Hydrocarbon Tester Market Analysis

Hydrocarbon tester is the device which is used to determine and enhance the product quality of crude oil, diesel, fuel oil, jet fuel, gas oil, and petroleum products by analyzing the concentration of hydrocarbon compounds. The demand of the hydrocarbon tester is increasing due to the high amount of hydrocarbon impurities which is associated with the petroleum, diesel, crude oil, and other products during production. Pollutants in these products can cause massive damage to the machines or the instruments which ultimately supports the high demand for hydrocarbon tester to analyze the hydrocarbon. Due to excessive usage of petroleum, diesel, crude oil and other products across the globe, the demand for hydrocarbon tester is rapidly increasing and contributing to the growth of the hydrocarbon tester market. Hydrocarbon testing and analysis is supporting the oil and gas organizations in identifying and analyzing concentrations of hydrocarbon compounds. Hydrocarbon tester are also rapidly adopted in metallurgy and geothermal exploration which is boosting the growth of hydrocarbon tester market across the globe.

Stringent Standards Such as IP, ASTM, and ISO

Hydrocarbon testing market is highly regulated and there are certain standards which need to be followed while analyzing the sample. American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM) is international standard organization that develops standards for a wide range of materials and products. These standards are very essential for various end use companies such as petroleum refineries, aviation companies, and automotive, geological and chemical processing plants to examine and process fuel oils to ensure good quality. For instance, As per ASTM D7675, there is a standard test method for determination of total hydrocarbons in Hydrogen by using Hydrocarbon tester. These stringent standards in various geographies are ultimately driving the growth of the hydrocarbon tester market.

Portable Hydrocarbon Testers are Gaining Traction

High demand for easy to use hydrocarbon tester is witnessed which is ultimately pushing the manufacturers to launch portable and easy to use hydrocarbon testers. Key strategy adopted by manufacturers is to introduce advance hydrocarbon testers with upgraded features. Also, their prime focus on introducing hydrocarbon testers with high sensitivity. For instance, PetroSense Inc. one of the key manufacturers of hydrocarbon tester, has launched portable hydrocarbon tester which has high sensitivity, also analyzes accurate and fast quantitative data for petroleum hydrocarbon in vapor and the water. This kind of up gradations from the manufacturers helps to the growth of the hydrocarbon tester market around the globe.

Adoption of Electric Vehicles Acting as a Restraint for the Market

The increasing adoption of electric vehicles is resulting in decline of sales of diesel and petrol based vehicles. This has significant negative impact on the market of hydrocarbon tester as the use of petrol and diesel engine is getting replaced by electric battery. The increasing adoption of electric vehicles is expected to be the potential challenge for hydrocarbon tester during the forecast period.
