As per the analysis by Expert Market Research, the global seamless pipes market is expected to grow at a CAGR of about 4.5% in the forecast period of 2025-2034, owing to technological advancements.
A seamless pipe is a specific type of pipe made from solid rolled steel, converted into the form of round bodies called billets, and then forged into a pipe structure. The pipe’s design allows it to work at higher pressures more effectively. It may be used in oil lines as well as in gas lines for faster and cost-effective transportation. The improved design also makes it more corrosion-resistant than other welded pipes.
North America has seen a significant rise in its fracking operations, causing an impetus in the demand for seamless pipes, which are valued for their superior qualities like operating at higher pressures, faster transportation, and higher cost-efficiency. This is expected to propel the seamless pipes market. With an increase in fracking operations, it is expected that the industry will likely see a sustainable rise in the market value in North America.
Despite disruptions in supply chains and transportation due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Asia Pacific is also expected to witness a significant rise in demand in the coming years because of rapid industrialisation and improvement in infrastructure. The CAGR for Asia Pacific is, therefore, expected to be high in the forecast period.
With seamless pipes offering a better quality of transport with its improved properties as compared to conventional welded pipes, their demand has increased across multiple applications. Specifically, for operations at high pressure and temperatures like oil and natural gas exploration, petroleum refining processes, hydraulic cylindrical apparatuses, and factory equipment like boilers.
The seamless pipes market is further expected to grow with new transmission pipelines being installed across different regions which may have large variations in weather. With research and exploration into other regions for alternative forms of energy, the demand for these pipes may not be majorly restricted to oil and natural gas and will find a sustained rise in other industries as well.
