MARKET TRENDS

Increasing Demand for Hydrocarbon Products Observed as a Substantial Submersible Pump Market Trend

Submersible pump are extensively used in oil & gas production from the wells. ESPs are readily installed in the drill string as the borewell submersible pumps to produce centrifugal force and efficiently lift substantial volumes of liquids to the surface. A large number of wells are on the verge of maturity and requires an additional method to produce oil & gas. In February 2020, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projected that the global petroleum and liquid fuel demand is set to increase by over 1.3 billion million barrels per day (BPD) in 2020, resulting in 101.97 BPD by the year-end.

Rising Measures to Treat and Reuse Discharged Wastewater Will Propel the Industry Size

Water is the basic necessity needed by every individual to sustain, and depletion & contamination of water resources have risen grave concerns among nations. Consequently, different regional governments have implemented stern policies and guidelines to curb the mixture of released wastewaters into mainstream water reserves. For instance, in May 2018, the government of Gujrat, a state in India, had introduced a policy named Reuse of Treated Waste Water Policy. The framework is aimed to reduce the reliance on the regional freshwater sources like rivers and support the setup of Sewage Treatment Plants (STP) in the state.

MARKET RESTRAINT

Complexity in Maintaining the Operational Conditions and High Cost Associated with Repairs May Hinder Market Growth

Submersible pumps are manufactured by hermetically sealing a motor with the body of the pumps to keep external liquid out of the system. Thus, corrosion or loosening of the seal over time may lead to outer water or liquid to seep in the system and dangerously harm the pumps. This leads to a pump failure condition requiring the inevitable repairing of highly expensive motors and other internal parts.

SEGMENTATION

By Capacity Analysis

Medium Capacity Submersible Pump Are Anticipated to Lead the Market During the Forecast Timeframe

Based on the capacity, the market is trifurcated into low, medium, and high. The medium capacity segment is projected to account for the major share in the market.
