While that represents a decline of about 0.3% over 2017 and follows an ongoing deceleration in capacity growth, capacity growth could speed back up.&nbsp;According to the OECD, 87.8 million tons of new capacity is being built now, and there are plans for an additional 22.4 million metric tons of capacity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\">\u201cShould these projects be realized, global steelmaking capacity could increase by approximately 4% to 5% between 2019 and 2021 in the absence of closures. In the context of global excess capacity, it will be important for policymakers to continue closely monitoring investments and closures that take place in the steel industry,\u201d the OECD said.&nbsp;The biggest jump in capacity could occur in Asia, where 53.4 million metric tons of gross capacity additions are currently underway and 10 million metric tons are in the planning stages. Several capacity investments are also taking place in the Middle East region, where investment projects amounting to 25.1 million metric tons of capacity are currently underway, and due for completion in the next three years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><cite><u><span style=\"font-size:10.5pt\"><span style=\"background:white\"><span style=\"line-height:107%\"><span style=\"font-family:&quot;Arial&quot;,sans-serif\"><span style=\"color:#006621\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oecd.org\/sti\/ind\/steelcapacity.htm\"><span style=\"color:#006621\">https:\/\/www.oecd.org\/sti\/ind\/steelcapacity.htm<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/u><\/cite><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Paris, reports that global steelmaking capacity declined slightly in 2018, but projects that are underway now or have been proposed could bring about more than 100 million metric tons of new capacity over the next three years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":63082,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[442,440,441,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8371","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-mining-and-metals-processing","category-news","category-news-articles","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
