In 2023, the import of pipes, line, iron, or steel for oil or gas pipelines to Germany stood significantly higher than any of the forecasted values for 2024 through 2028. Starting from 4.8543 million kilograms in 2024, the predicted import volume steadily declines to 3.1528 million kilograms by 2028. This projection shows a consistent decrease in demand, with the value in 2028 significantly lower than in 2024, indicating potential structural changes or reductions in infrastructure projects for oil or gas pipelines.

Future trends to watch for include:

Shift towards renewable energy sources reducing demand for traditional pipeline materials.
Potential geopolitical factors influencing Germany’s energy import strategies.
Technological advancements offering alternative materials or methods for pipeline construction.
