Market Driver

Growing Oil & Gas Industry to Drive Growth of Conventional Lathe Machine Market

In the oil & gas industry, various components such as metallic pieces, engine shafts, sucker rods, stanchions, bolts, and nuts are used in oil drilling and exploration. Here, the lathe machine is used for the production of the above components for quick replacements if there is any equipment damage at the oil field while exploration. In addition, in oil fields, there is often a breakdown of piping systems causing machine tool manufacturers to work strategically to deal with this problem. Here, conventional lathes are used to handle very large diameter pipes as those in the drilling and conveyance sections. The constant need to repair and maintain piping and conveyance systems is increasing the demand for conventional lathe machines across oil fields. Furthermore, the growing oil exploration industry is fueling the market's growth. In May 2022, Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) announced three oil discoveries, including one at Bu Hasa, Abu Dhabi’s largest onshore field. This discovery includes 500 million barrels of oil from an exploration well in the field. The second discovery was in Abu Dhabi’s Onshore Block 3, with ~100 million barrels of oil. The third discovery was made in the Al Dhafra Petroleum Concession. Approximately 50 million barrels of light and sweet Murban-quality crude were found. In addition, various new refineries are being constructed in the Gulf, increasing the need for conventional lathe machines to design oil country tubular goods (OCTG) products, tubing, and piping. For example, Al Zour New Refinery in Kuwait is a US$ 16 billion project by Kuwait Integrated Petroleum Industries Co (KIPIC) and is designed to process heavy crudes and has three crude distillation units (CDU). The operations of the first CDU started in November 2022, and the second CDU is expected to begin its operation in the second quarter of 2023. Another one is Abu Dhabi National Oil Company’s (ADNOC’s) Crude Flexibility Project, for which an investment of US$ 3.5 billion was made to enhance the processing capabilities of ADNOC’s refinery in Ruwais. Once operational, the project will allow to refine up to 420,000 barrels per day (b/d) of heavier and sourer grades of crude. Also, Oman’s Duqm Refinery project, one of the largest refining and petrochemical projects, is expected to start operations by the end of 2023. The project is a 50–50 joint venture between state-owned Oman’s OQ Group and Kuwait Petroleum International (KPI). Once operational, the refinery will increase the country’s refining capacity by refining 230,000 barrels of crude oil products per day. Thus, the growing oil & gas industry is expected to fuel the growth of the conventional lathe machine market.

Segmental Analysis

Based on spindle orientation, the conventional lathe machine market is bifurcated into horizontal and vertical. The horizontal segment is expected to dominate the conventional lathe machine market in 2023. A horizontal lathe is a tool that is designed to cut and shape revolving steel or wood workpieces. The spindle of the horizontal lathe is on the left side of the machine tool and flatbed. Also, the workpiece of the horizontal lathe is clamped on the chuck, helping it to transfer the load to the main shaft, which is borne by the front and rear main bearings. This makes the horizontal lathe more convenient for observation and operation, and a suitable option for processing small and medium-sized wheel discs and shaft parts.

Regional Analysis

The conventional lathe machine market in Asia Pacific was valued at US$ 361.69 million in 2022 and is projected to reach US$ 642.18 million by 2028; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.6% from 2022 to 2028. The conventional lathe machine market in Asia Pacific (APAC) is segmented into China, India, Japan, Australia, South Korea, Taiwan, Vietnam, and the Rest of APAC. Asia Pacific is one of the biggest producers of general machinery, which includes machines such as engines, compressors, fans, pumps, and electric motors, for different industries, including agricultural, industrial, manufacturing, and others. To further expand the production of the above machinery, governments of various countries are taking different initiatives to expand their manufacturing sector. For example, the government of India introduced Goods and Services Tax, interventions to improve ease of doing business, reduction in corporate tax, FDI policy reforms, policy measures to boost domestic manufacturing through public procurement orders, measures for reduction in compliance burden, Phased Manufacturing Program (PMP), and many other initiatives. Thus, such growing initiatives can boost the need for conventional lathe machines as they are used to process different parts of the above general machinery.

Furthermore, Asia Pacific is the biggest producer of automobiles. According to the OICA, in 2022, the region produced ~50.02 million motor vehicles, which account for approximately 60% of the total motor vehicles produced worldwide. Out of this, ~54%, i.e., 27.02 million motor vehicles, are produced in China. In addition, the growing inclination and awareness among the people toward electric vehicles are increasing their production in the region. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), in 2021, out of the electric vehicle (EV) sales across the world, China accounted for half of the total growth. Furthermore, ~3.3 million EVs were sold in China in 2021, which was more than the total EV sales in the world in 2020. Hence, the growing automotive industry in the region is raising the demand for conventional lathe machines as it is used in the production of different automotive parts, including brakes, engine parts, and other components. Thus, all the above factors are fueling the growth of the conventional lathe machine market in APAC.
