natgillin/translations-raw huggingface dataset:
Faktisk har kontrolbesøg allerede vist: i) en reduktion i antallet af skiftehold (som oftest fra 18 til 15 om ugen), ii) øget brug af fratrædelsesordninger og midlertidige afskedigelser og iii) længerevarende lukninger i ferieperioder.
Indeed, verification visits have already shown: (i) a reduction in shifts (most commonly from 18 to 15 per week), (ii) increasing use of redundancy schemes and of staff temporary lay offs, (iii) extended closures during the holiday period.
Der mindes om, at tidligere undersøgelser allerede har vist, at EF-erhvervsgrenen ved kapacitetsudnyttelsesgrader på under 75 % sandsynligvis ikke fungerer på en holdbar måde (jf. betragtning 71).
It is recalled that past investigations have already shown that at capacity utilisation rates of below 75 % the Community industry is unlikely to perform in a sustainable way (see recital 71 above).
EF-erhvervsgrenens salg til Fællesskabet (mængder og priser)
EC Sales of the Community industry (volumes and prices)
EF-erhvervsgrenens salg på EF-markedet forventes at falde betydeligt af samme grund som nævnt i betragtning 99, i hvert fald i takt med forbrugsnedgangen, men sandsynligvis endnu mere ifølge prognoserne fra EF-producenterne i stikprøven.
Sales of the Community industry in the EC market are forecasted to decrease significantly, for the same reasons explained at recital 99 above, at least in line with the decrease of consumption but probably even more, according to the forecasts made by the sample Community producers.
Da EF-erhvervsgrenen forventes at miste yderligere markedsandele på EF-markedet til kinesisk dumpingimport, vil den være tvunget til at satse mere på eksportmarkederne.
Since the Community industry is forecasted to further lose market share on the EC market to dumped Chinese imports, it will be forced to rely more heavily on export markets.
Virksomhederne i stikprøven har faktisk rapporteret om en tilbagegang i salget til Fællesskabet, der overstiger tilbagegangen i den samlede produktion, da produktionen med henblik på eksport ifølge virksomhederne forbliver ret stabil sammenlignet med produktionen af varer til EF-markedet.
The sampled companies have indeed reported a decrease in sales in the Community higher than the decrease in total production, because production for exports would remain rather stable in comparison to the production of goods destined to the Community market.
Det skyldes, at EF-erhvervsgrenens eksportaktivitet er koncentreret på OCTG-rør (35 %), ledningsrør (25 %) og kraftproduktion (13 %), hvorimod rør til maskiner og bygge- og anlægsvirksomhed kun tegnede sig for 16 % af EF-erhvervsgrenens eksport (sammenlignet med 60 % af dens salg til Fællesskabet, jf. betragtning 73).
This is because the export activity of the Community industry is concentrated on OCTG (35 %), line pipes (25 %) and power generation (13 %), while mechanical and construction pipes only accounted for 16 % of the Community industry’s exports (compared to 60 % of their EC sales, see recital 73 above).
EF-erhvervsgrenen har fremlagt oplysninger, der viser, at salgsmængden allerede er faldet og/eller forventes at falde betydeligt, især inden for visse markedssegmenter, hvor tilstedeværelsen af kinesiske varer gør sig mere gældende (f.eks. maskiner, bygge- og anlægsvirksomhed og ledningsrør).
The Community industry has submitted information showing that sale volumes have already decreased and/or are forecasted to decrease significantly, in particular on certain market segments where the presence of the Chinese goods exert more its penetrating strength (i.e. mechanicals and constructions and line pipes).
For så vidt angår salgspriserne, viser prognoserne fra producenterne i stikprøven, at de generelt forbliver stabile, for så vidt angår priserne i UP.
As far as sale prices are concerned, these have been forecasted by the sampled producers to remain stable on average in respect to the prices in the IP.
Udviklingen inden for salgspriserne er imidlertid sandsynligvis ikke fuldt repræsentativ med hensyn til det reelle prisfald, som forventes at finde sted for de enkelte produkter.
However, the development in selling prices would not be fully representative of the real price reduction which is expected to take place on a product by product basis.
Ifølge virksomhederne kan det skyldes, at EF-erhvervsgrenen prøver at omlægge produktionen til rør af højere kvalitet på grund af et prismæssigt pres fra kinesisk import.
This would be because the Community industry tries to move to higher grade pipes, due to price pressure from Chinese imports.
I henhold til virksomhederne vil andelen af produkter af en lavere kvalitet i EF-erhvervsgrenens samlede salg følgelig falde betydeligt mere end det gennemsnitlige fald i det samlede salg, og dermed vil vægten af varer med en højere salgspris blive forholdsmæssigt højere.
As a consequence, the share of lower grade products in the total sales of the Community Industry would decrease considerably more than the average decrease in total sales, thereby the weight of the products which have a higher selling price will be proportionally higher.
Således forventes det gennemsnitlige prisfald at være mere begrænset end prisfaldet for de varer, der er i mere direkte konkurrence med den kinesiske dumpingimport.
This is the reason why the average decrease in price is forecasted to be more limited than the price decrease which will be suffered by those products which are in more direct competition with the Chinese dumped imports.
EF-erhvervsgrenens priser og omkostninger
Prices/costs of the CI
Virksomhederne i stikprøven blev også anmodet om at fremlægge oplysninger dels om den forventede omkostningsudvikling for den pågældende vare dels om de vigtigste omkostninger.
The sampled companies were also requested to submit data relating to the forecasted evolution of their costs for the product concerned, as well as the major costs.
Af de indsendte oplysninger fremgår det, at en generel omkostningsstigning er sandsynlig.
The data submitted shows that an overall increase in cost is likely.
Det skyldes to centrale faktorer.
This is due to two main factors.
For det første forventes arbejdskraftens tilbagegang som følge af lavere produktion og kapacitetsudnyttelsesgrader ikke at medføre et tilsvarende fald i lønomkostningerne, da anvendelsen af midlertidige afskedigelser og nedsat arbejdstid kan føre til en stigning i de gennemsnitlige lønomkostninger.
Firstly, the decrease in manpower caused by the lower production and capacity utilisation rates is expected to not result in a corresponding decrease of labour costs because of the use of temporary unemployment and reduced working hours which may increase the average cost of labour.
For det andet betyder ændringen i varesortimentet i retning af varer i den højere prisklasse (om end ikke nødvendigvis med en højere rentabilitet), at også omkostningerne generelt stiger (herunder omkostninger til råvarer).
Secondly, the change in product mix towards high-value products (although not necessarily with a higher profitability) means that on average also costs (including raw material costs) would increase.
Desuden vil den åbenbare effektivitetsnedgang som følge af mindre mængder og en ikke optimal kapacitetsudnyttelse føre til en forholdsmæssig stigning i generalomkostningerne.
Moreover, the obvious decrease in efficiency due to the reduced volumes and sub-optimal capacity utilisation would lead to a proportional increase in fixed costs.
EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel
Market share of the CI
EF-erhvervsgrenens markedsandel forventes at falde med nogle procentpoint mellem UP og 2009 som følge af det stigende pres fra kinesisk dumpingimport (jf. betragtning 93 og 101) på et stærkt faldende EF-marked.
The market share of the Community industry is forecasted to decrease by some percentage points between the IP and 2009, due to the increased pressure from dumped Chinese imports (see recitals 93 and 101 above), in a strongly decreasing European market.
EF-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet
Profitability of the CI
Der erindres om, at det allerede tidligere har vist sig, at EF-erhvervsgrenens rentabilitet var særlig lav i perioder, hvor kapacitetsudnyttelsesgraden var på under 75 %.
It is recalled that already in the past it was shown that the profitability of the Community industry was particularly low in periods where the capacity utilisation rate was below 75 %.
Det har vist sig at være tilfældet i den periode, der var omfattet af den undersøgelse, der blev indledt ved Rådets forordning (EF) nr. 954/2006 [5], da kapacitetsudnyttelsen var faldet betydeligt som følge af presset fra dumpingimporten, bl.a. fra Kroatien, Rusland og Ukraine.
This has been proven to be the case during the period covered by the investigation concluded by Council Regulation (EC) No 954/2006 [5], when the capacity utilisation had decreased significantly due to the pressure of dumped imports, inter alia, from Croatia, Russia and Ukraine.
Konklusion for så vidt angår den sandsynlige udvikling af EF-forbruget, importen fra det pågældende land og EF-erhvervsgrenens situation efter undersøgelsesperioden
Conclusion on the likely development of Community consumption, imports from the country concerned and the situation of the Community industry after the investigation period
Ovennævnte analyse af den sandsynlige udvikling af forbruget, importen af kinesiske varer til dumpingpriser og væsentlige skadesindikatorer for perioden mellem UP og 2009 (jf. betragtning 90 til 111) viser, at der i øjeblikket allerede finder en betydelig forværring af EF-erhvervsgrenens økonomiske situation sted, og at den forventes at fortsætte eller sågar forværres i den nærmeste fremtid.
The above analysis relating to the likely development of consumption, imports of dumped Chinese products and major injury indicators for the period between the IP and 2009 (see recitals 90 to 111 shows that a considerable deterioration of the economic situation of the Community industry is already taking place and is foreseen to continue if not further aggravate in the near future.
Det fremgår klart af en tydelig nedgang i produktionen, salgsmængderne til Fællesskabet, markedsandele og rentabiliteten (ca. -13 procentpoint).
This is clearly indicated by an evident reduction in production, EC sales volumes, market shares and profitability (around -13 percentage points).
Denne evaluering blev udarbejdet ud fra data vedrørende prognoser, der blev underbygget af tilstrækkeligt detaljerede oplysninger.
This assessment was made on the basis of data which relate to forecasts supported by sufficiently detailed evidence.
Navnlig kunne tendenserne for perioden efter UP og indtil udgangen af 2008 i vid udstrækning verificeres allerede under de afholdte kontrolbesøg.
In particular, the trends reflected for the period after the IP and until the end of 2008 could to a large extent be verified already in the course of the verification visits which took place.
Yderligere oplysninger (især om faldet i salgspriser og -mængder for 2009) blev fremlagt i løbet af undersøgelsen.
Further evidence (particularly relating to decrease in selling prices and volumes and for the year 2009) was submitted in the course of the investigation.
Selv om der ikke er nogen sikkerhed, hvilket gælder alle prognoser, for, at tendenserne konkretiseres præcist som forventet, anses det for meget sandsynligt, at det vil være tilfældet.
Even if, as in the case of any forecast, there can be no certainty that the indicated trends will realise exactly as expected, it is considered very likely that this will be the case.
Det konkluderes derfor, at EF-erhvervsgrenen allerede siden de første måneder af 2009 har befundet sig i en situation med væsentlig skade.
It is therefore concluded that the Community industry has been facing a situation of material injury during the first months of 2009 already.
Trussel om skade
Threat of injury
I overensstemmelse med grundforordningens artikel 3, stk. 9, blev det undersøgt hvilke eventuelle omstændigheder der kunne skabe en situation, hvor dumpingimport ville medføre skade for EF-erhvervsgrenen.
In accordance with Article 3(9) of the basic Regulation, it was examined which facts, if any, would create a situation in which the dumped imports would cause injury to the Community industry.
I den forbindelse blev især følgende taget i betragtning: i) udviklingen i dumpingimporten, ii) eksistensen af fri kapacitet hos eksportørerne, iii) prisniveauet for kinesisk import og iv) lagerbeholdningernes størrelse.
In this context, specific consideration was given to: (i) the development of dumped imports, (ii) the availability of free capacities of the exporters, (iii) the level of prices of the Chinese imports and (iv) the level of inventories.
Udviklingen i dumpingimportmængden
Development of volumes of dumped imports
Importen fra Kina er steget bemærkelsesværdigt fra 26000 til 543000 t mellem 2005 og UP, jf. betragtning 59.
Imports from the PRC have spectacularly increased from 26000 to 543000 tonnes between 2005 and the IP, as explained at recital 59 above.
Denne import har konsekvent fundet sted til meget lave priser, som i betydelig grad underbyder andre priser fra andre leverandører i EF-markedet.
These imports have consistently taken place at very low prices, which significantly undercut any other price offered in the Community market from other supply sources.
Den væsentlige stigning i markedsandelen for denne dumpingimport (jf. betragtning 61) bekræfter, at udviklingen af denne import ikke var en følge af en stigning i efterspørgslen.
The substantial increase of the market share held by these dumped imports (see recital 61 above) confirms that the development of these imports was not the consequence of an increase in demand.
Tværtimod synes en sådan udvikling hovedsageligt at skyldes en underliggende strategi, der bygger på at skifte det marked ud, hvor dumpingimporten fra andre kilder tidligere fandt sted (jf. betragtning 141) for således med magt at trænge ind på et nyt marked.
On the contrary, it would appear that such development was for its major part driven by an underlying strategy based on substituting the market place previously held by dumped imports from other sources (see recital 141 below), with the objective of penetrating aggressively a new market.
Stigningen i importpriserne, der blev konstateret i anden halvdel af 2008, skyldtes udelukkende en væsentlig stigning i råvareomkostningerne, der har medført en global stigning i omkostningerne for sømløse rør, og er ikke udtryk for en intention om at nedbringe prisforskellen i forhold til priserne fra andre leverandører på EF-markedet.
The increase in import prices observed in the second part of 2008 was entirely due to a substantial increase in raw material costs, which has translated in a worldwide increase of the costs for seamless pipes and tubes and does not correspond to any intention to reduce the price differential with the prices of other suppliers in the EC market.
På den baggrund er det opfattelsen, at der ikke kan konstateres en direkte forbindelse mellem udviklingen i forbruget og niveauet for dumpingimporten.
On this basis, it is considered that a direct correlation between development of consumption and level of the dumped imports cannot be established.
Det er i stedet opfattelsen, at stigningen i dumpingimporten mellem 2005 og UP ville have fundet sted alligevel, selv i en situation med stabilt forbrug med den eneste forskel, at den ville have haft en større indvirkning på de andre leverandørers markedsandele.
It is instead considered that the increase in dumped imports between 2005 and the IP would have taken place anyway, even in a situation of stable consumption, with the only difference that it would have impacted more on the market shares of the other suppliers.
Det kan ikke udelukkes, at det allerede i den betragtede periode ville have forvoldt væsentlig skade for EF-erhvervsgrenen, hvis forbruget ikke var steget i det omfang, det rent faktisk gjorde.
It cannot be excluded that already during the period considered, should consumption have not increased at the pace at which it actually did, this would have caused material injury to the Community industry.
Det er derfor opfattelsen, at en nedadgående tendens i den overordnede situation, som EF-erhvervsgrenen befinder sig i, ikke vil have nogen væsentlig indvirkning på udviklingen af dumpingimportmængden.
Therefore, it is considered that a downward trend in the overall situation of the Community market would not have any considerable impact on the development of the volumes of dumped imports.
Efter al sandsynlighed vil den aggressive strategi, der har været anvendt til at trænge ind på EF-markedet i den betragtede periode, fortsætte med det overordnede formål at opnå markedsandele gennem dumpingimport til lave priser på bekostning af andre økonomiske aktører.
In all likelihood, the aggressive strategy used to penetrate the Community market during the period considered will continue, with the overall objective of gaining market shares at the expenses of the other economic actors with dumped low-priced imports.
Det kan derfor konkluderes, at ifølge de seneste oplysninger kan importmængden fra Kina i det mindste anses for stabil.
It can therefore be concluded that, according to the most recent information available, the volume of imports from the PRC can be considered as being at least stable.
I den forbindelse skal det bemærkes, at selv om udviklingen inden for dumpingimporten på kort sigt ville vise en anden tendens sammenlignet med tidligere, dvs. at den ville være stabil eller begynde at falde, bør denne oplysning altid ses og analyseres i relation til udviklingen i forbruget.
In this respect, it is noted that, even in the case where the development of the dumped imports would show in the short term a different trend in comparison to the past, i.e. they would remain stable or start to decrease, this information should always be read and analysed in the context of the development of consumption.
Med andre ord bør resultaterne i forbindelse med denne faktor ikke baseres på en enkelt betragtning i forbindelse med udviklingen inden for dumpingimportmængden i absolutte tal, men bør tage højde for den markedskontekst, i hvilken denne udvikling finder sted, og hvorvidt den kan have medført en stigning eller et fald i markedsandelen for denne dumpingimport.
In other words, the findings concerning this factor should not be based on a simple observation of the development of the volume of dumped imports in absolute terms, but should take due account of the market context in which this development is taking place and of whether or not they might have resulted in an increase or decrease of the market share held by these dumped imports.
Ud fra de tilgængelige oplysninger er det klart, at dumpingimporten har udvist en væsentlig stigning i markedsandele i den betragtede periode; samtidig har der ikke været tegn på, at denne udvikling ville ophøre eller ændre sig i en periode, hvor efterspørgslen allerede var begyndt at falde.
From the information available, it is clear that not only the dumped imports have shown a substantial increase of their market shares during the period considered, but they have also shown no sign of stopping or reversing this trend in a period when demand had already started to contract.
Følgelig forventes markedsandelen af kinesisk dumpingimport at stige (jf. betragtning 96).
As a consequence, the market share of the dumped Chinese imports is set to increase (see recital 96 above).
Det konkluderes derfor, at presset fra denne dumpingimport på EF-markedet sandsynligvis vil stige væsentligt i betragtning af den forventede væsentlige forbrugsnedgang.
Consequently, it is concluded that, given the expected substantial decrease in consumption, the pressure of these dumped imports on the Community market is likely to increase substantially.
Eksistensen af fri kapacitet hos eksportørerne
Availability of free capacity of the exporters
Men selv hvis man bare tager besvarelserne fra de kinesiske eksportører i stikprøven i betragtning, kan det konkluderes, at der findes en væsentlig produktionskapacitet i Kina set i lyset af det forhold, at det samlede EF-forbrug blev beregnet til at være 3300000 t i UP.
However, even by just considering the replies of the sampled Chinese exporters, it can be concluded that, in the light of the fact that the total Community consumption was calculated to be 3300000 tonnes during the IP, there is substantial available production capacity in China.
Dertil kommer, at klageren fremlagde troværdige oplysninger om, at der i januar 2009 er givet to nye anlæg i opdrag til fremstilling af sømløse rør i Kina.
In addition, the complainant submitted credible information about the commissioning of two new seamless pipe plants in the PRC in January 2009.
Disse to anlæg, hver med en kapacitet på ca. 400000 t, har kapacitet til at forsyne en fjerdedel af EF-markedet alene.
These two plants, with a capacity of around 400000 tonnes each, have the capacity to supply one quarter of the EC market alone.
Det kan derfor konkluderes, at i løbet af den betragtede periode har de kinesiske eksportører øget deres tilbøjelighed til at eksportere væsentligt, hvilket gav sig udslag i en meget betydelig eksportstigning i absolutte tal, da det samlede salg fra producenterne i stikprøven steg med mere end 56 % i den betragtede periode.
It can therefore be concluded that over the period considered the Chinese exporters have substantially increased their inclination to export, which translated in a very considerable increase of exports in absolute terms, since the total sales of sampled producers grew by more than 56 % during the period considered.
Der er ingen tegn på, at denne tendens, som er den kombinerede virkning af en produktionsstigning plus en stigning i eksportkvoten, ændres i den nærmeste fremtid.
There is no indication that this trend, which is the combined effect of an increase in production with an increase of the rate of export, should be reversed in the near future.
Procentdelen af den kinesiske eksport til Fællesskabet (som en procentdel af den samlede kinesiske eksport) steg markant i den betragtede periode fra 1 % i 2005 til 9 % i UP.
The percentage of Chinese exports to the Community (as a percentage of total Chinese exports) significantly increased during the period considered from 1 % in 2005 to 9 % during the IP.
Det bekræfter, at i den betragtede periode fandt der allerede et betydeligt skift sted i eksportaktiviteterne, og Fællesskabet indtager nu en mere betydningsfuld plads i de kinesiske eksportørers overordnede markedsstrategi.
This confirms that during the period considered a considerable shift has already taken place in the exporting activities and the Community has gained importance in the overall market strategy of the Chinese exporters.
De andre store markeder er USA med 36 % (en stigning fra 31 % i 2007), Algeriet (6 %, en stigning fra 2 % i 2006) og Sydkorea (6 %, en stigning fra 3 % i 2005).
The other main markets are the USA with 36 % (up from 31 % in 2007), Algeria (6 %, up from 2 % in 2006) and South Korea (6 %, up from 3 % in 2005).
På den baggrund kan det forventes, at en stor del af den ekstra kapacitet, der er skabt for nylig, vil blive omdirigeret til EF-markedet.
On this basis, it can be expected that a significant part of the newly created excess capacity will be directed to the EC market.
Endvidere kan der snarest forventes en kraftig indskrænkning af nogle af disse markeder, især USA, således at mængder, der frigøres fra disse markeder, let kan omdirigeres til EU.
Moreover, a significant shrinking of some of these markets, and in particular of the US market, can be expected shortly so that the volumes freed from those markets could be easily re-directed to the EC.
Denne omdirigering har måske ikke hidtil rigtig fundet sted i noget større omfang, da priserne på EF-markedet ifølge kinesiske statistikker og oplysninger fra kinesiske producenter i stikprøven indtil nu har været noget lavere end på andre markeder.
This re-direction might not have taken place more substantially until now because, according to Chinese statistics and information collected from the sampled Chinese producers, the prices in the EC market have been so far somewhat lower than in other markets.
