インテリジェントピギング市場の2030年までの予測：パイプラインタイプ別、技術別、用途別、エンドユーザー別、地域別の世界分析

Stratistics MRCによると、世界のインテリジェントピギング市場は、2023年に7億9,928万米ドルを占め、予測期間中にCAGR 6.6％で成長し、2030年までに12億5,026万米ドルに達すると予想されています。

インテリジェントピッグは、パイプラインの健全性を検査するためにパイプラインに送り込まれるロボット装置です。これらのハイテクツールは、磁石や音波などの方法を用いて腐食や亀裂、その他の脅威を特定します。検査中に収集されたデータは、オペレータが潜在的な問題を特定し、メンテナンスの優先順位を付け、安全で効率的なパイプラインの運用を確保するのに役立ちます。

ガス・フレアリング削減に取り組む石油会社、政府、国際機関で構成される世界銀行主導の組織、世界・ガス・フレアリング削減パートナーシップ（GGFR）が発表したデータによると、2016年の世界のガス・フレアリングは149.4bcmで、前年比2％増だった。

パイプラインの健全性検査需要の増加

パイプライン・インフラの老朽化が世界の問題になるにつれ、パイプラインの安全性と信頼性を確保することが重視されるようになっています。規制上の義務や業界基準は、パイプライン事業者に厳密な検査プロトコルの実施をさらに強いています。インテリジェントピギングは、パイプラインの正確で効率的な検査を提供し、欠陥、腐食、その他の異常の早期発見を可能にすることで、包括的なソリューションを提供します。

高い初期投資

インテリジェント・ピギング・システムを導入するには、専用の検査機器の調達、要員の訓練、およびインフラの確立のために、多額の初期資本支出が必要です。この財政的障壁は、一部の組織、特に小規模のオペレーターや予算が限られている組織が、インテリジェントピギング技術の採用を思いとどまらせる可能性があります。さらに、既存のパイプライン・システムとの統合の複雑さと、継続的なメンテナンスの必要性が、市場をさらに阻害します。

スマートピギング技術の採用拡大

スマートピギングは、リアルタイムのデータ収集、高解像度の画像処理、予測分析を含む高度な機能を提供し、より正確で効率的なパイプライン検査を可能にします。この技術により、オペレーターは欠陥を早期に発見し、メンテナンス・スケジュールを最適化し、ダウンタイムを最小限に抑えることができ、最終的には業務効率と安全性を向上させることができます。産業界が資産の完全性と規制遵守をますます優先するようになるにつれて、スマートピギング・ソリューションの需要が高まり、市場成長が促進されると予想されます。

サイバーセキュリティ攻撃

パイプライン検査に関わるデータは機密性が高いため、サイバーセキュリティ攻撃はインテリジェントピギング市場に大きな脅威となっています。ハッカーは、インテリジェントピギング操作に関連する通信システムやデータ保管施設を標的にし、検査データの完全性と機密性を損なう可能性があります。これは、重要インフラ情報への不正アクセス、妨害行為、データ操作につながる可能性があり、深刻な安全リスクや環境危険につながる可能性があります。

COVID-19の影響：

COVID-19の流行は、労働力の混乱、旅行制限、サプライチェーンの課題によるパイプライン保守プロジェクトの遅延やキャンセルを引き起こし、インテリジェントピギング市場に影響を与えています。しかし、同市場では、社会的距離を置く措置を遵守しながらパイプラインの完全性を確保するための遠隔監視・検査ソリューションに対する需要も増加しており、業界の技術革新を促進しています。

予測期間中は液体セグメントが最大になる見込み

インテリジェントピギング市場では、特に石油・ガス産業において、原油、精製品、化学品の輸送需要の増加に対応するために液体パイプラインネットワークが拡大し、インテリジェントピギングサービスの需要を牽引していることから、液体分野が予測期間中最大になると予想されます。さらに、パイプラインの安全性と環境保護に関する厳しい規制が、液体パイプラインにおけるインテリジェントピギングのような高度な検査技術の採用をさらに促進しています。

予測期間中、超音波検査分野のCAGRが最も高くなると予想されます。

超音波検査セグメントは、予測期間中にインテリジェントピギング市場で大きな成長を示すと予想されています。この成長は、より小さな欠陥を検出し、様々なパイプライン材料の正確な厚さ測定を提供する超音波検査の優れた能力に起因することができます。さらに、超音波センサー技術とデータ解析の進歩が超音波検査の効率と信頼性を高め、パイプライン検査用途への採用を促進しています。

最大シェアの地域：

予測期間中、北米は、広範なパイプラインネットワーク、パイプラインの完全性検査を義務付ける厳しい規制要件、成熟した石油・ガス産業のために、インテリジェントピギング市場を独占するように配置されています。さらに、パイプラインのインフラメンテナンスへの投資の増加とインテリジェントピギングソリューションの技術的進歩は、市場の成長をさらに強化します。さらに、この地域のパイプラインの安全性とメンテナンスに対する積極的なアプローチは、高度な検査技術の採用を促進し、インテリジェントピギング市場におけるリーダーシップを確固たるものにしています。

CAGRが最も高い地域：

アジア太平洋地域は、予測期間中にインテリジェントピギング市場において急速な拡大が見込まれています。この成長は、石油・ガスインフラへの投資の増加、エネルギー需要の増加、パイプラインの安全性を促進する厳しい規制によって推進されます。さらに、中国、インド、東南アジア諸国のような国々における経済発展と都市化が、パイプラインの検査とメンテナンスソリューションの必要性を促進し、この地域におけるインテリジェントピギング技術の採用に拍車をかけています。

According to Stratistics MRC, the Global Intelligent Pigging Market is accounted for $799.28 million in 2023 and is expected to reach $1250.26 million by 2030 growing at a CAGR of 6.6% during the forecast period. Intelligent pigs are robotic devices sent through pipelines to inspect their health. These high-tech tools use methods like magnets and sound waves to identify corrosion, cracks, and other threats. Data collected during the inspection helps operators identify potential issues, prioritize maintenance, and ensure safe and efficient pipeline operations.

According to the data released by Global Gas Flaring Reduction Partnership (GGFR)), a World Bank-led organization comprising oil companies, governments, and international institutions working to reduce gas flaring, the global gas flaring in 2016 was 149.4 bcm, an increase of 2% from the previous year.

Market Dynamics:

Driver:

Increasing demand for pipeline integrity inspection

As aging pipeline infrastructure becomes a global concern, there is a heightened emphasis on ensuring the safety and reliability of pipelines. Regulatory mandates and industry standards further compel pipeline operators to implement rigorous inspection protocols. Intelligent pigging offers a comprehensive solution by providing accurate and efficient inspection of pipelines, enabling early detection of defects, corrosion, and other anomalies, thus mitigating the risk of costly failures and ensuring operational integrity.

Restraint:

High initial investment

Implementing intelligent pigging systems requires substantial upfront capital expenditure for procuring specialized inspection equipment, training personnel, and establishing infrastructure. This financial barrier can deter some organizations, particularly smaller operators or those with limited budgets, from adopting intelligent pigging technology. Additionally, the complexity of integration with existing pipeline systems and the need for ongoing maintenance further hinder the market.

Opportunity:

Growing adoption of smart pigging technologies

Smart pigging offers advanced capabilities, including real-time data collection, high-resolution imaging, and predictive analytics, enabling more accurate and efficient pipeline inspections. This technology allows operators to detect defects early, optimize maintenance schedules, and minimize downtime, ultimately improving operational efficiency and safety. As industries increasingly prioritize asset integrity and regulatory compliance, the demand for smart pigging solutions is expected to rise, driving market growth.

Threat:

Cybersecurity attacks

Cybersecurity attacks pose a significant threat to the intelligent pigging market due to the sensitive nature of the data involved in pipeline inspections. Hackers could target the communication systems or data storage facilities associated with intelligent pigging operations, compromising the integrity and confidentiality of inspection data. This could lead to unauthorized access to critical infrastructure information, sabotage, or data manipulation, potentially resulting in severe safety risks or environmental hazards.

Covid-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the intelligent pigging market by causing delays or cancellations in pipeline maintenance projects due to workforce disruptions, travel restrictions, and supply chain challenges. However, the market has also seen increased demand for remote monitoring and inspection solutions to ensure pipeline integrity while adhering to social distancing measures, driving innovation in the industry.

The liquid segment is expected to be the largest during the forecast period

In the intelligent pigging market, the liquid segment is anticipated to be the largest during the forecast period owing to the expansion of liquid pipeline networks, particularly in the oil and gas industry, to meet growing demand for transportation of crude oil, refined products, and chemicals, which drives the demand for intelligent pigging services. Moreover, stringent regulations regarding pipeline safety and environmental protection further propel the adoption of advanced inspection technologies like intelligent pigging in liquid pipelines.

The ultrasonic testing segment is expected to have the highest CAGR during the forecast period

The ultrasonic testing segment is anticipated to exhibit significant growth in the intelligent pigging market during the forecast period. This growth can be attributed to the superior capabilities of ultrasonic testing in detecting smaller defects and providing accurate thickness measurements in various pipeline materials. Additionally, advancements in ultrasonic sensor technology and data analytics are enhancing the efficiency and reliability of ultrasonic testing, driving its adoption for pipeline inspection applications.

Region with largest share:

Over the forecast period, North America is positioned to dominate the intelligent pigging market due to extensive pipeline networks, stringent regulatory requirements mandating pipeline integrity inspections, and a mature oil and gas industry. Moreover, increasing investments in pipeline infrastructure maintenance and technological advancements in intelligent pigging solutions further bolster market growth. Additionally, the region's proactive approach to pipeline safety and maintenance drives the adoption of advanced inspection technologies, solidifying its leadership in the intelligent pigging market.

Region with highest CAGR:

The Asia Pacific region is poised for rapid expansion in the intelligent pigging market during the forecast period. This growth is propelled by increasing investments in oil and gas infrastructure, rising demand for energy, and stringent regulations promoting pipeline safety. Additionally, economic development and urbanization in countries like China, India, and Southeast Asian nations are driving the need for pipeline inspection and maintenance solutions, fueling the adoption of intelligent pigging technologies in the region.
