土耳其工程设备市场概况
CONSTRUCTION AND MINING MACHINERY
Construction is one of the key sectors in Turkey, being one of the main drivers of private and public investments. As a result of economic reforms Turkey has established a large and strong construction industry in a short time.
Apart from the Middle East and North African market in which Turkish contractors have great share of civil engineering and electromechanical erection work, the former USSR and some European countries have opened their construction market to Turkish Contractors. Today, they are working in four continents and over 70 countries, using all the financial, managerial and technological instruments of international contracting standards. The development of construction industry has resulted in a large and diversified production of building materials sector, a dynamic contracting and engineering services and young, but a well established construction and mining machinery sector.
The share of the construction and mining machinery sector reaches 6.5% of production and 9.6% of exports of the machinery industry of Turkey. Growth of the sector closely depends on the development of the construction sector. Today Turkish construction and engineering companies are able to design, erect, build and operate almost all kinds of civil and industrial projects such as: Dams, hydroelectric and thermal power plants, industrial plants, airports and seaports, large scale petroleum and natural gas pipelines, fertiliser plants, petrochemical complexes and refineries, motorways, tunnels, bridges, large housing projects, hotels and all kinds of sophisticated buildings. In the period of 19722009 about 700 Turkish contractors have completed over 4600 projects in 70 countries. The total value of the projects undertaken by Turkish contractors abroad reached $148 billion in the same period.
Turkey is one of the world’s richest countries in minerals. Excluding petroleum and coal, there are approximately 4,400 mineral deposites in Turkey. Today, 53 different minerals are produced. Turkey is a major producer of boron minerals, feldspar, marble, baryte, celestite, emery, limestone, magnesite, perlite, pumice, copper and chromite. Modern production equipment, the presence of new technologies and methods have been very important factors in the development of the mining sector of Turkey. Developments in the mining sector, especially in the marble production, have accelerated the growth of the mining machinery sector.
