Global oil and gas corrosion protection market by upstream sector
The upstream sector of the oil and gas industry involves exploration and production (E & P) of crude oil and natural gas. It involves drilling of exploratory wellbores for unearthing oil, natural gas, and other products. The extreme environmental conditions during offshore and onshore exploration and production are expected to drive the demand for oil and gas corrosion protection. Several components such as crude oil tanks, on hull externals, general structural steel, water ballast tanks, and decks for offshore equipment such as floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) require corrosion protection for proper flow of oil and gas.
Global oil and gas corrosion protection market by midstream sector
The midstream sector is related to the transportation of crude oil and natural gas. Leakages related to the transportation can cause environmental damage. Thus, stringent regulations and policies related to the transportation of oil and gas are expected to drive the demand for oil and gas corrosion protection.
“Oil, gas, and other hydrocarbon products are transported by various means such as tankers, pipelines, and tank cars. The outer surface of pipelines and tanks are protected from atmospheric corrosion with the help of paints, coatings, and other corrosion inhibitors, which augurs well for the growth of the market,” says Hitesh.
Global oil and gas corrosion protection market by downstream sector
In the downstream sector, most of the corrosion occurs due to the presence of carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, water, and sodium chloride. The refinery operation is also prone to corrosion due to the presence of sulfuric acid.
The deterioration mainly occurs due to the presence of curing agents in crude oil or the feedstock. To prevent such corrosion, various products such as paints, coatings, and inhibitors are used. They are used to coat valves, pipework, chimneys, vessels, and steelwork in refining and processing for the oil and gas industry. The increasing use of anti-corrosion products for coastal loading structures and jetties, where early water-resistance is required, is also expected to augment the global market.
