The report shows that local cement producers in the Gulf region have come under increasing pressure as construction development dwindles and that the situation is worse in Saudi Arabia. The root cause there is that domestic demand has dropped from approximately 17m tons in 1985 to only 11m tons for 1987. As the cost of Saudi produced cement is high, because manufacturers are still amortising capital costs for their high technology plants plus servicing capital loans, cheap imports of cement in particular from Japan have made inroads on the market and exacerbated competition in the region. As is forecast, Saudi producers and importers might join forces which would imply restrictions on the trading of cement in the GCC market. (DÜI-Asd)
