The JV Company enabled the Group to expand its market shares in Saudi Arabia and neighboring countries. LSAW Steel Pipes The Group is one of the largest LSAW steel pipe manufacturers and exporters in the PRC. LSAW steel pipe was the largest source of revenue of the Group and accounted for approximately 87.9% of The Group’s total steel pipe revenue for the year ended 31 December 2019. For the year ended 31 December 2019, revenue from the sales and manufacturing service of LSAW steel pipes amounted to approximately RMB835.3 million and RMB167.9 million, respectively, representing an increase of approximately 41.3% and a decrease of 14.2%, respectively, as compared to that for the year ended 31 December 2018. The net increase in sales of LSAW steel pipes was mainly due to the increase in domestic orders as the major oil and gas projects in the PRC have been recovered in 2019. SSAW Steel Pipes The Group’s SSAW steel pipes produced in The Group’s plant in Lianyungang use the pre-welding and precision welding SSAW technique, which is the most advanced standard among all SSAW technologies. Revenue from the sales and manufacturing service of SSAW steel pipes amounted to approximately RMB29.6 million and RMB52.3 million respectively. The total revenue from SSAW steel pipes accounted for approximately 7.2% of the total steel pipe revenue for the year ended 31 December 2019, representing a decrease of approximately 57.6% as compared to that for the year ended 31 December 2018. The decrease in sales of SSAW steel pipes was mainly due to decrease in construction projects during the year. ERW Steel Pipes Competition in the market of ERW steel pipes has been very keen due to its relatively low technical and standardised entry requirements. For the year ended 31 December 2019, revenue from the sales and manufacturing service of ERW steel pipes amounted to approximately RMB7.8 million and RMB62 thousand, respectively. The total revenue from ERW steel pipes accounted for approximately 0.7% of the total steel pipe revenue for the year ended 31 December 2019, representing a decrease of approximately 75.0% compared to that for the year ended 31 December 2018. The decrease in sales of ERW steel pipes was mainly due to removal of ERW production line at Panyu production site during the year. Prospects: Looking forward, the PRC government officially established China Oil & Gas Pipeline Network Corporation*(國家石油天然氣管網集團有限公司)(the “Pipe China”), marking a milestone in the market-oriented reform of the operation mechanism on oil and gas pipeline network. The establishment of the Pipe China will help straighten out the gas industry chain and systematically plan and accelerate the construction of pipelines and other infrastructure, which in turn will drive demand for related equipment. It is expected that the development of natural gas network will generate market demand for related equipment worth over RMB300 billion. The PRC government is expected to strengthen policy regulation after the end of the COVID-19 epidemic, in order to achieve the economic and social development goals for this year. As an important force to maintain the stable growth, more efforts will focus on infrastructure investment. Various ministries and commissions including National Development and Reform Commission, Ministry of Transport and National Energy Administration will take efforts to expand effective investment, speed up approvals and bidding, orderly promote project resumption and start-up and continue to optimize the rolling pipeline project. Under the 13th Five-Year Plan, China ushered in a stage of vigorous development in construction of natural gas pipeline networks. As it is stated in the Medium to Long Term Oil and Gas Pipeline Networks Planning(《中長期油氣管網規劃》)published by the National Development and Reform Commission of the People’s Republic of China, China will strive to strengthen the land and sea linkage as well as onshore and offshore interaction, consolidate and improve the northwest, northeast, southwest and offshore channels for oil and gas import, and promote energy cooperation with countries and regions along the “Belt and Road Initiative”, thereby forming a preliminary layout with balanced distribution of onshore and offshore channels by 2025. Besides, China will strengthen the infrastructure construction of natural gas pipeline networks by following the principle of transmitting gas from the west to the east and from the north to the south, and bringing gas from offshore, so as to establish natural gas infrastructure networks featured by “interconnection of backbone networks with regional networks” by 2025. Next year will be the kick off year of the 14th Five-Year Plan. It is believed that development and deployment of pipeline networks will be intensified, and natural gas sector is projected to become the fastest growing energy sector by reaching a growth rate of 9.40%, completely outmatches those of other energy sectors. It is expected that investment scale of trunk pipelines for the period from 2019 to 2025 will be extensive. According to the 13th Five-Year Plan and the 14th Five-Year Plan, during the period from 2019 to 2020 and the period from 2021 to 2025, the planned construction length of natural gas pipelines in China will amount to 28,000 kilometers and 59,000 kilometers, respectively, and construction investment for newly constructed trunk pipelines will amount to RMB370.4 billion and RMB780.6 billion, respectively (in aggregate of RMB1,151 billion). The PRC government also plans to promote the integrated development of natural gas and renewable energy with implementing natural gas integrated development demonstration projects in Sichuan, Jiangsu, Guangdong and other regions; promote gasification projects in key areas for air pollution prevention and treatment in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region; accelerate oil and gas pipeline construction in key areas and regions with low gasification rates; advance the construction of auxiliary transmission pipelines of shale gas and other unconventional natural gas. The main natural gas pipelines currently planned and under construction in China include the Xinjiang-Guangdong-Zhejiang Pipeline, the Shaanxi-Beijing Pipeline (Line IV), the Sino-Russian Natural Gas Pipeline and the west-East Gas Pipeline (Line IV), which is expected to generate a total demand for steel pipes of approximately 8 million tons in the next 2-3 years. Since steel pipes account for the major part of the pipes, it is estimated that the increase in steel pipe demand driven by the construction of the four pipelines will be approximately RMB30 to 40 billion. In the future, The Group will proactively develop and expand The Group’s customer bases both domestically and internationally. For domestic market, in view of the state’s promotion of natural gas utilization and acceleration of infrastructure projects, a rebound in demand for steel pipes is expected. According to the plan of the state, the lengths of crude oil pipelines, refined oil pipelines and natural gas pipelines will reach 32,000 kilometers, 33,000 kilometers and 104,000 kilometers respectively by 2020. And the total length of oil and gas pipeline network will reach 240,000 kilometers, the network coverage will be further expanded, the network structure will be further optimized and the storage and transmission capability will be significantly improved by 2025. During the plan period, six new crude oil pipelines and eight new refined oil pipelines are planned to be constructed, which will be a golden era for the development of oil and gas pipelines. The Group believes that the above-mentioned projects and policies are major opportunities for the steel pipe manufacturing industry, and the Company will grab the opportunities to improve the sales. In view of The Group’s long-term strategic target to become a global leading steel pipe manufacturer, the Group will seize possible opportunities of oil and gas development projects to expand The Group’s customer base and market share through engaging in more global oil and gas projects and will also continue to leverage its strengths in the steel pipe industry to obtain more orders.
