Reciprocating Pumps Market Forecasts to 2030 – Global Analysis By Type (Plunger, Piston and Diaphragm), Action (Direct Reciprocating Pump, Single Reciprocating Pump and Dual Reciprocating Pump), Mechanism, End User and By Geography
According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Reciprocating Pumps Market is accounted for $9.55 billion in 2023 and is expected to reach $17.69 billion by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 9.2% during the forecast period. Reciprocating pumps are a type of positive displacement pump used to transfer fluids in various industries, including oil and gas, chemical processing, agriculture, and manufacturing. In order to force the fluid to flow through the pump, these pumps use a piston or plunger that reciprocates back and forth inside a cylinder. The dependability and capability of reciprocating pumps to handle high-pressure applications are well established. The two primary varieties of reciprocating pumps are plunger pumps and piston pumps. Plunger pumps employ a reciprocating plunger without a seal, whereas piston pumps normally have a piston with a seal. For high-pressure applications, plunger pumps are frequently used because of their ability to withstand the pressures present.
According to Eurostat, wastewater treatment and waste management accounted for 23% and 28% of total expenditure in the general government and non-profit sector in 2021.
Market DynamicsDriverModernization in both developed and developing nations' architectural styles
In the upcoming years, modernization of architecture in both developed and emerging nations will support the expansion of the construction sector and the mechanical hand tool industry. Due to factors like growing industrialization, expanding application industries, rising demand from the chemical, oil and gas, pharmaceutical, food, and beverage industries, as well as significant advancements in the machinery and equipment industries, there is an increasing need for reciprocating pumps. As manufacturers concentrate on removing the danger of installing chemical handling equipment during projects to save time consumption and ease of performance, this is another significant element driving the market demand.
RestraintEnvironmental issues with limited application
When compared to more recent and energy-efficient pump technology, some reciprocating pumps, particularly older types may consume more energy and emit more pollutants. Reciprocal pumps might not be the ideal option in situations where cleanliness and sterility are essential since they have more exposed moving components and possible leakage sites than certain other pump types. Reciprocating pumps might have a higher starting cost than certain other types of pumps. Although they may be cost-effective in the long term, certain applications may be put off by the initial outlay.
OpportunityAbility to change flow rates and reach high pressure
Due to its well-known capacity for producing exceptionally high pressures, reciprocating pumps are well suited for applications requiring the movement of fluids against substantial resistance. In high-pressure hydraulic systems and procedures, they are frequently employed. The length of the stroke, the speed, or the quantity of cylinders may all be changed to simply alter the flow rates of reciprocating pumps. Due to their flexibility, which enables precise control of fluid supply, they may be used for a variety of applications thus creating wide range of opportunities for the market growth.
ThreatHigh maintenance
Although reciprocating pumps require less frequent maintenance than certain other types of pumps, they nevertheless need regular lubrication, seal replacement, and inspection. Compared to other types of pumps, maintenance can often be more difficult and time-consuming. In addition, when operating, reciprocating pumps may be loud, especially at higher speeds and pressures and, they produce vibrations, which can be bothersome in particular environments and necessitate extra noise reduction and vibration control techniques thus hindering the growth of the market.
Covid-19 ImpactThe COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on various industries, including the reciprocating pumps market. The pandemic disrupted global supply chains, affecting the availability of components and materials required for manufacturing reciprocating pumps. Lockdowns, restrictions, and logistical challenges led to delays in production and delivery, causing supply chain disruptions. Many industries that are significant consumers of reciprocating pumps, such as oil and gas, manufacturing, and construction, experienced reduced demand during the pandemic. Shutdowns and economic uncertainty led to project delays and cancellations, impacting the need for new pumps.
The diaphragm segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period
The diaphragm segment is estimated to have a lucrative growth, as these pumps are capable of handling a wide range of fluids, including chemicals, slurries, abrasive materials, and high viscosity liquids. They are useful in sectors like chemical processing and wastewater treatment because they can handle caustic and abrasive fluids. Due to their straightforward construction and limited number of moving components, these pumps often require less maintenance than certain other types of pumps. The inspection and repair of diaphragms are normally part of routine maintenance.
The oil & gas segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period
The oil & gas segment is anticipated to witness the highest CAGR growth during the forecast period, as oil and gas extraction require suction to lift fluids and force them into various chambers for further processing since they are high-pressure applications. In this case, plunger pumps are frequently employed because they work effectively in high-pressure situations. The oil and gas sector has expanded significantly over time. Reciprocal pumps are in high demand because they are extensively used in oil extraction and transportation procedures. This is due to the growing demand for petroleum-based products across the majority of the world and the increased investment being made to modernize oil extraction and transportation.
Region with largest shareAsia Pacific is projected to hold the largest market share during the forecast period owing to the fast development and urbanization taking place in the Asia Pacific area. There has been an increase in the need for reciprocating pumps due to its ability to function in high-pressure settings; reciprocating pumps are also often utilized in the mining industry. Additionally, reciprocating pumps are perfect for mining operations because they can deliver a defined volume of fluid displacement at a certain speed to offer a steady flow, irrespective of pressure.
Region with highest CAGREurope is projected to have the highest CAGR over the forecast period, owing to, a variety of sectors, including oil and gas, chemical processing, manufacturing, water and wastewater treatment, and power production, employs reciprocating pumps. Because of their adaptability, these pumps are useful in many industries, particularly in nations like Norway, the United Kingdom, and the Netherlands; Europe has a substantial presence in the oil and gas sector. In this industry, reciprocating pumps are utilized for a variety of procedures, such as pipeline work, gas compression, and well stimulation which further enhance the growth of the market.
