World Steel Association

Worldsteel’s Steel Statistical Yearbook presents a cross-section of steel industry statistics. It contains comprehensive statistics from (1991 - 2013) on crude steel production by process, steel production by product, steel trade by product, apparent steel use, and production of pig iron and directly reduced iron. It also includes data on production and trade of iron ore and trade of scrap as well as data on indirect exports and imports of steel and true steel use. The statistics were collected from members of worldsteel and various international organisations.

This dataset contains monthly blast furnace iron (BFI) and direct reduced iron (DRI) production data.The total for the year is not the sum of the 12 calendar months. This is because annual production is reported separately.Regional and grand totals refer to the countries listed only.Other countries report only annual - and not monthly - data.

Crude steel production statistics for 65 countries are published in the ‘Steel in Figures’ section of worldsteel.org on the 20th of every month.World steel has several sources for the data, including world steel member companies, national statistics offices and regional steel industry associations. The Economics department at world steel collects and compiles the data.European Union (10): Belgium, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, United KingdomEuropean Union (12): European Union (10), Portugal, SpainEuropean Union (15): European Union (12), Austria, Finland, SwedenEuropean Union (25): European Union (15), Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovak Republic, SloveniaEuropean Union (27): European Union (27), Bulgaria, RomaniaC.I.S.: Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Russia, Ukraine, UzbekistanFormer USSR: C.I.S., Estonia, Latvia, LithuaniaNorth America: Canada, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, Trinidad and Tobago, United StatesSouth America: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, VenezuelaAfrica: Algeria, Angola, Congo (Zaire), Egypt, Ghana, Kenya, Libya, Mauritania, Morocco, Nigeria, South Africa, Tunisia, Uganda, ZimbabweMiddle East: Iran, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Qatar, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Syria, United Arab EmiratesAsia & Oceania: Australia, Bangladesh, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Mongolia, Myanmar, New Zealand, North Korea, Pakistan, Philippines, Singapore, Sri Lanka, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam.
