DTS systems refer to the devices that use optical fiber cables for measuring temperature. In DTS systems, the optical cable acts as a multipoint temperature sensor and provides cost-effective temperature measurement along its entire length and not at particular points.
This property increases the reliability of DTS systems. The benefit of using DTS systems is that they provide real-time temperature measurement. DTS systems provide more accurate and faster temperature measurement with high resolution in comparison with other conventional temperature measurement systems such as resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) and thermocouples. Industries such as oil & gas and pipeline transportation require temperature sensing systems for monitoring purposes that can operate at high temperatures and harsh working environments and are immune to electromagnetic interferences. DTS systems are considered as the best option for such applications.
Increasing safety norms and supportive government policies related to leakage detection and growing adoption of data-based analysis are expected to provide substantial growth opportunities to the players in the DTS market. With regulations regarding emission standards getting stringent over time, the demand for distributed fiber optic sensors will increase primarily because of their capability to monitor leaks from pipelines and consequently playing a significant role in monitoring emission standards. The reliability of DTS systems/sensors for sensing and monitoring applications in harsh environments is one of the major factors that is expected to accelerate the growth of the DTS market.
Distributed Temperature Sensing Market Dynamics:
Driver: Increasing demand for labor safety at working sites
The reputation of a company in the market depends largely on the safety of its personnel and equipment. This has made safety and protection a top priority for organizations. As per the data provided by the International Association of Drilling Contractors (IADC), the total recorded incidence rate per 200,000 man-hours increased from 0.46 in 2016 to 0.68 in 2018.
The implementation of DTS systems helps in improving safety in various working conditions; these systems are ideal for use in hazardous environments. Safety systems rely on accurate and reliable fire detection, which makes DTS technology an appropriate choice for various industries. The prime benefit of using DTS systems is that they provide real-time temperature monitoring along the entire length of a cable instead of particular points and acts as an effective fire detection unit. The ability to withstand extreme conditions makes DTS systems inevitable for improving safety systems. This is one of the key driving factors for the growth of the market
Restraint: Optical cables are prone to physical damage
DTS systems use optical cables that have low strain sensitivity. Any bending during installation can damage these systems. The optical fiber cables must be carefully installed; else, the fiber may break. Though the design of sensor cables has improved tremendously, improper cable deployment can cause the failure of the entire DTS system.
Since the installation of DTS systems requires huge investments, such failures can lead customers to turn away from the technology for future projects. Thus, cable deployment requires special care while installing DTS systems. The occurrence of technical issues during the deployment of sensor cables is one of the restraining factors for the growth of the DTS market.
However, in the coming years, advancements in technologies are expected to reduce the physical damages to optical cables, which would, in turn, reduce the impact of this factor on the DTS market.
Opportunity: Increasing safety norms and supportive government policies related to leakage detection
Rapid urbanization and industrialization have not only boosted construction activities but have also increased the risks associated with them. Construction sites and industrial plants consist of large electrical wirings, and even a small spark can pose a threat to the people working and living in the surrounding areas.
Similarly, pipelines used in the transportation of oil and gas pose a severe threat to the employees as well as people living nearby, as a small leakage can cause huge damages.
Leaking equipment, including valves, pumps, connectors, sampling connectors, compressors, pressure relief devices, and open-ended lines used in various industries, are the major sources of emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and volatile hazardous air pollutants (VHAPs). Refineries and the chemicals industry are the major sources of these leaks.
Acetaldehyde, benzene, formaldehyde, methylene chloride, naphthalene, toluene, and xylene are the major VHAPs and VOCs emitted from leaks. Valves and connectors account for more than 90% of emissions from leaks. To detect and repair leaks, a leak detection and repair (LDAR) program is implemented, where the leaking component is replaced with a new component. The primary use of distributed optical sensing systems is to detect pipeline leaks that can pollute the environment.
With regulations regarding emission standards getting stringent, the demand for distributed fiber optic sensors will increase primarily because of their capability to monitor leaks from pipelines and consequently playing a major role in monitoring emission standards. Thus, an increasing number of companies are implementing DTS systems for safety purposes. Organizations such as Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) are working for the safety of people and prevention of fires, thereby promoting the use of fire safety equipment in workplaces.
Challenge: High costs associated with DTS systems
DTS systems enable companies to gather real-time data with high accuracy in difficult work environments. The market is growing because of the various advantages of these systems, such as accuracy and reliability. However, the cost of this technology is relatively high.
Depending on the application, the type of cables used, and the operating conditions, the price of a DTS system varies, which may not be affordable for some companies that require real-time temperature sensing. Additionally, the installation and maintenance of these systems are also expensive, which makes their implementation difficult. Thus, the cost of DTS systems poses a significant challenge for the growth of this market.
The rising number of hacking incidents is also a matter of concern since they have limited security mechanisms. Companies in the drone industry provide analytics software-as-a-service to their clients, which requires cloud-based servers to process data. Since the data is transmitted and stored in an external cloud network, it is prone to hacking. Industries also need highly secured cloud servers for data security. Therefore, data security and data encryption concerns act as a challenge for the UAV market.
