Market Dynamics:
Driver:
Increasing Use in Oil & Gas and Healthcare Sectors
On-going expansion of the oil & gas infrastructure has positively impacted oil production activities, which is also helping to boost the production of petrochemicals globally. For safe and effective storage and transportation of cryogenic gases, valves are used. Their primary functions include suitable integrity pressure protection, emergency shutdowns, and operation in -196 °C temperatures. he food & beverage industry is demanding for cryogenic valves. Competitive pricing and efficient working of these valves are making them an ideal choice in the food & beverage industry. Besides, these valves do not change the food's flavor, color, or other sensory qualities due to which they are highly preferred by the aforementioned end user. The market is also being supported by increasing utilization of unique valves in the healthcare sector for cryosurgery.
Restraint:
Stringent regulations
In addition, numerous stringent regulations pertaining to the manufacturing and maintenance of valves may have a minor but noticeable influence on the market. Adoption of valves has elevated with introduction of governmental regulations towards environment and pollution control. Furthermore, some of the regulations and acts introduced by ASEAN countries for waste and wastewater management are Government regulation number 82, 2001 for water quality management and wastewater controlling introduced in Indonesia.
Opportunity:
High growth of refining and power generation industries can provide major growth opportunities
Sustained expansion of the economy is determined by adequate utilities and infrastructure development. Power sector offers lucrative growth prospects for the global valves market. Various countries around the globe are increasingly investing in power generation. For instance, as of August 2016, the total number of power plants in the U.S. was 7,658 that has the electricity generation capacity of at least 1 megawatt (MW). Moreover, in power generation plants, ball valves, globe valves, control valves, etc. play a crucial role. Opening and closing inlets and outlets and controlling cooling circuits in power plants are major roles of valves in a power plant. There has been a significant increase in number of power stations and power generation capacities across the globe. According to Coherent Market Insights’ analysis, as of 2017, the total installed capacity of power stations in India was 315,426 megawatt (MW). Moreover, The Ministry of Power of India has set a target of 1,229 Bn units of electricity to be generated in the FY 2017-2018.
Threat:
Growing competition from unorganized valves manufacturers
Given a large number of both global and local players in the market, the cost of cryogenic valves is a key factor. Local competitors are offering low-cost valves that could have a negative effect on well-known competitors' sales in the next decade. The global valves market is highly fragmented with high presence of players both large and SMEs. Local unorganized manufacturers are offering stiff competition to large companies by providing valves at a lower price than prevailing price levels. In the market. This, in turn, reduces profit margin and dilutes the market share of the organized valve manufacturers. Moreover, emerging economies in Asia Pacific such as India and China have the presence of unorganized local manufacturers. Thus, these factors are expected to hamper the market growth in the near future.
Impact of Covid- 19
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the oil & gas industry badly, with oil prices slashing drastically. The major decline in the demand for oil and gas due to various restrictions imposed by governments worldwide in 2020 resulted in a huge gap between the supply and demand. Oil & gas is one of the key industries using valves. Water & wastewater treatment and energy & power industries are also among the key end users of valves; these industries also witnessed reduced demand due to the global pandemic. There were restrictions on foreign trades due to the lockdown of international borders, non-operational distribution channels, and various preventive measures undertaken for public health and safety. However, it is expected that there would be an increasing focus on hygiene and sanitation due to the rise in people’s concern for a better and safer lifestyle, which, in turn, would drive the growth of the industrial valves market for the water & wastewater treatment industry. An increase in demand from the energy & power sector is likely to drive the industrial valves market for the energy & power end-user industry gradually from 2021 to 2026.
The ball valve segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The ball valve segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period. These valves have 90-degree rotation, which opens and closes the valve, giving them a reliable and airtight sealing. They have better flow characteristics than globe valves. Ball valves are quick and simple to operate and preferred for automation. Ball valves are less suitable, where tight shut-off is required.
The Liquefield Natural Gas (LNG) segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The Liquefield Natural Gas (LNG) segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period. It is considered as the major source of energy. LNG is also being used in power generation in the automotive sector, while many countries are adopting LNG as its fuel for various applications in other industries as well. LNG is primarily used in shipbuilding, power generation, and automotive industries.
