Opportunity:  Implementation of valves in water & wastewater treatment plants to handle sanitation-related issues with the rapid spread of COVID-19

In the COVID-19 pandemic situation, water utilities are under close observation to provide safe drinking water and sanitation. The outbreak of coronavirus has created insecurity among people. Water & wastewater treatment is among the essential services, and hence, the plants are operational for all residential services. The pandemic has made people more concerned about sanitation and clean water. Thus, investments in establishing water treatment plants are expected to propel the growth of the industrial valves market.

Additionally, the aging infrastructure in the water & wastewater treatment industry is the primary concern in several countries. For instance, the US has a wide network of old pipelines that are used for transporting water and wastewater. Valves used in old infrastructure are also on the verge of replacement as they have surpassed their operational life. Hence, it is important to replace such valves for improved performance and better worker safety. Thus, the rising concern of people for better sanitation and increasing fresh investments in water supply and sanitation projects creates significant opportunities for the providers of valves having applications in the water & wastewater treatment industry.

Challenge: Adverse impact of COVID-19 pandemic on key end-user industries such as oil & gas and energy & power   

From a single case in China to a global pandemic in less than 3 months, the outbreak of COVID-19 has forced governments worldwide to take drastic measures to protect public health in 2020. This global health crisis has also dented economic growth prospects and upended the oil market. The oil market has been supported by additional production adjustments put in place by OPEC and non-OPEC countries in the Declaration of Cooperation for the first quarter of 2020. In the last week of March and the entire April, all the indices have deteriorated in terms of economy, stocks, equities, financial instruments, metals, commodities, and oil. Since the beginning of 2020, crude oil prices are decreasing dramatically. Consumer demand has declined following the continued spread of the virus and its negative impact on the economy, which, in turn, has led to the disagreement between of the largest oil producers, Russia and Saudi Arabia, in early March. All these factors are expected to lead to a setback in the industrial valves market in the oil & gas industry.

The pandemic has affected the oil & gas industry badly, with oil prices slashing like never before. Key oil-producing companies are running out of storage space for extracted oil, and the demand is on a declining trend. This has resulted in a huge gap between supply and demand. Oil & gas is one of the key industries for industrial valves. The pandemic has an adverse impact on the growth of the industrial valves market.

During the last two months, i.e., March and April, in 2020, the electricity demand curve has changed in the affected regions. The demand for residential use electricity is high; however, the commercial and industrial use of electricity is almost near to null, except for essential services. The power sector has been adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The energy & power industry will see a decline in industrial production in 2020. This, in turn, is expected to affect the global industrial valves market because usually, a large power plant uses hundreds of valves to manage the flow of water and steam.

The lockdown in many countries has led to the shutdown of most commercial activities, except essential ones, across the world. People are instructed to remain within the confines of their homes and work from home as far as possible. Consequently, the electricity demand in the industrial and commercial sectors has reduced significantly, while from the residential area, the demand has increased. Such a decline in demand has directly affected the industrial valves market. New projects have come to a standstill, along with which the demand for valves used or required for new facilities has been affected.

The world is facing an economic crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic outbreak. The pandemic has affected the oil & gas industry badly, with oil prices slashing like never before. Major producers of oil are running out of storage space for extracted oil, and the demand is on a declining trend. This has resulted in a huge gap between supply and demand. Oil & gas is one of the key industries using valves. The water & wastewater treatment and energy & power industries are also among the key end-users of valves. These industries are also witnessing a shrinking demand due to the pandemic situation globally. There is a restriction on foreign trades due to the lockdown of international borders, non-operational distribution channels, and various government laws to take precautionary measures for public health and safety. However, it is expected that there will be an increasing focus on hygiene and sanitation due to the rise in people’s concern for a better and safer lifestyle. An increase in demand from the energy & power sector is also likely to drive the industrial valves market for the energy & power end-use industry gradually from 2021 to 2025.

On-off/Isolation valves to account for a larger share of the industrial valves market by 2025

On-off/isolation valves are one of the most basic and indispensable components of the present modern technological society. It is essential to virtually all manufacturing processes and every energy production and supply system. It is one of the oldest products, with a history of thousands of years. The valve industry is truly broad-shouldered, with segments varying from water distribution to nuclear power to upstream and downstream oil and gas. Each of these end-user industries uses some basic types of valves, such as ball, butterfly, gate, globe, plug, diaphragm, check, and safety. However, the construction methods and materials used for these valves, along with their size, often depend on their diverse applications in varieties of end-user industries. On-off/isolation valves fulfill stringent shut-off requirements across various industries; therefore, these valves account for a larger share of the overall industrial valves market.

Steel industrial valves accounted for the largest market share in 2019

Steel industrial valves accounted for the largest market share in 2019. The rising demand for high-quality industrial valves in food & beverages, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, and metals & mining industries to mitigate the threat of contamination drives the demand for steel industrial valves at present, and a similar trend is likely to be observed during the forecast period. Additionally, the rising concern for sanitation will further boost the market for stainless steel valves in water & wastewater treatment plants as longer-lasting stainless steel valves can withstand harsh temperatures, chemicals, and pressures, along with hard water conditions, owing to its corrosion resistance quality. Stainless steel is tougher than other materials such as cast iron, ductile iron, brass, and copper in accordance with pressure rating and temperature tolerance. Stainless steel is preferred over carbon steel in applications where corrosion resistance is of utmost importance. Hence, stainless steel ball valves are typically in demand from industries such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals, oil & gas, and food & beverages. However, the amplified focus on cleaner fuels will boost the market for natural gas production and transportation, which, in turn, will boost the demand for cryogenic valves during the forecast period.

Globe valves to account for the largest market share during the forecast period

Globe valves are among the most popular valves used to control the flow in a pipeline, and they regulate by the position of a movable disk in relation to the stationary ring seat. The major advantage of the globe valve is that it does not leak as much as other valves. Owing to various benefits such as better full-closing characteristics, shorter opening and closing time, positive shut-off, these valves are adopted across various industries. They can also be used as stop check valves.

Oil & gas to account for the largest market share during the forecast period

The oil & gas industry accounted for the largest share of the industrial valves market in 2019 owing to the growing transportation sector, increasing energy demand, and rising drilling activities in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries. However, at present, the world is facing an economic crisis due to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The onset of this epidemic has affected the oil & gas industry badly, with oil prices slashing like never before. Similarly, on the one side, major oil-producing companies are running out of space to store extracted oil. In contrast, the oil demand has declined drastically, which has created a huge demand-supply gap. Oil & gas is one of the key industries for industrial valves, but the pandemic has adversely affected the industrial valves market in 2020 to a greater extent.
