Market Dynamics

Driver: Increased demand from oil & gas and chemical industries

The oil & gas and chemical industries are the major contributors to the world economy. It is a knowledge-based industry that requires significant investment in R&D. The oil & gas industry is a contributor or supplier to almost every sector of the economy including chemical. Safe, efficient, and sustainable storage, logistics, and transportation are critical parameters in the oil & gas and chemical industries. Ensuring safe handling of the products, and compliance with the environmental regulations are of high importance in both the industries. Apart from this, the efficiency of supply chain operations and optimization of the available resources are the key growth factors for the storage tank insulation market.

Restraints: High capital investment

Storage tank insulation is a capital-intensive process. The installation requires high capital investment. Moreover, the installed materials are continuously exposed to volatile chemicals and adverse environmental conditions. This results in higher corrosion rate of insulation materials. Thus, continuous monitoring and maintenance becomes very crucial for storage tank insulation materials. In case of adverse effects, it becomes necessary to replace the material.

Opportunities: Growing use of renewable insulation materials

In the wake of growing concern towards environment, industries are focusing on renewable materials to reduce carbon footprint. These renewable materials are sustainable and can be recycled. For instance, recycled glass are used in manufacturing glass wool insulation materials. Several companies have already developed insulation products that are made from recycled materials, thereby, saving extra energy that is required for manufacturing an entirely new product.

Challenges: Complex installation process

Key challenge for installing tank insulation products is the technical know-how about the process. The process of installation of any  product is very complicated and time-consuming. Also, after installation the structures are not easy to maintain for compliance and monitor. Industrialists are looking for products which can be easily installed and offer less maintenance cost.

“Rockwool was the largest material type for storage tank insulation market in 2021, in terms of value”

Rockwool accounted for the largest share within storage tank insulation market in 2021. It is widely used in various industries as it can withstand high temperature up to 800°C. Since, it is obtained from molten materials (volcanic rock), it has inbuilt property for thermal and sound insulation. Moreover, the non-combustible nature of the material makes it ideal for application in various industries including oil & gas, chemical and others.

“Oil & Gas was the largest end-use industry for storage tank insulation market in 2021, in terms of value”

Oil & gas is the largest end-use industry of storage tank insulation. There is a growing need for oil & gas storage, especially in the coastal areas and in the Middle Eastern region, thereby increasing the demand for corrosion-resistant, durable, and lightweight storage tanks. In addition, the boom in shale oil exploration and increasing demand for corrosion-resistant tanks are expected to drive the demand for tank insulation in the oil & gas industry.

“Asia Pacific was the largest market for storage tank insulation in 2021, in terms of value.”

Asia Pacific is the leading storage tank insulation market, in terms of value. It is projected to be the fastest-growing market during the forecast period. Rising demand for oil & gas, increasing investment in the energy sector, urbanization, industrialization, and infrastructural development are expected to drive the tank insulation market during the forecast period.
