Submersible Pump Market Restraints & Challenges
The key restraints and challenges in Submersible Pump market are high initial investment and maintenance cost, stringent government regulations, and limited availability of skilled labor. Besides, elevated water stress levels may hamper the market growth to some extent. For instance, according to a report published by the International Resource Panel, demand for water will exceed supply by 40% by 2030, pushing governments to invest USD 200 billion per year in upstream water supplies. It is critical to isolate water use from economic growth in order to avoid the impending problem. In addition, new energy efficiency standards that are to be incorporated may require redesigning of pumps by manufacturers, which may incur high costs and time, thereby restraining the market growth.
Submersible Pump Market Segmentation
The Submersible Pump market report is bifurcated on the basis of type, sector, operation, power rating, solution, and region.
Submersible Pump Market by Type
On the basis of type, submersible pumps market segmented into electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic. The electrical segment is anticipated to dominate the market during the forecast period. The segment held over half of the submersible pump market share in 2022 and it is anticipated to grow further at a CAGR of 6.8% during the forecast period. This is attributed to the ability of these pumps to handle both liquids and solids. In addition, the increasing water needs in residential & commercial complexes in conjunction with rising concerns toward sewage & wastewater treatment are boosting the product adoption. Adding to that, a substantial rise in water management activities to promote clean water for drinking and agriculture applications will positively boost market growth.
Submersible Pump Market by Sector
Based on the sector, it is analyzed across industrial, agricultural, domestic, and municipal. The industrial segment is further segmented into wastewater, construction & mining, energy & power, and others. Similarly, the municipal segment is further bifurcated into clean water and wastewater. The industrial segment dominated the market in 2022 accounting for over half of the submersible pump market size and is anticipated to grow at a rate of 4.6% from 2023 to 2032. Various companies are offering submersible pumps specifically for industrial use. For instance, Atlas Copco offers a WEDA range of electrical submersible pumps. The WEDA range is up to 40% lighter in weight and has high wear resistance and simple service. The company offers WEDA D, WEDA S, and WEDA L pumps in the segment of electrical submersible pumps.
Submersible Pump Market by Operation
By operation, it is categorized into single stage and multi stage. The single-stage segment dominated the market during the forecast period. On the other hand, the multi-stage segment is anticipated to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. Different companies are launching new single-stage centrifugal pumps to boost its product portfolio. For instance, Sulzer launched a new CPE end-suction single-stage centrifugal pump. The new CPE ANSI process pumps are specifically designed to exceed the strictest energy regulations for all industries as well as the requirements of ASME B73.1. With revolutionary hydraulics and high efficiency, they offer low life cycle costs.
Submersible Pump Market by Power Rating
By power rating, it is divided into below 1 HP, 1-5 HP, 6-15 HP, and above 15 HP. The 6-15 HP segment held the largest share of the market during the forecast period. Whereas, the above 15 HP segment is anticipated to witness the fastest growth during the forecast period. The rising exploration activities for new water resources are expected to propel the global submersible pump market growth during the forecast period.

COVID-19 Impact
The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the submersible pumps market. The slowdown was mainly due to economic contractions, resulting from a halt in investments from various end-use industries. For instance, in 2020, the oil and gas industry got struck by the COVID-19 impact far more significantly than any other shocks that the sector came across in the past, and submersible pumps are widely used in the oil and gas industry. The oil prices that started declining at the end of the first quarter were slashed entirely by the end of April. The OPEC basket benchmark crude oil prices, which at the starting of 2020 were USD 68.89 per barrel, came down to USD 12.41 per barrel by the end of April, which affected the market negatively in the first half of 2020. Sudden outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic had led to the decelerating demand for submersible pumps in the oil & gas industry, along with temporary halt in construction activities leading to cancellation of several contracts for submersible pumps.
