These factors are likely to increase the demand for composite materials in the market. For instance,
- In April 2023, Emirates Gas a subsidiary of ENOC group launched its next-generation LPG composite cylinders in Dubai. This innovation is a part of ENOC’s reliable efforts to provide customers with the latest technology and improvements in the LPG industry.
The research report finds that the COVID-19 pandemic hampered the composites in oil & gas industry market, due to the reduction of the oil & gas industry, lessened energy consumption, and strict lockdown imposed by governments. During the pandemic, strict regulations imposed by the governments for the supply chain have affected the imports and exports of raw materials for the manufacturing processes, which hampered the market.
Composites in Oil & Gas Industry Market Dynamics
Major Drivers
High demand for lightweight and durable materials is expected to boost the composites in oil & gas industry market during the forecast period. Composites are used in several different applications in the oil & gas industry such as pipelines, tanks, and offshore drilling. Thermoset composites are lighter weight than metal, which makes them perfect for reducing fuel use and emissions, and further improves costs.
-
In April 2023, Encino Environmental Services launched the Environmech composite thief hatch. This innovation is introduced to reduce emissions from storage tanks into the environment. It is made from durable composites that resist corrosion which provides mechanical integrity performance.
Existing Restraints
Fluctuating prices of raw materials are expected to hamper the adoption of composites in oil & gas industry market in the coming years. Composite materials are expensive to manufacture and the installation requires specialized expertise and equipment, which is used in oil & gas applications. However, the availability of low-cost substitutes and the government regulations for composite materials is another factor hindering the composites in oil & gas industry market.
Emerging Opportunities
Rising demand for composites in the renewable energy sector is expected to create lucrative opportunities for the market players. Composites are more durable, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant, which makes them an attractive option for natural gas storage and transportation.
Several companies are shifting towards cleaner energy, due to the increasing need for composite materials with the high demand for offshore wind farms and other renewable energy installations. Thus, in turn, is expected to increase the demand for the market.
-
In September 2022, the Department of Energy (DOE) introduced a new energy source to slash the cost of Geothermal Power a widespread renewable energy option in the US by cutting its cost by 90% to USD 45 per megawatt hour by 2035.
