Pigging valves are pipeline instruments used to introduce and retrieve pipeline maintenance and cleaning device known as pigs. These valves are used as pig launches or receiver valves through an interlock that is integrated on the side of pigging valves that is secured and locked through a bayonet system.

Pigging valves are considered an essential component in the pipeline transportation sector, where it is used for a wide range of applications such as liquid management, pipeline cleanup, inspection, prevention of corrosion, and removal of solid accumulations such as sediments. Hence, increasing industrial development and growing adoption of automated technologies in the industries such as chemical, pharmaceuticals, and oil & gas refining, among others are projected to accelerate the sales of pigging valves in the global market.

Which are Some Prominent Drivers Spearheading Pigging Valves Market Growth?

Pigging valves are gaining huge popularity across industries such as oil & gas, chemical, pharmaceutical, and sewage treatment among others, owing to their ability to increase pipeline transportation efficiency of petrochemical, hydrocarbon, and others. This is augmenting the demand for pigging valves in the market.

With surging trend of urbanization and industrialization, especially in the developing economies such as China, India, Brazil, and Australia, demand for oil & gas products is rapidly increasing across rural areas. Hence, governments in several countries are emphasizing on undertaking initiatives to strengthen their nation's pipeline infrastructure to decline the transportation time and cost.

For instance, according to a report by the Petroleum & Natural Gas Regulatory Board, the Government of India has announced its plan to build a nationwide natural gas pipeline and expand existing pipeline transportation capacity from 242 MMSCMD in 2021 to more than 580 MMSCMD by the end of 2030. As pigging valves are extensively in pipelines to decline the risk of leakage and gain better control over fluid management, such developments are estimated to facilitate the demand in the global market.

What are the Challenges Faced by the Pigging Valves Market?

Despite several benefits of pigging valves, extravagant initial cost, high cost of maintenance, and limitation in flexibility as they can only pass through bends with large radius pipelines among others are the factors hindering the sales in the global market.

In addition to this, massive cost and need for detailed analysis for the construction of pipelines due to numerous environmental aspects that are required to be taken into consideration before laying the pipelines are declining pipeline construction activities across certain developing countries. This is restraining the sales of pigging valves in the market.

Why is Middle East & Africa Emerging as an Opportunistic Pigging Valves Market?

Future Market Insights reveals that Middle East & Africa is anticipated to emerge as a highly remunerative market for pigging valves between 2022 and 2032.

Over the past few years, the demand for crude oil, natural gas, and petroleum products is increasing at a rapid pace across the world, due to the increasing vehicular fleet and rapid industrialization. On account of this, a significant rise in export of these aforementioned products is being registered from prominent producing and refining countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, the UAE, and Iraq among others.

According to the International Monetary Fund, nearly 7.31 Mn barrel of crude oil is exported from Saudi Arabia each day, which is more than 1.1 Mn barrel per day in comparison to the export of crude oil in 2009. As pigging valves play a vital role during the export of these oil & gas industry products, accelerating trade activities is projected to bolster the sales in the Middle East & Africa market.

How is North America Contributing to the Growth of the Pigging Valves Market?

As per FMI, North America is expected to account for a significant share in the global pigging valves market over the forecast period 2022-2032.

Sales of automotive vehicles are accelerating at a rapid pace, creating strong demand for crude oil products. Thus, several industry players are focusing on launching new crude oil refineries for increasing the production capacity to meet the surging demand.

For instance, in 2019, Targa Resources Corp., an American oil & gas company announced constructing a novel petroleum refinery in Texas, the U.S. with a refining capacity of around 35,000 barrels per day. As pigging valves are extensively used in oil & gas refineries for fluid management, a slew of such developments is estimated to bolster the demand in the North America market.
