““Growing deepwater oil & gas exploration & production driving the flexible pipes market”
The global flexible pipes market size is estimated to reach USD 1.02 billion by 2020, at a CAGR of 3.7% between 2015 and 2020. Flexible pipes have properties such as high chemical resistance, pressure resistance, and mechanical strength; long durability; leak proof; operate efficiently under high pressure and temperature conditions; and offer ease of installation. These unique properties make flexible pipes the preferred option for offshore oil & gas application, thereby, driving the growth of flexible pipes market.
“Offshore is the largest application of flexible pipes”
Flexible pipes are used in offshore and onshore oil & gas exploration and production process. In offshore applications, flexible pipes are used in deep water, ultra deep water, and sub sea drilling processes. In 2015, the offshore segment accounted for the largest market share of the overall flexible pipes market, in terms of value. The market in this application segment is also estimated to register the highest CAGR between 2015 and 2020.
“Rising demand from Middle East & Africa is a major driver of flexible pipes market“
In 2015, the Middle East & Africa flexible pipes market is projected to register the highest growth rate between 2015 and 2020. Availability of large amount oil & gas reserves in this region is driving the flexible pipes market on a large scale. Saudi Arabia led the demand for flexible pipes in the region due to increased oil & gas exploration activities in the last two–three years.
