Pipeline Services Market Analysis

The market for pipeline services is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 3.9% during the forecast period of 2020 - 2025. As of 2019, there were approximately 145,353 miles of pipelines planned and under-construction, of which 94,773 miles are in the engineering and design phase, while 50,580 are in various stages of construction. The natural gas pipeline network is expected to grow in parallel to the increase in natural gas demand, which in turn is expected to positively impact the global pipeline services market in the coming years. Therefore, increasing natural gas pipeline infrastructure is expected to drive the market over the forecast period. However, alternate modes of transport primarily via marine vessels is expected to hinder the market growth.

  • Intelligent Pigging dominates the market with the technological advancements, which are helping in improving capabilities and benefits of the intelligent pigging, in turn, is driving the demand for these operations.
  • The upcoming pipeline projects which are under construction and planning stage globally are expected to create tremendous market opportunities in years to come.
  • North America is expected to dominate the market with majority of the demand coming from the countries such as the United States and Mexico.

Pipeline Services Market Trends

This section covers the major market trends shaping the Pipeline Services Market according to our research experts:

Intelligent Pigging to be a Significant Market

  • Intelligent pigging is used for inspecting the pipelines. It is widely used to gather important data, such as the presence and location of corrosion or other irregularities on the inner walls of the pipe.
  • Since 2014, the government regulations dictate the pipeline operators must carry intelligent pigging once in 2.5 years, in turn, almost doubling the frequency of intelligent pigging in India, per km of pipeline which helps in driving the market during the forecast period.
  • There are mainly two types of intelligent pigging operations, magnetic flux leakage (MFL) pigging and ultrasonic pigging. Magnetic flux leakage pigs can be used in both liquid and gas pipelines and does not require any liquid coolant as in ultrasonic pigging. Magnetic flux leakage pigs can detect and measure metal loss or corrosion and cracks and weld defects even in thin-walled pipelines, while ultrasonic pigs fail to identify and measure thin-walled pipelines accurately.
  • The intelligent pigging can carry out many measurements, including geometry measurement, metal-loss detection, leak detection, pipeline profiling and mapping, temperature and pressure recording, bend measurement and curvature monitoring, product sampling, photographic inspection, wax deposit measurement, and crack detection.
  • Therefore, due to technological advancements, the demand for intelligent pigging is expected to increase at a significant growth which, in turn, drives the demand for pipeline service market.

North America to Dominate the Market

  • As the demand for energy produced in North America continues to grow, the exploration and production would continue to move further towards harsh environments. In particular, the recent discovery of certain new extraction techniques has opened multiple oil & gas shale regions in extremely remote areas.
  • In the United States, approximately 70% of crude oil and petroleum products are shipped through pipelines. In 2018, the United States crude oil production was 10.9 mb/d, an increase by 1.6 mb/d from 2017. Furthermore, it is expected to reach 12.1 mb/d in 2019 and 12.9 mb/d in 2020. Most of the increased production is expected to be generated from Texas and New Mexico.
  • More than 60% of electric generating capacity installed in 2018 was fueled by natural gas. Almost 90% (19.3 GW) of the natural gas-fired capacity in the United States added in 2018 were combined-cycle generators, the most efficient natural gas-fired generating technology. Pennsylvania accounted for almost 25% (4.4 GW) of all 2018 domestic natural gas additions, and three other states namely Maryland, Virginia, and Florida accounted for about 30%.
  • Unlocking the hydrocarbon resources in low permeability shale formations, the United States becomes one of the leading producers of oil and gas across the world and is expected to remain the same during the forecast period.
  • In Canada, approximately 97% of natural gas and petroleum products are shipped through pipelines.
  • Therefore, transportation of the produced crude oil & natural gas from remote locations is expected to drive the overall pipeline market during the forecast period.
