The Russian Federation dominated the global pipelines transport volume share in 2023, recording the highest figures, followed by China with a significant forecasted volume increase of 3.31% year-on-year. Kazakhstan also exhibited positive growth at 0.94%. Conversely, several European countries experienced declines, notably Hungary (-8.52%) and Lithuania (-29.69%). Macedonia showed an impressive 16.08% increase, albeit from a smaller base. The 5-year CAGR highlights variable trends: growth in China and Kazakhstan contrasted by stagnation or decline in many European markets, indicating shifts in energy logistics priorities.
Future trends to monitor:
- Continued expansion of China's pipeline infrastructure to meet energy demands.
- Implementation of greener technologies influencing pipeline transport efficiency and share.
- Potential policy and geopolitical shifts affecting Russian transport volume share.
- Increased regional collaboration within Europe could impact smaller markets' volume shares.
