Pipeline Monitoring System Market Scope and Segmentation

Market Definition

Pipeline monitoring systems are the solutions deployed for evaluating bacteriological control programs and corrosions in pipelines. For the most part, they collect samples or data without producing hazardous wastes in order to satisfy regulatory oversight requirements. Pipeline monitoring systems work to reduce the danger of potential catastrophes like explosions and fire by assisting in leak detection, analyzing operating conditions, monitoring pipeline networks, and break discovery. This helps increase asset lifespan, optimize productivity, enhance safety and compliance, and improve production. Pipeline monitoring systems are currently offered commercially in a variety of forms, including metallic and non-metallic.

Pipeline Monitoring System Market Dynamics

This section deals with understanding the market drivers, advantages, opportunities, restraints and challenges. All of this is discussed in detail as below:

Drivers

• Growth Of The Pipeline Infrastructure

The pipeline infrastructure has greatly grown as a result of the rise in oil and gas consumption in the majority of major nations. Installation of pipelines for the distribution and transportation of oil and gas products spans many different regions and hundreds of kilometers. Such vast networks of pipelines have increased demand for pipeline monitoring systems. Pipeline companies use sophisticated sensors and monitoring equipment to find leaks in pipeline systems. Companies are concentrating on implementing physical security solutions like aerial and ground monitoring and video surveillance to safeguard pipelines from terrorist attacks and sabotage. Growing pipeline infrastructure will provide a profitable market for monitoring system vendors over the forecasted period.

• Increased Demand for the Metallic Pipelines

The pipeline monitoring system market is largely propelling due to increased demand for metallic pipelines. Metallic pipes further include ductile iron pipes, stainless steel pipes, aluminum pipes, and other varieties such cast-iron pipes, corrugated pipes, and copper pipes. The iron-based pipes can corrode when exposed to highly oxygenated water steam; as a result, end-user industries prefer steel-based pipes. Metallic pipes are more heat-sensitive and less resistant to corrosion than non-metallic pipes. As a result, these beneficial features further boost the overall market’s demand over the forecasted period.

Furthermore, the continuous growth of oil and gas exploration and production activities will further propel the growth rate of pipeline monitoring system market. Additionally, the significant pipeline infrastructure increase will drive market value growth. The significant investments in research and development (R&D) activities are projected to bolster the growth of the market.

Opportunities

• Amplified Investments as well as Spending On Network Monitoring

Oil and gas operators all over the world have increased their spending on infrastructure and network monitoring and are increasing their investment in network monitoring as a result of the increased terrorist threats and cyberattacks on systems. This factor further extends profitable opportunities to the market players in the forecast period of 2022 to 2029.  Modern pipeline facilities make extensive use of information and communication technologies such as Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA), Intelligent Video Surveillance (IVS), Human Machine Interface (HMI) and Programmable Logic Controller (PLCs). When using these technologies, oil and gas businesses can oversee and run their operations remotely due to the creation of a digital pipeline infrastructure.

• Introduction of Advanced Solutions

Additionally, the introduction of the technologically advanced solutions will further expand the future growth of the pipeline monitoring system market. To simplify the work of O&G behemoths in lead detection, a number of leaders have been providing technologically cutting-edge solutions. For instance, Hifi HDS just unveiled a brand-new application for pipeline pig management. In addition, the business provides additional commercial applications with added value in addition to proactive pipeline leak detection.

Restraints/Challenges

• Lack of concerns About Monitoring System Implementation By Operators

The pipeline companies have been reluctant to use cyber and network security solutions for a long time due to a lack of knowledge and exposure. Additionally, the network security solutions provided by IT organizations were largely compartmentalized and lacked depth. As a result, choosing a particular pipeline network monitoring technology is challenging for pipeline operators. Additionally, IT security companies struggle to persuade operators of the importance of physical and network monitoring systems. A significant barrier for monitoring solution providers in the oil and gas sector is operators' lack of knowledge and anxiety about the implementation of monitoring systems.

• Dearth of Funds

The lack of funding prevents the development of ageing infrastructure, leading to poor metering, leaks, and poor management of essential pipeline infrastructures like pipelines, valves, and hydrants.  This factor further challenges the pipeline monitoring system market growth rate. Ageing has become a problem for several industries, including water, oil, gas, and chemicals pipelines. The primary cause of the lack of funding for the pipeline monitoring system is the unwillingness of federal agencies to support research and development. Many small and medium-sized utilities are unwilling to pay these solutions' hefty starting costs. Additionally, the infrastructure for pipelines develops slowly. Infrastructure parts like pipeline pipes, valves, and meters last for decades after installation. As the older solutions are expensive and durable, utilities are reluctant to upgrade pipeline systems.
