Published: Jun 2024 | Report Code: OMR2028669 | Category : Electronic Devices | Delivery Format: /

Water cut monitors market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% during the forecast period (2024-2031). A water cut monitor measures the water content (cut) of crude oil and hydrocarbons as they flow through a pipeline. A major factor supporting the market growth is growing offshore oil & gas exploration activities. In recent months, several oil majors have emphasized the need for greater investment in oil and gas.

Market Dynamics

Growing Environmental Concerns Against Crude Oil Production

Petroleum has a broad and diverse environmental impact due to its vast applications. Nonetheless, large amounts of toxic and non-toxic waste are produced during oil and gas extraction, processing, and transportation. Some industrial by-products, such as volatile organic compounds, nitrogen and sulfur compounds, and spilled oil, can pollute the air, water, and soil to unsafe levels if they are not properly controlled. Industry emissions of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane and microparticulate aerosols like black carbon exacerbate global impacts like climate change, ocean acidification, and sea-level rise. Further, fossil fuel extraction is the most significant contributor to the continual buildup of carbon in the earth's biosphere of all human activities. According to the International Energy Agency and others, oil and gas consumption accounted for almost 55.0% (18.0 billion tons) of 32.8 billion tonnes (BT) of CO2 released into the atmosphere in 2017. In 2018, total emissions increased by 1.7% to 33.1 billion tons, the highest level in over a decade. 

Rising Demand from Industries such as Oil and Gas

The global water cut monitors market is experiencing steady growth due to rising demand from various industries such as oil and gas, chemical, and water treatment. Water cut monitors are used to measure the water content in oil and gas streams, which helps in optimizing production and preventing corrosion. The market is expected to witness significant growth in the coming years, driven by increasing investments in oil and gas exploration and production activities. Technological advancements such as the development of wireless and non-contact water cut monitors are also expected to contribute to market growth. Additionally, the growing focus on environmental sustainability and water conservation is likely to result in increased adoption of water cut monitors in wastewater treatment applications. 

Market Segmentation

  • Based on sector, the market is segmented into upstream, downstream, and midstream.
  • Based on location, the market is segmented into onshore and offshore. 
  • Based on application, the market is segmented into well testing, separation vessels, lease automatic custody transfer, tank farms and pipelines, MPFM applications, and refineries.

Separation Vessel is Projected to Emerge as the Largest Segment

The separation vessel segment led the water cut monitors market. Separation vessels are pressure vessels installed to separate the produced crude into gas, oil, and water. Operators prioritize maintaining the quality of the oil obtained after separation while conforming to specifications and standards; this drives the demand for water-cut monitors at these separation vessels. Increasing dependence on unconventional resources has further boosted the demand for separation vessels as the crude obtained from them contains impurities and heavy water content, thereby making it necessary to measure the water content in the oil after the separation.

Upstream Segment to Hold a Considerable Market Share

The upstream segment dominated the market due to the growing demand for oil and gas. Due to real-time monitoring devices, the water cut monitor system is expected to grow during this period, escalating investments in developing additional refining capacity. 

Regional Outlook

The global water cut monitor market is further segmented based on geography including North America (the US, and Canada), Europe (UK, Italy, Spain, Germany, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (India, China, Japan, South Korea, and Rest of Asia-Pacific), and the Rest of the World (the Middle East & Africa, and Latin America). 

Global Water Cut Monitor Market Growth by Region 2024-2031

global water cut monitor market growth, by region

Aia-Pacific Holds Major Market Share

Among all the regions, Asia-Pacific holds a significant share The Asia-Pacific region dominates the market due to increased oil import activity, particularly in Southeast Asian countries such as South Korea and Japan, and increased investment in refinery renovations is projected to drive the monitor market forward. Because of the large expansion of the oil and gas industry in the region, North America dominated the global water shutoff monitor market in 2019. The region features several companies that do high-seas exploration and extradition in the oil and gas business. These areas are primarily responsible for producing crude oil.
