The global cryogenic valve market size was valued at USD 3.65 billion in 2021. The market is projected to grow from USD 3.88 billion in 2022 to USD 7.15 billion by 2029, exhibiting a CAGR of 9.1% during the forecast period. Asia Pacific dominated the global market with a share of 35.34% in 2021.


The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with cryogenic valve experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. Based on our analysis, the global market exhibited a decline of -4.1% in 2020 as compared to 2019.


Cryogenic valves are used in extreme cold applications. These valves are mostly used by companies that deal in Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) and Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG). Cryogenic valves are used at temperatures of -1500C to -1960C. The major factors driving the market include growing trade for LNG and rising demand for industrial gases.


Furthermore, the development in the exploration and production activities of natural gas has led to the growing demand for liquefied natural gas. Revolution in various fields, such as automobile, pharmaceutical, power generation, and manufacturing, has led to huge industrialization and urbanization, making liquefied natural gas a vital development element. These valves are used to store and transport the cryogenic gases at high pressure such as 750 PSI and a low-temperature range of -1960C.


COVID-19 IMPACT


Significant Decline in Cryogenic Valve Market during COVID-19 Pandemic Owing to Shutdown of Manufacturing Plants


The emergence of COVID-19 has impeded the demand for cryogenic valves due to the shutdown of manufacturing plants in major industries. Key players operating in the market recorded a significant decline in their revenues due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As the cryogenic valve market is majorly dependent on the natural gas industry, the biggest collapse faced by the oil and gas industry in a long time has also impacted the investment in the product. The excess supply and low demand for natural gas forced leading gas companies to temporarily reduce production activities, which ultimately led to a fluctuation in natural gas prices.

Increasing Investments across Nuclear and Particle Physics Research to Augment Demand


Various countries are readily focused on constructing advanced facilities to fortify the position of their national physics research infrastructure. These valves are widely installed across refrigeration systems and superconducting magnets to maintain extremely low temperatures. The growing need to refurbish the existing substructure for performing high-energy particle collision experiments with multi tera electron volts (TeV) is projected to further complement the industry outlook. These collisions are anticipated to unveil new states of matter and expand the understanding of the basic building blocks of the universe. Furthermore, as the energy for particle and nuclear research analysis increases, the total required cryogenic refrigeration capacity is set to grow significantly. In June 2020, the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) announced an investment of about USD 23 billion to construct a new super-collider facility known as Future Circular Collider (FCC). The new 100-kilometer unit is projected to be completed in two stages, with the initial stage for the collision of positrons and electrons to expand the production of Higgs bosons to gather insights regarding the particles. Additionally, the subsequent stage is set to construct a 100 TeV proton-proton collider for further research and is projected to commence the building of the tunnel by 2038.


Favorable Policies Coupled with Huge Targets to Setup New Hydrogen Fueling Stations will Support the Market


Various governments have introduced short and long-term targets to substantially develop hydrogen-powered transportation and power generation alternatives to provide new potential to the industry outlook. The national objectives are further aimed at reducing the overall carbon footprint and the dependency on fossil fuels. Consequently, industry players, organizations, and regional governments have joined forces to put forward notable organizations or ventures to propel the construction of Hydrogen Refueling Stations (HRS). For instance, in February 2020, the Air Liquide Japan and JHyM (Japan H2 Mobility) launched a new hydrogen station center in Nagoya city having a capacity of more than 300 NM3/hours and 820 bar pressure.


DRIVING FACTORS


Growing Automation in Industries and Rising Demand for Valves will Benefit the Market


The demand for automation is growing as manufacturers are focusing on increasing their operational performance, which is driving the market for automation valves and outperforming traditional valves. Furthermore, the demand for high-tech valves is growing, high-tech valves require specialized casting, and working and finishing techniques will continue to grow. In addition, various countries are focusing on constructing advanced facilities to strengthen the position of their national physics research infrastructure, thereby propelling the global cryogenic valve market growth. These valves are widely installed across refrigeration systems and superconducting magnets to maintain extremely low temperatures.


Growing Demand for Industrial Gases Coupled with Expanding Applications Boosts the Adoption


Rapidly increasing demand for various cryogenic fluids, such as nitrogen, oxygen, hydrogen, argon, helium, and many others for different industrial operations, primarily among the emerging economies, will boost the adoption of cryogenic valves across the globe. Furthermore, a growing focus on expanding the usage of liquefied gases in numerous industry verticals is also likely to encourage industry growth positively. The escalating usage potential is leading to a significant increase in the deployment of customized on-site liquefaction plants to produce, transfer, and store cryogenic effectively. For instance, in March 2020, Japan-based Kawasaki Heavy Industries declared to equip a marine vessel with a liquefied hydrogen storage tank for low emission propulsion. The company further stated to perform other outfitting operations such as piping installations by October 2020. The plan is in line with its hydrogen liquefaction, transfer, storage, and the offloading terminal project called Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) project.


RESTRAINING FACTORS


Operational Design and Performance Parameters to Restrain Market Growth


Apart from a wide range of beneficial features of these products, susceptibilities toward operational problems, including leakages, replacement, and design of various valve parts may obstruct the market pace. The products are widely accepted in the extended bonnet or extended stem designs, which need significant space for installation leading to the undesirable outlay of time and space. Additionally, the orientations are considerably vulnerable to deformation or bending due to length miscalculations or actuator movements. These valves are designed for handling fluids at extremely low temperatures from about – 50 °C to around absolute zero. The transition of operating fluid temperature may lead to warping bends the sealing surface leading to internal leakages. Furthermore, flanged and gasket connections may also result in external leakages between the valve and pipelines. Thus, it is more feasible to change the flanged type to a welded connection to mitigate leakages at low temperatures.


SEGMENTATION


By Type Analysis


Gate Valves Dominated the Market Owing to their Significant Use in Start or Stop Flow Operations


Based on type, the global market is segmented into gate valve, globe valve, ball valve, butterfly valve, and others. The gate valve segment dominated the global market owing to its preliminary design for starting or stopping the flow; furthermore, it can also be used with slurries or viscous liquids. The ball valves also accounted for a significant share, owing to their high flow rate and easy operations when compared to other valve types.
