Outlook

Political tensions fuelling oil prices, favoring GDP and budgets of GCC countries.

Development plans worth billions to keep the demand progressing.

New entrants would continue to take away the market share.

Increase in price of raw materials cannot be ruled out in the short term.

Horizontal and vertical integration would be the way forward.

Depressed realization prices would put pressure on margins of the producers.

Exports from neighboring countries such as Pakistan, Iran and Egypt to continue.

Raw material quarries in Ras Al Khaimah (UAE), Raysut (Oman) and Saudi Arabia to benefit local producers.

Qatar, Oman and Kuwait to remain in the net importer zone in the short to medium term.
