Growing Oil & Gas Industry Creating Huge Demand For Steel Pipe Coatings, States Fact.MR

As per a new report published by market research and competitive intelligence provider, the global steel pipe coatings market exceeds a valuation of US$ 8.1 Bn, and is set to expand at a CAGR of 4.7% over the forecast period of 2021 to 2031.

The construction of oil and gas pipelines has a history of more than 100 years. Pipeline transportation is an effective transmission method for water, oil, gas, and other fluid media. As such, preventing pipeline corrosion has become a prime challenge across the globe. Therefore, improving anticorrosion technology to reduce economic losses due to corrosion is a long-term issue in the anti-corrosion industry.

With the fast growth of the oil and gas industry and rapid expansion of pipelines across the globe, companies operating in the oil & gas industry are demanding more resilient solutions for pipeline corrosion protection. Crude oil is corrosive in nature and steel pipelines with anti-corrosion properties are the best option for transporting crude from one place to another.

It has been observed from the past several years that the oil & gas industry has experienced a high volume of loss due to corrosion. Demand for steel pipe coatings came into existence after this observation, and as a result, coating manufacturers are experiencing high sales and revenue generation.

Key Takeaways from Market Study

• Oil & gas end use is expected to register a CAGR of 4.6% over the forecast period, to be valued at US$ 4.5 Bn by 2031-end.
• Water transportation is estimated to account for 24.8% market value share by 203- end, and is expected to gain 48 BPS in its market share.
• Automotive end use is estimated to account for 14.4% market value share by 2031-end, but is expected to lose 31 BPS in its market share.
• Marine end use is projected to grow 1.6X in value, while automotive end use is projected to grow 1.5X in value by 2031.
