The leak detection market for oil and gas is expected to be valued at USD 3.38 Billion by 2022, growing at a CAGR of 6.9% between 2016 and 2022. The growth of this market can be attributed to the increasing incidents of leakages in the oil and gas pipelines and storage tanks at production facilities, development and expansion of existing pipelines and construction of new pipelines, and stringent government regulations pertaining to the implementation of leak detection systems.

The acoustic/ultrasonic technology is expected to lead the leak detection market for oil and gas between 2016 and 2022. The acoustic/ultrasonic technology-based leak detection systems are widely used in single-phase and multi-phase flow pipelines, owing to their advantages such as quick leak detection capabilities, suitable for leak detection in large pipelines, and require simplified sensor and software set up with minimal calibration.

The market for statistical and real-time monitoring is expected to grow at a high rate during the forecast period. This market growth can be attributed to the technology’s capacity to detect leak in both steady and transient conditions efficiently. E-RTTM is used to detect small leakages and to estimate the size of the leakages accurately. It is a reliable technology to detect leaks in both onshore and offshore pipelines.

North America accounted for a largest share of the global leak detection market for oil and gas in 2016. The increasing oil and gas production in the U.S. and Canada is boosting the number of pipeline infrastructure projects in North America, thereby driving the growth of the leak detection market for oil and gas in this region. Also, stringent government regulations in the U.S. to implement leak detection systems in oil and gas pipelines are fueling the market growth in North America.

The retrofitting of some leak detection systems, such as fiber-optic leak detection systems, to pipelines is difficult and expensive. This is restraining the growth of the market.

The key strategies adopted by the major players in the market include agreements, partnerships, and contracts. These strategies, collectively, accounted for 46% of the overall strategies adopted by the market players between 2015 and 2016. Companies such as PSI AG (Germany), Siemens AG (Germany), FLIR Systems Inc. (U.S.), KROHNE Group (Germany) have adopted these strategies to grow in the market.
