Brunei Darussalam Macroeconomic Overview

Brunei Darussalam’s steel sector is principally import‑dependent, with iron and steel imports valued at approximately BND 144.2 million in 2024, down from BND 213.7 million in 2023, reflecting a notable contraction in import growth.

The broader industrial sector, which encompasses manufacturing including steel, contributed around 11.7% of GDP in 2024. Within this, manufacture of LNG and other petroleum and chemical products grew modestly; other manufacturing (including steel‑related industries) was valued at BND 188.5 million in 2024.

Brunei’s overall economy expanded by about 4.2% in real terms in 2024, supported by growth in oil and gas and downstream industries. While specific steel‑sector growth is not separately reported, this macroeconomic backdrop suggests that demand for steel, tied to construction and industrial activity, likely mirrored moderate trends in broader non‑oil manufacturing.
