In 2023, Italy led the European export market for seamless steel line pipes used in oil or gas pipelines with a significant volume, despite experiencing a 12.38% year-on-year decrease. Notably, Portugal recorded the highest growth at 132.74%, while Cyprus saw the largest decline at 21.77%. Other countries such as Belgium and Malta showed remarkable growth, indicating dynamic sector patterns.
