The Progressing Cavity Pump Market is estimated to be valued at USD 3.92 billion in 2025 and is expected to reach USD 5.67 billion by 2032, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.4% from 2025 to 2032.
Progressing cavity pumps have enabled efficient transfer of viscous fluids in various industries. The technology utilizes a helical screw rotor that rotates inside a double helix bore of a stator, progressively drawing fluid into cavities while transporting it. Since its invention in the 1930s, progressing cavity pump design has advanced to accommodate higher flow rates and pressures. The pumps offer gentle, low-shear handling of delicate liquids and pastes. They require minimal maintenance and can handle fluids with impurities without risk of pipeline blockages. Growing application in water and wastewater treatment, mining, food processing, and other industrial sectors is expected to drive demand for progressing cavity pumps in the coming years.
Market Dynamics
Rising global energy demand along with investments in oil & gas production and infrastructure development are major factors driving the progressing cavity pump market. Growth in mining and minerals extraction especially for applications such as slurry transport is also fueling market revenue. However, high initial costs compared to centrifugal pumps can restrict market adoption. Development of smart pump systems with real-time monitoring capabilities presents an opportunity for manufacturers to increase sales. Rising focus on wastewater treatment projects worldwide also provide new prospects. Intensifying competition amongst vendors increases pressure on lowering product costs. Equipment standardization remains a challenge due to diverse application requirements.
