Report Description
The global gas compressors market size was USD 12.25 Bn in 2022 and is likely to reach USD 24 Bn by 2031, expanding at a CAGR of 3.95% during 2023–2031. The growth of the market is attributed to the growing use of natural gas in the industrial and transportation sector and the subsequent need for transportation of natural over long distances.
A gas is compressed to be transported feasibly and safely to the desired location. Gas compressors are used to increase the static pressure of a gas by reducing its volume so that gas can be compressed easily for transportation and storage purposes. Dynamic and positive displacement gas compressors. The commonly used gas compressors include dynamic and positive displacement gas compressors.

The dynamic compressor includes a centrifugal and axial compressor that compresses the gas by rotating impellers or vanes. Positive displacement compressors consist of rotary and reciprocating variants that compress the gas by storing it in a closed space and increasing the pressure. These compressors are commonly used for gases, such as hydrogen, nitrogen, ethylene, argon, fluorine, and xenon. As a result, they find extensive application across various industries, including construction, oil & gas, mining, general manufacturing, petrochemicals, chemicals, and power generation.
Gas Compressors Market Dynamics
Drivers
Significant growth of the oil & gas industry across the globe is anticipated to drive the market. Growing industrialization and urbanization requires a substantial amount of energy supplies to support the growth. Globalization has created many remunerative prospects for the manufacturing sector. High acceptance of gas processors for transportation purposes is expected to propel the market in the coming years. Gas processors are used to transport gas in a compact and safe way.
Restraints
Fluctuating crude oil prices and the associated ripple effect on the prices of gas are likely to hinder the market. The prices of oil & gas fluctuate due to the supply-demand ratio, geopolitical crisis, and changes in regulatory frameworks in oil-producing nations.
Opportunities
Increasing usage of natural gas in the industrial and transportation sector and supportive government policies to promote the use of natural gas are expected to create multiple opportunities in the market. Natural gas is preferred, as it creates a low carbon footprint and is cost-effective. Favorable government policies and rising awareness about using natural gas as an energy source in various application are fueling the sales of gas compressors.

Gas Compressors Market Segment Insights
Based on type, the gas compressors market is bifurcated into dynamic displacement and positive displacement. The dynamic displacement segment is anticipated to expand at a substantial pace during the forecasted period owing to the ability of dynamic compressors to work at a consistent pressure by providing a substantial amount of momentum to air at high velocity. The airflow is restricted to reduce the velocity of air thereby causing the pressure to increase.

On the basis of end-user, the global market is segregated into petrochemical & chemical industries, oil & gas, power sector, industrial gases, and others. The oil & gas segment is projected to register a considerable CAGR during the forecast period due to rising oil & gas exploration and consumption activities worldwide. Rising industrialization and urbanization have increased oil & gas consumption substantially. This factor is fueling the segment in the coming years.

In terms of application, the gas compressors market is categorized as upstream, midstream, and downstream. The midstream segment is expected to register a robust growth rate during the forecast period owing to increasing use of compressor to liquify and transport natural gas from one location, to another.
In terms of region, the global gas compressors market is classified as Asia Pacific, North America, Latin America, Europe, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific is expected to dominate the market during the projection period owing to the increasing demand for gas due to growing industrialization. China is emerging as a manufacturing hub of the world. Consistent energy supplies are required to support the industrial growth in the region.
