Pipeline Pig Market: Introduction

  • A pipeline pig is used in a variety of pipeline maintenance applications. Some of these include cleaning, drying, batching, liquid displacement, and product removal
  • Pipeline pigs are designed to help maintain efficiency; control corrosion; and prevent product contamination and mixing if there are multiple products in the line. Pipeline pigs are used for displacement of air to prepare for pipeline hydrostatic testing and remove water afterward. Furthermore, these pigs are employed for pipeline inspection and to locate pipeline damage, defects, and debris.

Key Drivers and Restraints of Global Pipeline Pig Market

  • Rapid globalization and industrialization is a key driver of the global pipeline pig market. Significant increase in the demand for oil and gas across the globe has forced companies to increase the production, upgrade the existing infrastructure, and minimize the downtime. Hence, rise in the demand for fuel is one of the major drivers of the global pipeline pig market.
  • Growth in discovery of new oil and gas fields is expected to drive the global pipeline pig market during the forecast period. Spending on oil and gas exploration rose by 20% and about 140 new oilfield discoveries were made in 2018. These discoveries are expected to boost the development of oil and gas infrastructure in the near future. Thus, increase in discovery of new oil and gas fields is estimated to drive the global pipeline pig market during the forecast period.
  • Geopolitical uncertainties and volatile prices are major restraints of the global pipeline pig market. Prices of crude oil are affected by events that can potentially disrupt the supply of oil and gas. These include geopolitical and climate-related issues. Geopolitical events is a major factor that can create uncertainty about future supply of or demand for oil and gas. This can lead to higher volatility in prices of oil and gas. This volatility affects the production of oil and gas. This factor is expected to hamper the global pipeline pig market during the forecast period.
