The pumps market is anticipated to be driven by increasing investments in the oil & gas sector. Technological advancements in pump manufacturing and new product launches focusing on enhanced performance are expected to positively impact the market.

The advancements in pump technology have improved fundamental process operations, increased pump dependability, and provided long-term reductions in routine operating procedures. These developments have also improved pump performance and dependability while using less energy. These advanced pumps are used in various end-use industries such as agriculture, power, industrial wastewater, and chemicals, thereby augmenting their demand over the forecast period.

The demand for pumps in the oil and gas sector is expected to increase as oil and gas companies increase their investment in exploration and production activities around the globe. The market is anticipated to benefit from the increasing number of infrastructure upgrades, such as modifying or installing new pipes.

Non-OPEC and emerging countries are expected to significantly increase their contributions to global oil and gas production. Growing demand for energy, shale gas, and tight gas, owing to the maturity of the conventional oil & gas resources market is expected to be a major driver triggering the growth of the pumps market.

Rising expectations of customers in the past few decades have led to increased spending by the end-user industry globally to improve the quality of industrial pumps along with installing advanced process control. This has led to increased spending by the pump manufacturers in the region in an attempt to improve energy efficiency, which is likely to drive the demand for improved energy-efficient pumps over the forecast period.

The COVID-19 pandemic had a significant negative impact on the growth of the pumps market. in the United States in 2020, as evidenced by operations being halted and import-export activities being hampered. The demand is primarily attributed to a number of end-use industries, including electricity, water and wastewater treatment, and oil and gas, and the market is predicted to experience sluggish growth throughout the projection period.

The commercial and industrial clean water pump (CIP) Energy Conservation Standard and Test Procedure for Pumps was published by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) in early 2016. The standard essentially mandates that by 2020, all pumps sold on the market must be redesigned or reconfigured to meet the new efficiency standards.

Product Type Insights

The centrifugal pump segment led the market in 2020 and accounted for 52% of the global revenue share. Centrifugal pumps are used for higher flows and hence, are extensively used in the chemical industry. These are preferred for low-pressure and high-capacity pumping applications of liquids with viscosities ranging between 0.1 and 200 cP.

Centrifugal pump is further segmented into axial flow, radial flow, and mixed flow pumps. The market of axial flow pumps is expected to show significant growth over the forecast period owing to the increasing demand for high-power pumps in flood dewatering and water & wastewater treatment applications. Axial and radial flow pumps provide superior efficiencies and have low pulsation due to which these pumps are used for a higher delivery head at a low or medium flow rate.

The demand for positive displacement pumps is estimated to witness growth at the fastest CAGR of 3.4%, in terms of revenue, from 2020 to 2028 owing to their efficient working at lower speed and consistent flow rates. Moreover, the preference for positive displacement pumps in the oil & gas industry is likely to complement segment growth.

Manufacturers are using technology to their advantage by developing innovative pumping solutions. New products are equipped with precision control and efficiency using electronic sensors and other digital software. Moreover, the suitability of reciprocating pumps in pumping hazardous fluids is likely to boost the product demand.

Application Insights

The agriculture application led the market in 2020 with a revenue share of more than 25%. Technological advancements in the field of irrigation and farming, especially in emerging countries, coupled with the rising usage of pumps for several purposes in the agriculture segment, such as irrigation, dewatering of crops, reuse, are likely to boost the growth. The construction segment is also estimated to witness significant growth from 2020 to 2028. The rapid development of housing complexes and commercial buildings in prime cities would require proper systems for water availability, disposal of sewage, and treatment of wastewater. Moreover, heavy investments in public infrastructures, such as offices, hospitals, and housing societies, are expected to boost the demand for pumps in the construction industry.

Global pumps market share, by application, 2020 (%)

The demand for pumps in water & wastewater applications is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.6% from 2020 to 2028. The increasing requirement of pump stations in wastewater treatment plants, where gravity flow is not feasible, coupled with high flow rate deliverability and high transmission velocity is likely to augment the market growth. Increasing utilization of shale gas in the energy and manufacturing industries and growing shale gas exploration activities due to technological advancements, such as horizontal and hydraulic drilling, are anticipated to boost the product demand in the oil & gas sector. Furthermore, the penetration of petrochemical products in modern energy systems, such as wind turbine blades, solar panels, batteries, and Electric Vehicle (EV) parts, is expected to drive the market growth.
