Market Challenges

• The issue of counterfeit and fraudulent industrial valves in the oil and gas market has emerged as a significant concern. These products, which are illegally manufactured and sold as genuine, pose a serious threat to safety and quality. Counterfeit valves are often of inferior quality and can fail under pressure, compromising the integrity of facilities. For original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), the sale of counterfeit valves results in potential revenue loss and damage to brand equity. Counterfeiters produce and market valves that resemble the original ones, complete with logos, certifications, and data plates. However, upon disassembly, these valves do not meet the required standards. Old valves are sometimes repaired improperly and sold as new. Certification bodies’ certifications are forged, and valves are marketed under false names. Manufacturers are taking steps to combat this issue by forming alliances and raising awareness among end-users and distributors. Some are implementing laser marking on valves to indicate size, material, and pressure class. However, the growth of online marketplaces for counterfeit valves provides wider reach and anonymity for counterfeiters, threatening revenue streams for genuine vendors. This trend is expected to hinder the growth of the global industrial valves market in the oil and gas sector during the forecast period.
• The Energy sector, including Oil & Gas, faces numerous challenges in areas like Diesel and Gasoline production, Natural Gas production from exploration wells, and refining Crude Oil in Refineries and Petrochemical plants. Safety is paramount, with a focus on preventing accidents and spills. Mechanical engineering plays a crucial role in addressing these challenges through the manufacturing sector’s Valve offerings. Valves are essential Industrial Control Components in various applications, including Power Generation, Chemical Plants, and the Automotive sector. In the Oil & Gas industry, valves ensure pipeline safety, minimize leakage, and manage Fluid level, Pressure, Flow, and Temperature in Gas projects. Valve types include Ball, Butterfly, Gate, Globe, Control valves, and Valve automation solutions like Actuators, Sensors, and Smart Valves. The ESD valve market is growing due to increasing focus on Safety and Environmental concerns. The International Energy Agency emphasizes the importance of Clean energy initiatives, which also impacts the Valve market. Valve manufacturers must address challenges such as sealing ability, mechanical devices’ reliability, and adapting to Greener energy sources and Marine operations. The Valve industry continues to evolve, offering innovative solutions for Fluid management in various sectors.

1.1 Gate-  Gate valves are linear motion valves commonly used for on-off applications in the oil and gas industry. They consist of a gate, which is either circular or rectangular, that functions as a barrier to regulate fluid flow in a straight line. Two main types of gate valves exist: parallel-shaped and wedge-shaped. Parallel-shaped gate valves have a flat gate between two parallel seats, making them popular in steam applications. In contrast, wedge-shaped gate valves utilize two inclined seats and a mismatched inclined gate, making them suitable for applications with viscous fluids like oil and gas. These valves are essential in drilling activities and pipeline operations. Their primary demand arises from the construction of pipelines for water and gas supply. Gate valves offer several advantages, including excellent shut-off characteristics, bidirectional flow capability, minimal pressure loss, and suitability for high-pressure applications. Moreover, their affordability is another significant factor contributing to their popularity. The expanding oil and gas infrastructure, including pipelines, refineries, LNG terminals, and petrochemical plants, fuels the demand for gate valves, thereby driving the growth of the global industrial valves market in the oil and gas sector.
