Market Insights

Increasing Demand for Africa intelligent pipeline pigging market in Nigeria

The Nigeria pipeline pigging market was worth US$ 4.98 million in 2018 and is projected to reach US$ 10.48 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% during the forecast period. The Nigerian government is highly focusing on the development of new infrastructure. For instance, in January 2020, the Nigerian government secured US$ 2.5 billion for financing the development of the gas pipeline.

The country owns 202tn ft³ of proven gas reserves and an additional 600tn ft³ of unproven potential resources. Even though having the largest gas reserves in Africa, only c.25pc of these reserves are currently productive. However, NNPC has scheduled commissioning of the new pipeline in 2020, AKK forms phase one of the Trans-Nigeria Gas Pipeline (TNGP) project, and The TNGP project itself is part of the Trans-Sahara Gas Pipeline System that will ultimately link Southern Nigeria with customers in Europe. The AKK pipeline project is being implemented using a build and transfer (BT) public-private partnership (PPP) model, is expected to transport 3.5bn ft³/d of dehydrated wet gas from multiple projects in the southern part of the country. Thus, the development of a new pipeline is expected to boost the market for intelligent pipeline pigging in the country.

Frequently Asked Questions


What are market drivers for Africa intelligent pipeline pigging market?

There has been tremendous rise in the implementation of pipeline systems in developed countries. Countries in the African region with huge reserves of crude oil for the transportation of natural gas, crude oil, and petroleum products are also experiencing the increase in this the implementation of these systems.
The techniques used for nondestructive examination by smart pigs include magnetic flux leakage testing and ultrasonic testing; these techniques help inspect pitting, metal loss, weld anomalies, erosion corrosion, and hydrogen-induced cracking, among others. They are also able to gather data on the pipeline's bends, curvature, diameter, and temperature.
Smart pigs enable the inspection of an entire pipeline without any human intervention to go down its entire length. Thus, the demand for smart pigs is increasing, as they provide more efficiency in terms of inspection as well as cleaning.

Which end-users segment generates the highest revenue?

Gas industry has largest implementations of pipelines in terms of length throughout the world and hence are the largest users for pipeline pigging solutions, which generates the highest revenue in Africa intelligent pipeline pigging market.
Natural gas is a source of energy that is required in various purposes. Almost 70% of the pipelines constructed globally are used to transport gas and gas related materials.

What are market opportunities for Africa intelligent pipeline pigging market?

Pipeline pigs have been conventionally in use for cleaning and maintenance purposes. Earlier, the pigs with large cross-sectional sizes were available in the market, which limited their operations to large cross-sectional pipes; this was mainly due to the large sizes of electronics and power systems attached with the intelligent pigs. However, significant variations in the internal diameters of the pipes made their inspection difficult. In recent times, due to miniaturization of electronics, small-diameter pigs have been developed for enabling the inspection of pipelines with smaller diameters. Many of the multi-diameter pipelines were built before in-line inspection was even invented, these multi-diameter pipes are of smaller diameter, which are difficult to inspect. Thus, currently, there are rising demands for small-diameter intelligent pigs.
Moreover, the need for cost-efficient pipelines have resulted in the development of dual-diameter pipelines in the recent years. With the assessment of the integrity of multi-diameter pipelines becoming a mandate, the operating range of related inspection tools has increased vastly.
