The global oil and gas pipes market is forecast to grow from roughly US $63.0 billion in 2025 to US $81.0 billion by 2035, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of ~2.5%. Meanwhile, in the United States alone, demand for oil and gas pipes is projected to rise from US $15.8 billion in 2025 to ~US $20.3 billion by 2035, reflecting a CAGR of ~2.4%.
Pipelines remain central to energy infrastructure globally — for upstream exploration and production, midstream transportation, and downstream distribution. As the broader oil & gas infrastructure market expands, demand for pipes, which form the backbone of pipelines, is set to follow.
The global energy trade network has become more interconnected and geopolitically sensitive. The United States, Europe, and other hubs anchor global oil flows, and changes in European energy sourcing — notably a pivot toward US energy exports — may influence cross-Atlantic demand for pipeline hardware, including pipes.
Europe’s Changing Energy Sourcing & Implications for Pipe Demand
Europe has significantly reshaped its energy sourcing in recent years. The reduction of Russian gas imports triggered policy and infrastructure shifts.
-
EU pipeline gas imports have declined substantially, while LNG imports have increased. The United States has emerged as a leading supplier of LNG to Europe, accounting for roughly half of all LNG imports.
-
The US has become Europe’s top supplier of crude oil and related petroleum products.
This structural shift in energy trade — from Russian-origin pipeline gas to US-sourced crude oil and LNG — implies potential growth not only in fuel imports but also in associated infrastructure imports, such as pipelines. European importers or pipeline operators may increasingly source pipeline hardware or components from US manufacturers, especially where compliance, reliability, and logistics favor US-origin steel.

Outlook 2025–2035: Key Developments
Given these structural and trade shifts, European demand for US-origin oil and gas pipes might evolve as follows:
-
Sustained growth in US-based pipe manufacturing capacity — US producers are likely to scale up fabrication, including welded and seamless pipes, serving both domestic and export markets.
-
Increased US-EU energy trade — continued pivot away from Russian gas means US crude, LNG, and pipeline solutions may become strategic.
-
Upstream & midstream infrastructure projects — global oil & gas infrastructure expansion implies more pipelines, LNG terminals, and distribution networks, increasing demand for high-grade pipes.
-
Technology upgrades & advanced pipe systems — adoption of welded, high-strength, corrosion-resistant pipes is likely for upstream and midstream use, potentially sourced from US plants.
-
Regulatory, standards & supply-chain shifts — European energy security and industrial policy may encourage preference for US suppliers over other international sources.
Challenges & Uncertainties
Several factors could limit European demand for US-origin pipes:
-
Lack of direct data linkage: Available market data track US and global pipe demand but not exports to Europe.
-
European domestic production & supply-chain preferences: Europe has a well-developed steel and pipe manufacturing base, which may reduce reliance on imports.
-
Energy transition & declining fossil-fuel demand: Europe’s shift toward renewables and decarbonization may curb long-term demand for new oil & gas pipelines.
-
Geopolitical and trade policy risks: Tariffs, regulatory divergence, and climate-policy commitments may influence whether Europe sources infrastructure from the US or domestic producers.
What the Data Suggest — And What They Don’t
-
Data show a clear growth trajectory for oil & gas pipe demand within the USA (USD 15.8B → ~USD 20.3B from 2025 to 2035).
-
Global oil & gas pipe market is forecast to grow from USD 63.0B in 2025 to USD 81.0B in 2035.
-
Europe is in the midst of a strategic energy shift: increasing imports from the US and reducing reliance on older pipeline gas networks.
However, no concrete measurement exists for European demand for US-manufactured pipes. Any projection is scenario-based and built on structural trends and logical inference, not empirical trade data.
Future Scope & What to Watch (2025–2035)
Key factors influencing potential European demand for US-origin pipes:
-
Trade Data Transparency — more detailed tracking of steel/pipes exports from US to Europe.
-
European pipeline / LNG infrastructure projects — new construction or retrofitting of pipelines may drive demand.
-
Regulatory and industrial policy decisions — policies could favor domestic vs foreign suppliers.
-
Energy-transition trajectory — decarbonization and renewable adoption may reduce fossil-fuel infrastructure demand.
-
Technological innovation and alternative materials — adoption of composite or carbon-fiber pipes could alter steel pipe demand.
Conclusion: A Tentative but Potentially Significant Opportunity
While there is no direct forecast of European demand for US-origin oil & gas pipes, the combination of growing US pipe-production capacity, Europe’s reliance on US energy exports, and global infrastructure expansion suggests a plausible opportunity. US manufacturers may find export markets in Europe between 2025 and 2035, especially for high-spec welded/seamless steel pipes used in upstream, midstream, LNG, and other energy infrastructure.
This remains a scenario-based expectation. Turning it into a robust strategy will require detailed trade-flow intelligence, analysis of European energy projects, procurement policy review, and energy-transition considerations.
