Market Dynamic

Key Drivers and Emerging Trends

With the advantage of offering detailed inspection data in less lead time without compromising the precision of the inspection, automated ultrasonic testing market share is expected to gain momentum in upcoming years. With the increasing necessity for the maintenance of ageing assets in oil and gas production fields such as transmission pipelines and storage terminals, growing fleet ships and naval vessels, integrity testing of construction structures in apartments and civic properties is expected to drive the demand for automated ultrasonic testing; an important obligation of testing and inspection services in a regular frequency of every 2-3 years in the aforementioned sites is expected to create huge growth opportunities of automated ultrasonic testing market. The increasing oil and gas pipeline layout worldwide is expected to drive the demand for welding inspection, and it indirectly impacts the demand for the automated testing market in the upcoming year. The automotive industry is increasingly manufacturing vehicles and in the forecast period, the production of electric vehicles (EVs) will further drive the need for automated ultrasonic testing. The marine industry is also crucial as oil and gas and power industry, and the automated ultrasonic testing is giving rise to a significant opportunity for hull inspection. Further, bunker vessel-related projects and other shipyard construction projects will drive opportunities. The rising investment in construction of railways, airports, public infrastructures, etc., is driving automated ultrasonic testing size. Further, in remote areas, the construction of steel bridges and railway tracks also driving the adoption of automated ultrasonic testing.

Increasing demand for a reliable and non-destructive technique to produce carbon fiber and fiberglass stands to be a major factor fueling the ultrasonic testing market size. Growing deployment of ultrasonic testing in the aviation industry to monitor the composite market of aircraft and maintain the safety by analyzing the obstruction of different parts will drive the market growth. In addition, as per the ultrasonic testing market report, the surge in the number of testing cases in nuclear power plants to ensure the safety at the time of construction events is forecast to augment the market size.

Impact of COVID-19 on the Ultrasonic Testing Market

The outbreak of Coronavirus has adversely affected the growth of the ultrasonic testing market. The decline in the number of new oil and gas exploration projects, the temporary shutdown of production plants, and the reduction in crude oil prices hindered the growth of the ultrasonic testing market. However, the short-term supply chain disturbances affected the market growth in key regions.

Restraint in the Ultrasonic Testing Market

However, the lack of skilled and qualified employees to carry out ultrasonic testing activities is a key factor restraining the growth of the Ultrasonic Testing Market. Moreover, the high cost of automated ultrasonic testing compared to traditional ultrasonic testing is another factor that might decrease demand.

Services – Segment Analysis

Based on the Services, the Inspection Services segment is expected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. Its main idea is to inspect objects, materials, machinery, and structures for errors so that they can be rectified in a timely and cost-effective way. During the inspection, one surface of the material has to be available to carry out the inspection. Additionally, in certain instances, an inspection can be carried out on ‘live systems’, which eliminates the need to shut down the factory for inspection.

Based on Services, the inspection services segment is projected to dominate the market over the forecast period. Growing deployment of inspection services in the aerospace industry to detect internal defects in aircraft components with high-level accuracy stands to be a major factor driving the segment’s growth.

Vertical – Segment Analysis

Based on the Vertical, the Power generation segment is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Ultrasonic Testing plays an essential role in ensuring the safety of nuclear power plants both in inspection through construction and while in-service. Furthermore, developing countries such as India are leveraging power grid infrastructure to enlarge their reach of electricity to nearly every household.
