Global Smart Gas Market to Rise at 32.2% CAGR from 2015 to 2023

Transparency Market Research has published a new market study, titled “Smart Gas Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth Trends, and Forecast 2015 - 2023.” The report says that the global smart gas market will rise at a stupendous 32.2% CAGR from 2015 to 2023. Due to this, the market will reach a valuation of US$10.5 bn by the end of 2023, increasing from US$0.9 bn in 2014.In this report, factors that affect the shift of the smart gas market from its current hub of North America to Europe and further east to the Middle East and Asia Pacific during the 2015-2023 period are analyzed in detail.

Smart gas meters are devices that enable two-way communication between energy providers, distributors, and energy consumers for updated information on gas consumption. Communication modules, flow control devices, data monitoring, gas warning devices, data logging and measurement, and software are the essential components that smart meters are made of.

Environmental mandates applicable at an international level for reducing carbon emissions are the major driver for the installation of smart gas meters worldwide. Other than this, the need to attain energy security across the residential, industrial, and commercial sectors is also significantly boosting the installation of these devices.

Smart gas meters are advantageous from a revenue consideration as well. Due to the availability of first-hand information about gas consumption, consumers can consume energy prudently, which helps in revenue generation in return.

End use, technology, and region are the criteria based on which the smart gas market is analyzed in this report. By technology, the meter data management segment was ahead of all other segments in 2014 with a share of almost 60% in the global market. On the basis of end use, global estimates reveal that residential consumers accounted for a share of almost 75% in the global market in 2014. The remaining 25% of the market was collectively held by commercial and industrial consumers. An increasing number of incentives and subsidies for the installation of smart meters in residential buildings is the reason for the large market share of the residential end-use segment.


In 2014, North America was the leading regional market and accounted for a share of 64% in the global market. This was followed by Europe, wherein regulatory mandates for reducing carbon emissions are the major factor driving this regional market. In 2014, Asia Pacific stood as the third largest market for smart gas. Although the Middle East and Africa exhibited slow growth, environmental regulatory stipulations will boost the installation of smart gas meters in the region in the foreseeable future.

Currently, the smart gas market in South and Central America is exhibiting slow growth. However, initiatives taken by the government to prevent energy theft will benefit the smart gas market in the region. In this regard, the Brazilian government is rolling out smart gas meters to help achieve revenue gains.

Blowout Preventer Market Segment Forecasts up to 2022, Research Reports:Transparency Market Research


Transparency Market Research has released a new market report titled Blowout Preventer (BOP) Market By Configuration (Annular BOP and Ram BOP) and By Location (Onshore and Offshore) – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth Trends, and Forecast, 2014 – 2022. According to this report, the global market revenue for BOP stood at USD 26,096 million in 2013 and is expected to reach USD 38,583.3 million by 2022 at a CAGR of 4.22% from 2014 to 2022.

Complete Report Blowout Preventer Market with TOC : http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/blowout-preventer-market.html

Violation of laws or international mandates pertaining to the spillage of oil or oil related products into the environment generally entails penalties. These penalties vary significantly both at a regional and national levels. After BP’s Macondo well explosion, exploration companies have started focusing more on safety equipment. Hydrocarbon agencies and safety organizations are developing stringent norms to develop safe operating standards in the exploration and production sector.. Bulky, heavy, and designed for redundancy, blowout preventers are the last line of defense against a runaway well. A blowout preventer or a BOP is a large valve usually redundantly installed in stacks to monitor, seal, and control oil wells. BOPs are installed to cope with erratic pressures and uncontrolled flow from wells during drilling operations.

In addition to controlling erratic pressures and flow, BOPs also prevent drilling fluids and tubing from being blown out of the well (during blowouts). BOPs are vital for the safety of a rig, crew, and the environment. BOPs can be used by closing the valve, which is generally operated by a remote control through the hydraulic actuators. BOPs are used for various purpose and are available in different styles, sizes and pressure ratings. It is attached to the well head using flanged or collet connectors and is attached to BOP control system to ensure that the hydraulic pressure is conveyed to right place, at a right pressure as quickly as possible.

Blowout preventers can be used at onshore wells and offshore wells. Oil spill incidents result in the degradation of surroundings that can be aquatic life at offshore or soil degradation at onshore locations. Therefore, pre-oil spill is found to be important in oil and gas drilling activities. Various practices involved in pre-oil spill management primarily include the utilization of blowout preventers for drilling and completion. BOP installation during the drilling activity has become a primary requirement for any onshore and offshore oil and gas field.


Distributors play a vital role in BOP market. These market entities purchase the BOPs from manufacturers and subsequently sell them to rig contractors, oilfield service companies, or directly to E&P companies. These distributors often maintain a large inventory of BOPs which they might rent to the end-users. The rental market for blowout preventers is significantly large since these equipment are very expensive. As blowout preventers are utilized during drilling activities, a single BOP may be used numerous times before it is retired. Hence, distributors have emerged as important entities in the BOP market, especially in the rental segment. Both manufacturers and distributors are capable of providing after sales services for the BOPs they have sold or rented. BOP has emerged as one of the most important equipment required by the petroleum exploration and production industry. BOPs are critical components of any offshore or onshore drilling rig and hence special care needs to be taken during the manufacture, design, and fabrication of these components

BOPs can be classified into ram and annular BOP. Annular BOPs are designed to seal the annular space between the wellbore and the drill pipes. They are usually installed above the ram BOP. They are also known as spherical blowout preventers and utilize a hemispherical rubber as a seal. Annular BOPs are usually not as effective as ram blowout preventers. Ram blowout preventers use a pair of steel plunger rams that can extend up to the center of the wellbore to restrict the flow. The top and inner faces of rams are fitted with elastomeric elements that clamp together with a great force to seal the wellbore. Annular BOPs accounted for 68.2% share of the global BOP market in 2013. BOPs can be used in both onshore and offshore wells. In terms of location, onshore BOPs accounted for 67.6% of the global BOP market in 2013.

In the future, the requirement of BOP stacks is expected to rise gradually as a result of growth in new discoveries of oilfields in offshore areas of South America and Africa and increasing drilling activities globally. The global market for BOP is segmented as follows:

Super Grid Market Growth and Forecast 2014 - 2020


Transparency Market Research’s (TMR) new market study on the global super grid market delineates the importance of robust power distribution networks as integration of remote energy production units with conventional distribution grids becomes necessary to fulfill energy needs. The study is carried out for the North America, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific regions as to how super grid technology is the futuristic technology for power distribution networks. Production capacity, energy consumption, and infrastructural investments are some of the indicators based on which the super grid market is analyzed globally and regionally for the 2014-2020 period. The title of this report is “Super Grid Market - Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Trends, Growth, and Forecast 2014 – 2020” and it is available for sale on the company website.

The report says that increasing energy needs across the world are the foremost reason driving the global super grid market. To bridge the demand-supply gap for energy as much as possible, leading energy companies are formulating plans to tap into renewable sources of energy that are present in abundance. Mostly located in remote areas, renewable energy sources need to be connected with mainstream distribution networks to offload production from conventional energy sources. Mega grids or super grids, as these networks are known, employ super grid technology for high-volume power transmission over long distances.

In most countries around the world, conventional grid infrastructure is obsolete and needs modernization. Employing advanced technologies, not only the power handling capacity of this ageing grid infrastructure can be augmented, but energy security is assured as well, since it is transmitted through secure grids.

In renewable power generation projects, lack of proper equipment is a major roadblock. Lack of large-sized circuit breakers that can handle voltage extremities is a barrier for power transmission to remote areas. To overcome this, development of heavy-duty circuit breakers allows the integration of DC output in conventional grids, which generally work on alternating current (AC) systems. Conventional grids, if equipped with high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cables, facilitate linking regional and country-level grids. Government-sponsored high-volume grid-scaling projects using HVDC transmission, along with several small-size projects, will propel the growth of the super grid market.


Currently, the U.S. is one of the dominant markets for super grids and contains some of the most advanced super grid stations in the world. This includes the Tres Amigas super grid converter station and some other basic converter stations for connecting the Western, ERCOT, and Rasyern electric grids.

The super grid market in Europe is expanding steadily as well. Friends of Supergrid, which is a consortium of global energy companies, is devising a long-term plan for connecting North Africa and Europe using robust transmission infrastructure.

Rooftop Solar PV Market Segment Forecasts up to 2023, Research Reports:Transparency Market Research


Rooftop solar PV is a photovoltaic system, which comprises photovoltaic panels, transformers, electricity systems, and monitoring and mounting equipment along with mounting and installation modules. Photovoltaic panel mounts on the rooftops of commercial or residential structures used to capture the solar radiation for generating emission-free electricity. These panels are made up of silicon wafer and possess a capability of generating both off-grid and on-grid electricity. Solar panels are classified mainly into two types: monocrystalline and polycrystalline. Installation of rooftop solar PV systems mainly depends on insolation value in a particular area. These insolation values are impacted by time of the year, latitude, weather conditions, roof slope, roof aspect, shading from adjacent buildings, and vegetation.
