Hydrostatic Testing Market Snapshot

[277 Pages] The hydrostatic testing market to grow with a year-on-year growth of 4.7% in 2022 reaching a value of about US$ 582.2 Mn by 2022 end.

 The global business is anticipated to witness a considerable value CAGR of 4.8% during the period 2022 and 2028. Hydrostatic testing is the most common method for inspecting meter skids, compressed gas cylinders, pressure relief valves, boilers, tubing, pipelines, and other pressurized containers for leaks and structural integrity. It's typically used to test low-pressure stainless steel canisters as well as determine whether or not the equipment has any leaks at the time of the test and whether or not it's safe to return to operation.

FMI has identified North America to remain a key market for hydrostatic testing over the forecast period owing to increasing demand from end-use applications. The region is estimated to witness a value CAGR 5.9% in the industry of hydrostatic testing.

2013-2021 Hydrostatic Testing Market Outlook Compared to 2022-2028 Forecast

Increased oil and gas exploration activities and pipeline safety in the U.S. and the Middle East and Africa are expected to increase demand for pressure testing equipment and services in oil and gas facilities.

Furthermore, the safe operation of gas and petroleum pipelines necessitates meticulous construction, design and verification of structural integrity. Pipeline failure results in financial losses as well as environmental damage and in severe cases, death.

As a result, the need for hydrostatic testing equipment has increased in this industry. Manufacturers of hydrostatic testing equipment and service providers are always focused on research and development as well as acquisition activities to expand their market presence globally and effectively mitigate challenges.

The demand outlook for hydrostatic testing between 2013 and 2021 remains 3.9% as the pandemic crisis has impacted the market. The development of high-quality hydrostatic testing equipment such as test pumps, pressure gauges and relief valves at lower prices as compared to those manufactured by established brands, is identified to be one of the key challenges in hydrostatic testing equipment market.

The growth of the hydrostatic testing market is likely to grow at a growth rate of 4.5% by Volume over the assessment period of 2022-2028.

Which key factors drive the usage of hydrostatic testing in various end-use industries?

Growing investments across the oil and gas industry's value chain are one of the key factors anticipated to support demand for pipeline pressure testing equipment and services around the world.

Furthermore, increased Mexican oil and gas exploration and drilling activities will create significant competition with foreign investors as well as increase demand for hydrostatic testing services across the various end-use industries.

Environmental and safety concerns are becoming more prevalent in recent times. As a result, several end-users are taking steps to ensure a safe working environment and establish a system in which they can minimise damage by adapting preventative measures. These are the major attributes behind the rise of hydrostatic testing services in recent times.

How higher pricing will impact the market growth of hydrostatic testing?

One of the significant challenges in the worldwide hydrostatic testing equipment market is the production of high-quality hydrostatic testing equipment such as test pumps, pressure gauges, and relief valves at cheaper prices than those manufactured by other manufacturers.

One of the key hurdles for small and medium players in the greater initial cost of testing. Besides, the most important piece of equipment in the oil and gas industry is hydrostatic testing equipment. Hydrostatic pressure testing equipment manufactured at competitive pricing is a big challenge for players all over the world.

What was the Impact of the COVID-19 Crisis on the Hydrostatic Testing Market?

SARS-introduction COV-2's in 2020 has had a massive impact on the global economy. Due to the oil price war, the worldwide market has been impacted by an unprecedented decline in demand and supply in the oil and gas business and the influence of Covid-19 has resulted in supply chain disruptions.

Furthermore, due to extensive lockdowns and movement restrictions, economic activity had come to a halt. The closure of end-use industries has an impact on hydrostatic testing's global growth rate in 2020 but subsequently, the demand will definitely flourish with the rise of testing services in near future.
