Non Destructive Testing Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Testing Technology (Traditional Non Destructive Testing Method, Digital/Advanced NDT Method and Other Testing Technologies), Type (Equipment and Services), Method (Visual Inspection, Surface Inspection, Volumetric Inspection and Other Methods), End User and By GeographyAccording to Stratistics MRC, the Global Non Destructive Testing Market is accounted for $10.3 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $22.9 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 12.1% during the forecast period. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is a testing and analytical technique used by industry to assess a material's, components, structure's, or system's attributes for distinctive differences or welding faults and discontinuities without harming the original part. Non-destructive testing (NDT) is often referred to as non-destructive evaluation (NDE), non-destructive inspection (NDI), and so on. One of the key advantages of NDT is that it may conserve time, money, and resources by preventing needless electrical system repairs, replacements, or downtime.

According to the World Nuclear Association, China and India have planned 43 and 14 nuclear reactors respectively by May 2019. Thus, the need for maintenance of those power plants will also increase which in return will create a market for nondestructive testing.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

High demand in the oil & gas and power sectors

The oil and gas, automotive, and power sectors all employ service-based supply chains, training, and research and development (R&D) techniques as part of their supply chains. This method is employed in the oil and gas sector to examine the interior and exterior corrosion of the pipeline. Visual inspection, liquid penetrant examination, magnetic particle inspection, and ultrasonic inspection are just a few of the techniques employed. In order to examine pressure systems and steam and gas turbines, the power industry uses the NDT technology. This method is employed in nuclear power plants to check waste containers, tiny valves, fuel rods, and waste management equipment. As a result, the market expansion is being driven by the increased demand for NDT methods in the oil and gas and power industries.

Restraint:

High price of modern equipment needed for non-destructive testing

The need for complex, expensive, advanced apparatus to perform NDT is a major drawback. To achieve the greatest degree of precision, the process of analyzing and identifying fractures, defects, leakages, and troubleshooting necessitates the employment of cutting-edge equipment and tools. It is predicted that certain users' budgetary budgets may be hampered by this dependency on sophisticated NDT equipment.

Opportunity:

Offers reassurance

Reassurance is really straightforward, but it occasionally serves as the most significant benefit of non-destructive testing. It may offer all the stability, assurance, and peace of mind need if a plant or factory knows that its machinery is A1 and operating as it should. An additional layer of protection may be provided by knowing that protocols are in place to ensure that testing is done on a regular basis. When employees are confident in their safety, they are more likely to be productive and produce more overall.

Threat:

Lack of competent and skilled personnel

The main barrier to the market for non-destructive testing equipment is a lack of qualified personnel. The majority of specialists needed for the inspection process are simply qualified; they lack the fundamental abilities needed to execute quality inspection satisfactorily. Additionally, because they lack the newest equipment, the majority of training facilities teach technicians on out-of-date, phased-out equipment. Since it limits the adoption of cutting-edge goods and technology, this poses a significant obstacle to the market expansion for non-destructive testing equipment.

Covid-19 Impact

Almost every industry in the world has been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic epidemic, including the automobile, construction, aviation, and industrial sectors, among others. Many countries throughout the world enacted lockdowns as a preventative step to stop the new corona virus’s spread and its ensuing negative effects. The global economy was put under pressure by the broken global supply chain and falling industrial productivity. The fast spread of the virus also interfered with the firms' ability to produce and manufacture goods.

The traditional non destructive testing method segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

The traditional non destructive testing method segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, due to the growing use of conventional NDT techniques as visual inspection, magnetic particle inspection, liquid penetrate inspection, eddy current inspection, ultrasonic inspection, and radiographic inspection. When compared to other conventional non-destructive testing methods, ultrasonic detectors are thought to dominate the market because they are portable, simple to use, and produce accurate results. As a result, ultrasonic testing is becoming more widely used, and this trend is projected to continue in the years to come.

The power and energy segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The power and energy segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, in many nations throughout the world, nuclear energy is a vital component of the electricity production process. Nuclear power facilities generate more than half of the electricity in a number of nations. The main challenge in nuclear power engineering is ensuring the dependable and secure operation of nuclear power facilities. The use of non-destructive testing and diagnostics is closely related to solving this issue. Non-destructive techniques are widely used in several applications, including fuel inspection. Numerous methods, including ultrasonic’s, eddy current, radiographic tests, and acoustic methods, are employed in this sector which boost the market.

Region with largest share:

North America is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period. This is credited to the widespread use of NDT techniques, the accessibility of a qualified workforce, and the abundance of non-destructive testing training facilities in the area. Furthermore, the use of shale oil for power generation in the United States and Canada is anticipated to have a favourable effect on the rate of growth in the area. Additionally, it is anticipated that the regional market would be driven by the increasing emphasis on the use of NDT to prevent unanticipated system failures.

Region with highest CAGR:

Asia Pacific is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to increased government investment on infrastructure; the APAC region has potential for the non-destructive testing industry. For instance, China's ""Belt and Road Initiative,"" which aims to increase productivity and efficiency benefits by enhancing trade linkages between Asia and Europe, is the region's largest infrastructure project. Because NDT aids in the detection of corrosion, cracking, and other deterioration that may impact load bearing capability, such infrastructure activities provide a market for NDT.
