Key Market Trends
Rising Oil & Gas Activities to Boot the Market Demand
- Exploration and production in the oil and gas industry are often carried out in challenging environments, with a complex set of expensive equipment, which experience rapid wear and tear. Hence, nickel alloys find extensive applications in the oil and gas industry, in order to protect the components, enhance their corrosion resistance and part life, and reduce the downtime.
- Owing to its high corrosion resistance, versatility, reliability, and good mechanical properties, they are used in oil and gas applications, such as piping, drilling, pumps, and valves.
- For instance, nickel combined with stainless steel is used for deep-well tubing, in order to enhance the strength and resistance toward corrosion. Additionally, nickel alloys are used for down-hole jewelry
- Moreover, nickel alloys are used as clad wellheads for Christmas trees, which help in easy weldability with steel, coupled with enhanced corrosion resistance properties. Furthermore, these alloys are used for transporting wet corrosive oil and gas. Nickel alloys prevent the usage of inhibitors, to protect the pipeline from corrosion.
- The exploration and production operations have been increasing significantly, as majority of the oil and gas players are looking for new prospects, in terms of availability of crude oil, while employing tertiary recovery methods for mature fields.
- The increasing number of drilling operations in the North American and Middle Eastern regions is expected to positively impact the demand for nickel alloys during the forecast period.
China to Dominate the Asia-Pacific Market
- China is the largest consumer of nickel alloys in the global market and accounted for a healthy share in the global market. increasing demand for electric vehicles is one of the major factors boosting the demand for nickel alloys in the country.
- In China, a majority of the demand for nickel alloys is from the aerospace and automotive manufacturing segment.
- In China, there was a significant increase in the demand for batteries, primarily owing to the expanding production and sales of electric cars.
- China is a leader in the global electric car market, with the sales of new electric vehicles being four times higher than that of the United States.
- Such growth, in turn, is boosting the demand for the market studied. However, the decline in the aerospace sector due to coronavirus outbreak is expected to hinder the growth of the market.
