Global Process Gas Compressors Market 2024
Process gas compressors refer to compressors utilized for pressurizing and circulating gases in industrial processes, as well as for the storage and transportation of gases. These compressors are capable of handling various types of gases, including natural gas, industrial gas, inert gas, and cryogenic gases. Additionally, they can recover and recompress process gas to maintain appropriate pressure levels.
In an oil-injected process gas compressor, oil serves as a lubricant and is injected into the compression chamber and bearings to cool the moving parts. The use of oil as a liquid injection is popular due to its effective lubricating and sealing properties, which assist in gas cooling when necessary. This type of compressor is particularly suitable for commercial and industrial applications. The market for oil-injected process gas compressors is projected to reach USD 6.6 billion by 2029, with an estimated market value of USD 4.9 billion in 2023 and a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1% during the forecast period.
Furthermore, the oil and gas sector represents a significant market segment for process gas compressors, with an estimated market value of USD 3.5 billion in 2023 and an expected increase to USD 4.5 billion by 2029, registering a CAGR of 4.0% during the forecast period. Within the oil and gas industry, process gas compressors find application in gas gathering, flash gas retrieval, oil and gas production, and processing activities. In natural gas processing, these compressors are primarily used for off-gas compression, natural gas boosting, demethanizing, nitrogen circulation, and other related purposes.
The Asia-Pacific region is anticipated to witness substantial growth in the process gas compressors market, with an estimated market value of USD 2.4 billion in 2023 and a projected increase to USD 3.3 billion by 2029, reflecting a CAGR of 4.5% during the forecast period. This region, home to major economies such as China, Japan, and India, is experiencing rapid development across various industries, including oil and gas, manufacturing, and power generation. In the oil and gas sector, countries like China and India play significant roles. Given that process gas compressors are integral to multiple stages of the oil and gas supply chain, including natural gas processing, transportation, marine LNG, and refining, the demand for these compressors is poised to grow alongside the expanding oil and gas market in the region.
