Earlier Report Observations

The wood fuel market in Qatar contracted from 38 128 m³ in 2018 to 31 794 m³ in 2022, before rebounding to 37 195 m³ in 2023. The recovery in 2023 was driven by rising demand for wood due to population growth, which led to a significant increase in imports.

Domestic production remained relatively stable throughout the period, declining only slightly from 5 116 m³ to 5 097 m³. Market volume fluctuations were primarily influenced by changes in import levels, which fell from 33 012 m³ in 2018 to 26 692 m³ in 2022, then jumped to 32 098 m³ in 2023.
