Development of Internet of Things (IoT)-based Sensors Fuels South & Central America Oil & Gas Sensors Market
The evolution of IoT technology in the oil & gas industry is transforming operations by increasing operational efficiency and workers' safety. These developments make it possible for oil & gas companies to monitor equipment and pipelines in real-time, perform predictive maintenance, and control operations remotely by decreasing downtime and risk. In oil & gas-based applications, IoT-based sensors collect, and track asset operation, pressure, speed, temperature, or other factors based on predetermined conditions. IoT-based sensors help transfer the data in real time to an external storage location, which might be on the cloud. This further enables plant operators to analyze the data collected by the sensors to determine whether the asset is properly working, broken, or close to failure. Moreover, IoT-based sensors ensure the safety of critical systems by providing real-time monitoring.
IoT-based sensors are used in various applications in the oil & gas industry to ensure the reliability, safety, and longevity of machines operating in a harsh environment. The growing demand for IoT-based sensors has encouraged manufacturers to develop new innovative sensors or upgrade existing sensors with additional features. For instance, in April 2024, TE Connectivity Ltd expanded its IoT wireless pressure sensor by launching a 69xxN wireless pressure sensor. These sensors provide support to oil & gas companies in advancing data collection processes and precisely monitoring the plant’s condition. The sensor engineered with low power wide area networking (LoRaWAN) technology provides long-range coverage. This compact sensor fits effortlessly into various environments, offers a wide pressure sensing range, simplifies system integration, reduces the need for multiple sensors, and shows high durability and resistance to corrosion. The scalability, extended battery life, and low power consumption support users to enhance system reliability and lower maintenance frequency in a hazardous environment. Thus, the development of Internet of Things (IoT)-based sensors contributes to the oil & gas sensors market growth.
South & Central America Oil & Gas Sensors Market Overview
According to the Global Energy Association data published in May 2023, oil production in South America increased by 370,000 barrels per day (bpd) in 2023. Brazil is a key growth driver of oil production in the region, with an increasing output of 240,000 bpd. A surge in production can be ascribed to the establishment of new floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) units at pre-salt fields on the Atlantic shelf—the Anna Nery FPSO unit and Almirante Barroso FPSO units having production capacities of 70,000 bpd and 150,000 bpd oil, respectively. Growing oil production and plant capacity expansion are among the activities triggering the demand for oil & gas sensors for accurate and reliable monitoring of pressure, temperature, and flow rates in production plants. Moreover, significant benefits provided by oil & gas sensors include reduction in downtime, optimization of operations, and betterment of asset and employee safety, which also contribute to the oil & gas sensor market growth in South & Central America.
