The Middle East & Africa oil & gas sensors market was valued at US$ 396.33 million in 2023 and is expected to reach US$ 515.11 million by 2031; it is estimated to register a CAGR of 3.3% from 2023 to 2031.
Expanding Oil and Gas Industry Bolsters Middle East & Africa Oil & Gas Sensors Market
The oil & gas industry has played a significant role in the economic transformation of various countries. The industry accounted for the largest share of global consumption of energy resources. Natural gas is projected to become the fastest-growing fossil fuel in the coming years. The oil production are increasing and fulfill energy demand. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global oil demand is expected to rise by 6% from 2022 to 2028 and reach 105.7 million barrels per day, with a significant requirement from the aviation and petrochemical industries. Rising demand for oil among various industries increases the demand for numerous oil & gas sensors such as pressure sensors, temperature sensors, flow sensors, and level sensors for monitoring and controlling plant operations.
The expansion of the oil & gas industry is also associated with increasing investment in oil & gas exploration activities. For instance, according to the Urwald eV report published in November 2023, between 2021 and 2023, 384 businesses across the globe have reported an average capital expenditure of more than US$ 10 million in oil & gas exploration activities. The top seven companies invested in oil & gas exploration are China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) (US$ 5.9 billion), China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) (US$ 3.2 billion), Saudi Aramco (US$ 2.8 billion), Pemex (US$ 2.6 billion), Sinopec Group (US$ 2.4 billion), Pioneer Natural Resources (US$ 2.1 billion), and Shell plc (US$ 2.0 billion). These investments support oil & gas companies to adopt technologically advanced oil & gas sensors by expanding their business worldwide. Thus, the expanding oil & gas industry fuels the oil & gas sensors market growth.
Middle East & Africa Oil & Gas Sensors Market Overview
Governments of several countries in the MEA are implementing various policies and regulations to encourage the adoption of advanced technologies such as IoT and AI in different industries. According to the International Trade Administration report of November 2023, the government of UAE aims to become self-sufficient in gas supplies by 2030. The UAE now imports natural gas from Qatar via the Dolphin pipeline to fuel power plants and desalination facilities. Simultaneously, the country has increased its focus on energy transition and is moving forward to adopt its net-zero emissions objective. This encourages oil & gas industries to adopt advanced devices that sustainably promote energy transition. In December 2022, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), a global leader in the oil & gas industry, announced its intentions to focus on renewable energy, carbon capture and storage, and clean hydrogen, along with making efforts to expand its presence in the global gas, liquefied natural gas (LNG), and chemicals sectors. Thus, burgeoning investments to expand the oil & gas industry and government initiatives to promote sustainability throughout the oil production process are expected to create growth opportunities for the oil & gas sensors market in the coming years.
