Global Pipeline Monitoring System Market Research Overview (MRFR Insights)

The pipeline monitoring system market is propelling due to the growing demand for metallic pipelines. Metallic pipes include ductile iron, stainless steel, aluminum, and other varieties such as cast iron, corrugated, and copper pipes. The iron-based pipes can rust when exposed to highly oxygenated water steam; as a result, end-users prefer steel-based pipes. Metallic pipes are heat-sensitive and less resistant to corrosion than other pipes. As a result, these improved features further enhance the overall market's demand during the Pipeline Monitoring System market forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact Analysis on pipeline monitoring Industry

During the lockdown, the COVID-19 pandemic has halted the production of many products in the pipeline monitoring systems business. After COVID-19 infection cases began to decline, equipment & machinery producers focused on protecting their operations, staff, and supply networks to respond to urgent emergencies and introduce new working methods.

Pipeline Monitoring System Market Dynamics

Pipeline infrastructure has increased significantly owing to growing oil and gas demand in most major regions. Pipelines for the conveyance and allocation of oil and gas pipeline monitoring systems are being installed across several regions around thousands of km. For instance, in May 2021, Honeywell International will deliver UOP technology to Numaligarh Refinery Ltd, Indian Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas, to generate cleaner-burning diesel fuel and expand crude oil conversion by India's BS-VI emission requirements. Hence, the requirement for pipeline integrity monitoring systems has been prompted by the massive networks of pipelines for the oil & gas, and petroleum sectors.

Market Key Drivers

• Growth of the pipeline infrastructure

The pipeline infrastructure has greatly grown due to the growth in oil and gas consumption in most major nations. The installation of pipelines for the allocation and conveyance of oil and gas products spans various regions and hundreds of km. Such vast networks of pipelines have expanded the demand for pipeline integrity monitoring technologies. Pipeline companies utilize sophisticated sensors and monitoring tools to find leaks in pipeline systems. Scada pipeline monitoring companies are focusing on implementing physical security solutions, including aerial & ground monitoring and video surveillance, to guard pipelines against terrorist attacks and sabotage.

• Increased demand for the metallic pipelines

Market Key Restraints:

• Shortage of apprehensions regarding monitoring system implementation by operators

Pipeline enterprises have long been wary of utilizing cyber and network security solutions owing to a requirement for more vulnerability and understanding. Furthermore, IT organizations' network security solutions were not extensive, and most solutions were only presented in silos. This makes it challenging for pipeline operators to select exact pipeline network monitoring systems. IT security firms also require help convincing operators of the value of physical and network monitoring systems. The requirement for more awareness and apprehension about adopting monitoring systems among operators is a significant roadblock for monitoring solution suppliers in the oil and gas industry.

• Dearth of funds

Market Key Opportunities:

• Introduction of advanced solutions

The introduction of technologically enhanced solutions will further enhance the future Pipeline Monitoring System market growth. Several leaders have been providing technologically cutting-edge solutions to facilitate the work of O&G behemoths in lead detection. For illustration, Hifi HDS just revealed a brand-new application for pipeline pig administration. In addition, the business delivers additional commercial applications with added value to proactive pipeline leak detection.

• Growing investments, as well as investing in network monitoring

Pipeline Monitoring System Market Segmentation

Insights by Pipe Type

Based on pipe type, the Pipeline monitoring system market has been divided into metallic, non-metallic, and others. The metallic category held a major market share in 2021 as they are less corrosion-resistant and more repetitive to heat. Besides this, non-metallic was the fastest-growing category due to the petroleum industry's growing demand for non-metallic pipes.

Insights by Solution

Based on the solution, the Pipeline monitoring system market segmentation is leak detection, pipeline break detection, operating condition, and others. The pipeline break detection category had a major market share in 2021 due to the growing demand for pipeline break detection in the natural gas industry. However, the operating condition was the fastest growing category as it is more user-friendly.

Insights by Technology

Based on technology, the Pipeline monitoring system market segmentation is ultrasonic, PIGs, smart ball, magneticnflux leakage, fiber optic technology, and others. The magneticnflux leakage category had a prominent market share in 2021 due to its highly portable and effective technique for detecting subsurface cracks. Besides this, the smart ball was the fastest-growing category as it completed long inspections in a single deployment.

Insights by End-Use Industry

By end-use industry, the market has been categorized into crude & refined petroleum, water & wastewater, and others. In 2021 the crude & refined petroleum category had a prominent share of the market due to the increasing adoption of pipeline monitoring technologies in pipeline integrity monitoring system industry. However, water & wastewater was the fastest growing category due to growing corrosion and bacteriological control programs.
