The global pipeline pigging services market size is expected to reach USD 14.92 billion by 2032, according to a new study by Polaris Market Research. The report "Pipeline Pigging Services Market Share, Size, Trends, Industry Analysis Report, By Service, By Application (Metal Loss/Corrosion Detection, Crack & Leakage Detection), By End Use (Oil, Gas), By Region, And Segment Forecasts, 2024 - 2032" gives a detailed insight into current market dynamics and provides analysis on future market growth.
Increasing emphasis on government regulations aimed at enhancing the safety of pipelines and energy infrastructure. These regulations are vital for ensuring the secure transportation of oil and gas resources, thus driving the demand for advanced inspection and maintenance techniques. One of the crucial technologies that contribute to this growth is intelligent pigging. This specialized method allows for the thorough cleaning of pipelines and facilitates the inspection and collection of critical data without disrupting the flow of the product being transported. Intelligent pigs are devices equipped with advanced sensors and capabilities that enable them to navigate pipelines and perform these tasks effectively.
Magnetic Flux Leakage (MFL) employs powerful magnets and sensors to identify areas where metal loss or corrosion has occurred, providing valuable insights into the condition of the pipeline. Ultrasonic Testing Intelligent Pigging utilizes high-frequency sound waves to detect and analyze anomalies within the pipe wall, ensuring the early identification of potential weaknesses. Caliper Pigging, on the other hand, measures the inner diameter of the pipeline to assess its integrity, helping to identify deformities or obstructions.
In most cases, corrosion represents the predominant issue impacting the oil and gas pipeline system. To address this concern, in-line inspection intelligent pigs, such as corrosion detection pigs, are employed. These specialized pigs are tasked with identifying and assessing instances of metal loss resulting from corrosion and cracking.
The pipeline pigging services market is experiencing growth due to the expansion of gas distribution networks, which is propelled by increased production from offshore gas fields. Technological advancements in the industry have made it feasible to extract gas from these offshore reserves efficiently. Simultaneously, there are ongoing initiatives aimed at enhancing the often-inadequate gas transmission and distribution infrastructure. These efforts have a dual purpose: facilitating cross-border trade of gas resources and meeting domestic demand. As a result, construction activities related to gas distribution infrastructure are on the rise.
