefore relatively favourable – despite geopolitical tensions.
