Distributed fiber optic sensor market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 7.5% during the forecast period. The availability of next-generation sensors enables users to measure strain, temperature, or pressure over numerous locations simultaneously. The growing demand for the 5th generation based distributed fiber optic sensor is propelling the growth of the market during the forecast period. For instance, in May 2021, AP Sensing launched the 5th generation acoustic sensing series. The launch of AP Sensing’s fifth generation DAS system builds upon the company’s measurement capabilities with the superiority of unique 2P Squared technology. Further, these proven system capabilities are all encompassed within a compact and portable system design that can operate even in harsh environmental conditions. The new generation of DAS technology improves understanding of the needs of customers. Its unique system architecture ranges for true phase-based systems without requiring amplification along with enhancing usability, reducing signal artifacts such as fading, and improving measurement performance.
Segmental Outlook
The global distributed fiber optic sensor market is segmented based on fiber type, application, and end-users. Based on the fiber type, the market is bifurcated into single mode and multi-mode. Based on the application, the market is sub-segmented into strain sensing, temperature sensing, acoustic/ vibration sensing, pressure sensing, and others. Based on the end-users, the market is augmented into oil and gas, power and utility, safety and security, industrial, civil engineering, and others. The above-mentioned segments can be customized as per the requirements. Among the end-users, the safety and security sub-segment is expected to hold a substantial growth rate during the forecast period. The primary factor attributing to the segmental growth includes the growing use of optical fiber by the defense system. Border security utilizes a distributed fiber optic intrusion sensor for continuous monitoring, with alarms being triggered when an intrusion is detected. Through the use of distributed fiber optic sensors, the detection range can be extended to hundreds of kilometers. Thus, growing demand for the market.
Among the application, temperature sensing is expected to provide lucrative growth to the market. Temperature sensing offers effective temperature management practices with high accuracy. Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) uses fiber optic sensor cables, typically over lengths of several kilometers, that function as linear temperature sensors. The growing demand for monitoring long-distance and wide-range temperature distribution is propelling the temperature sensing segment growth. For instance, in April 2020, Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd. launched the OPTHERMO FTS3500 fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing system. The system utilizes optical fiber as a temperature sensor, measuring temperature distribution along the optical fiber, thus measuring temperature and distance at the same time. The system has several features such as monitoring long distances, the wide-range temperature distribution with just one optical fiber, high accuracy and reliability. Due to such features, OPTHERMO is also applied to a wide range of equipment and facilities, including tunnels (fire detection), conveyors (abnormal heat), computer server rooms, and food warehouses (temperature).
Regional Outlooks
The global distributed fiber optic sensor market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and Others), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Others), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). The market can be analyzed for a particular region or country level as per the requirement. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to hold a remarkable market share in the distributed fiber optic sensor market due to rising construction and infrastructure activities in the region.
Global Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market Growth, by Region 2022-2028
North America Region is Expected to Hold a Prominent Share in the Global Distributed Fiber Optic Sensor Market
Among all regions, North America is expected to hold a significant share in the distributed fiber optic sensor market during the forecast period. The presence of a large number of oil and gas industry players in the region facilitates higher adoption of distributed fiber optic cables. According to the US Information Administration, the US produced nearly 34.4 trillion cubic feet of natural gas in 2020 using hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling techniques. Both techniques involve high-performance optical fibers. Moreover, the rising price of crude oil globally is also promoting oil and gas producers to deploy more affordable and efficient supporting systems to improve profit generation capability, which in turn will accelerate the growth of the distributed fiber optic sensor market. The use of fiber optics in the oil and gas industry is more common as well where it is used for well and pipeline monitoring.
Market Players Outlook
The major companies serving the global distributed fiber optic sensor market include AP Sensing GmBH, Corning Inc., Luna Innovations Inc., Optromix, Inc., Silixa Ltd., Solifos AG, Viavi Solutions, Inc., and others. The market players are considerably contributing to the market growth by the adoption of various strategies including mergers and acquisitions, partnerships, collaborations, funding, and new product launches, to stay competitive in the market. For instance, in March 2022, Expro acquired 100% of Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) company, SolaSense Ltd. The acquisition will allow Expro to fulfill industry demand to offer customers a unique one-stop-shop service for in-depth evaluation of the entire well.
