Valued at USD 11.85 billion in 2017, the global pipe coating market is expected to grow to value USD 15.96 billion by the end of 2023 and witness a moderate CAGR of 5.18% during the forecast period of 2018 to 2023. The increasing demand for pipe coatings in the chemical processing industry and the growth of related industries is expected to drive the global market toward an upward trend.
Increasing energy demands has greatly augmented oil & gas activities across the globe. This industry employs the extensive use of pipes, which are a cost-effective method of transportation and storage. In order to ensure longevity and reduced effects of corrosion, pipe coatings are used both internally and externally. The oil & gas industry is expected to be a key driver of market growth during the assessment period as pipes are used for product refining lines, CO2 & water injection lines, transportation of crude & natural gases. Additionally, the growth of crude and natural gas trade has created the need for well-connected pipelines, particularly in regions with emerging economies. Use of pipe coatings to ensure the quality of the pipes and to maintain the quality of the transported material is vital, thus facilitating market growth. Globally there is a prevalence of urbanization with emerging economies experiencing rapid urbanization. The growing demand for appropriate sewage and water treatment processes in these emerging economies is expected to drive pipe coatings market growth. Pipe coatings are crucial in pipes used for sewage and water treatment facility networks as the constant contact of water is likely to increase the risk of corrosion, pipe coatings mitigate this problem. Market players have developed coatings specific to the use of the pipe. For instance cement mortar, coal tar enamel and liquid applied epoxy are used primarily in water transport pipes. Growing global population, increased demand for energy and other consumables have increased the need for well-connected pipes which are properly coated for protection.
Several raw materials are used to create different types of pipe coatings for different purposes. Pigments, dispersants, curing agents, binder & resins, solvents, and additives are some of the raw materials that are used extensively in the development of pipe coating products. The prices of these raw materials are often unstable and tend to fluctuate with a tendency for the price to move upwards making them somewhat expensive. This directly affects the pipe coatings market as these raw materials are crucial, the increasing prices of raw materials are likely to result in increased prices of the final product which in turn, affects the demand for pipe coatings negatively. However, investment in research and development activities has brought about the development of mobile coating technologies which substantially reduced logistic costs incurred in the transportation of pipes. The innovation in the coatings process is leading to the discovery of considerable opportunities for the global market. Another significant factor encouraging expansion of the pipe coatings market is the growing concern regarding the environment which has led end-users to demand products with low emission of volatile organic compounds. The shifting preference for coatings that contain low VOC is expected to facilitate the development of innovative products that meet these demands.
The global pipe coating market is segmented on the basis of product type, surface type, form, end-use, and region. By product type, the market is segmented into thermoplastic polymer coatings, fusion bonded epoxy, metallic coatings, concrete coatings and others. The thermoplastic polymer segment accounts for the largest share of the total market due to a resistance to abrasion and corrosion which makes this material and its various varieties ideal for use in oil & gas pipelines.
By surface type, the market is segmented into internal and external. By form, the market is segmented into liquid and powder. Of these, powder coatings are expected to possess the majority share due to restriction on the use of solvent-based coatings and growing environmental concerns worldwide.
By end-use, the market is segmented into oil & gas industry, marine, water & water treatment, chemical processing and others. The Oil and gas industry is expected to be the biggest consumer of pipe coatings as the industry is growing considerably to meet increasing energy demands. The oil & gas segment is projected to witness a CAGR of 5.28% during the assessment period.
Regional Analysis
The pipe coating market is led by the Asia Pacific, which is additionally projected to be the fastest growing region in the global market during the review period. Rapidly growing oil & gas and chemical processing industries in this region are expected to be major contributors to market growth.
