In April 2018, our Philiphine customer purchased 1008 Tons API5 L Gr.B ERW&Q345B SMLS pipe A36 mild hot rolled carbon steel sheet for offshore oildfield resources drilling project. This is a regular demand almost two month, and we has been cooperated more than three times, totally around 2100 tons steel pipe since 2015 year.
Since 2020, the foreign trade industry has been significantly affected by the epidemic. In the first two months of this year, China's A36 mild hot rolled carbon steel sheet and so on steel exports totaled 7.811 million tons, down 27% year-on-year, the largest decline since March 2018. In terms of steel foreign trade, China is mainly a steel exporting country, with less steel imports.
Ordinary medium and thick steel plate A36 mild hot rolled carbon steel sheet is a kind of deoxidized steel. The oxygen content of the steel liquid is relatively high, and a lot of gas will be produced during the production process to make the steel liquid boil, so it is also called boiling steel. Advantages: this kind of steel plate has smooth surface, good quality and easy processing. Because this kind of steel plate has no concentrated shrinkage cavity, the amount of deoxidizer is very small and the price is lower than other steel plates.
