North America and Europe Flame Arrestor Market Segment Analysis- Geography
North America had accounted for the highest market value of $164.4 Million in 2020, and is analysed to grow at the highest CAGR of 3.2% in the Flame Arrestor market during the forecast period 2021-2026. Factors including rising rate of establishing infrastructures of major industry verticals like oil and gas, petrochemicals and so on, along with stringent regulatory compliance to promote industrial work safety are some of the major factors attributing towards the growth of flame arrestors. Moreover, R&D investments from some of the key market vendors such as Groth Corporation and others, along with rise of manufacturing operations have also helped in retaining the market growth of flame arrestors across the region. Growing rate of industrial fire explosion incidents across hazardous environments as well as periodic inspection of plants owing to fire safety norms will be further aiding the demand towards flame arrestors in the long run across the region. In December 2020, an U.S oil & gas major giant, named ExxonMobil had revealed about its plans of investing over $240 million within its Baton Rouge Refinery. This investment will be aimed at boosting refinery’s processing capability, enhance flexibility to cope up with growing market demands as well as advance its overall competitiveness within the state. Such development projects are further set to drive the need for varied flame extinguishing equipment like flame arrestors during the forecast period 2021-2026.
North America and Europe Flame Arrestor Market Drivers
Rising rate of investments towards oil and gas projects drives the market forward:
Rising rate of investments towards oil and gas projects can be considered as one of the major driving factors boosting the growth of flame arrestors. Due to its highly critical as well as hazardous industrial environment, oil & gas industry serve as a major end-user incorporating fire extinguishing equipment like flame arrestors. Production facilities related to oil & gas extraction, processing, refining and so on utilizes a broad range of hazardous, combustible as well as volatile compounds or chemicals, which adversely impact the industrial safety, thus creating higher adoption of flame arrestors. Pipeline systems used in oil & gas transportation are usually prone to high temperature, pressure and vibrations repeatedly, creating adverse impact on valves, fittings and related components. Due to this continuous and repeated operation across critical environments, there can be spill or leakage issues owing to prolonged wear and tear, causing fire related accidents or deaths, thus boosting the installation of flame arrestors.In October 2020, the Canadian Energy Pipeline Association had revealed about its plans regarding expansion project of NOVA Gas Transmission Ltd., to be scheduled for 2021 under approval from Government of Canada.
