The completion of new ships posted large growth however new ship orders continued declining for 12 months. The impact of financial crisis on ship industry became more obvious and the operation situation didn’t show visible signs of improving.
1 ship plate output fell largely, price lingered at low level
According to China Iron & Steel Association statistics, China produced 7.41 million tonnes of ship plates in January to July a decrease of 3.88 million tonnes from the same period of last year or down 40.7%. In July the ship plate output posted at 1.25 million tonnes falling 34%..
The statistics showed that the outputs stayed steady in a similar level in May, June and July. During those months, mills experienced fine orders mainly for exports and direct supply. They cut down domestic traders’ orders or raised order price to alleviate the oversupply in domestic market.
2 Mills raised ship plate price
In August affected by iron ore spot price upswing, domestic mills lifted their Aug and September ship plate ex-works prices. The statistics suggested that price for 20mm CCSB ship plate averaged CNY 4050 per tonne in July in 9 key cities of China up by CNY 150 per tonne . August delivered price rose up by CNY 200 per tonne to CNY 500 per tonne and Baosteel and Wuhan Steel lifted their September delivered price up by over CNY 700 per tonne.

GB T 5312 Carbon and carbon-manganese steel seamless steel tubes and pipes are mainly for ship use, also known as shipbuilding steel pipes. Under GB T 5312, there are mainly 5 steel grades: grade 320, 360, 410, 460 and 490. Each grade covers three levels: I, II, III.
Angle steel, commonly known as angle iron, is a long strip of steel whose sides are perpendicular to each other. There are equal angle steels and unequal angle steels. The two sides of equal angle steel are equal in width. The unequal angle steel is also known as L shape profile steel.
Flat bar steel can be produced according to the user's needs, with fixed thickness, width and length. It can reduce the cutting process for users, reduce the consumption of labor and materials, and also reduce the processing loss of raw materials.
