Midstream Oil & Gas Equipment

Midstream Oil & Gas Equipment

The US market for equipment used in midstream oil and gas infrastructure will fall to $10.5 billion in 2019, remaining well above historical norms even so. Low oil and gas prices will continue to influence the level of upstream activity, reducing the need for ongoing midstream investment. However, several major liquefied natural gas projects and ongoing pipeline construction will continue to generate a high level of equipment demand.
This report segments the midstream equipment industry by type and application. Data is provided in millions of dollars.

Types of midstream oil & gas equipment include:
Pipe
Rail tank cars
Gas processing equipment.
Compressors
Valves
Pumps
Storage tanks
Instrumentation equipment
Other equipment

Of these, pipe will remain the largest category through 2019. While spending on gas processing equipment will fall from very high 2014 levels, it will remain elevated by historical standards in order to handle unprecedented volumes of natural gas production from the eastern US.

Major markets for midstream oil & gas equipment include:
Pipeline
Natural gas processing plants
LNG facilities
Crude by rail and other markets

Gas processing, crude by rail, and LNG infrastructure all saw high levels of investment in 2014. While pipelines remained the largest market, pipeline construction accounted for a much lower share of the total has been the historical norm. Although the status of several approved LNG projects remains uncertain, construction is expected to proceed on a number of projects over the next several years, resulting in a strong market for equipment through the forecast period.
