Market Overview

---

The Qatar construction equipment market is projected to experience a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.97% from 2022 to 2028. In 2022, the government increased its infrastructure investments, focusing on the development of roads, airports, highways, and stadiums for the upcoming FIFA World Cup event scheduled later in 2022. The government has allocated $7 billion for the National Vision 2030 plan. Aggressive investments are planned for the development of roadways and highways in Doha, Lusail, and Al Wirrah cities of Qatar in 2022.

According to the World Bank, Qatar’s economy is expected to grow by 3-4% in 2022. However, the country’s long-term growth may be hindered by its overreliance on the oil and gas industry, which is subject to extreme volatility in oil prices that directly impact the industry’s performance.

The Qatar government is undertaking various infrastructure, road, and highway projects across the country. Notable projects include the Sharq Crossing project in Doha ($12 billion), the New Doha Port ($7.4 million), the Qatar Long Distance Railways Project ($3,456 million), the Siraj Al Kharsaah Solar Power Project in Al-Sahaniya ($462 million), the Al Rayyan Stadium ($600 million), the Al Bayt Stadium ($192.3 million), and the North Field Extension ($500 million).

The oil and gas industry in Qatar experienced a strong rebound in 2021, benefiting from a surge in crude oil prices in the global market. Qatar is a leading producer and exporter of oil in the Middle Eastern region, and the rise in oil prices has supported robust economic recovery in 2021.

The ongoing infrastructure and development projects for the World Cup 2022 have led to a sharp increase in the demand for cranes. Luffing jib cranes witnessed high demand in 2021, and a similar trend is expected due to the various mega projects in the pipeline under the National Development Plan 2030.
