Geotechnical services are also employed in the oil & gas and mining industries in addition to construction. The geotechnical services market is majorly driven by the large sum of money invested by government bodies in construction activities in emerging economies. Furthermore, in the approaching years, advances in oil and gas projects are expected to benefit the geotechnical instrumentation and monitoring industry.

Geotechnical Construction Services Market Analysis

The geotechnical construction services market ecosystem comprises of following stakeholders- construction companies, geotechnical construction service specialists, geotechnical construction instrumental manufacturers, and applications. The construction companies reach out to different geotechnical construction service providers before beginning the construction process. Shallow and deep foundations; dam and tailing dam designs; stability analyses for embankment and excavation; ground improvement design; ground anchor and soil nail design; flood prevention structures; design of grout curtains; pavement, waste containment and lagoons; tunnel design; and design of underground structures are few services provided by the specialist to the construction companies. Arup; EGS; Fugro, and Geosyntec Consultants, Inc., among others, are a few companies engaged in the business of offering consulting services for construction activity. The geotechnical construction specialist uses different equipment like proctor compaction & density equipment, universal sample extractor, earth resistance tester, electronic digital weighing machine, and many more for testing purposes. The aforementioned geotechnical construction services are used for an array of applications, such as railways, airports, tunnels, commercial & housing buildings, plants, and factories.

Geotechnical Construction Services Market Overview

Minerals are the backbone of human civilization as their use in different applications has propelled the development of human civilization. Mineral and products made from minerals are used across industries such as power generation, manufacturing, chemical and petrochemical, healthcare & pharmaceutical, and construction. Setting up a mining site requires geotechnical and earthworks design expertise for surface and underground mapping, underground support analysis; stope, shaft, decline, drift, and tunnel designing, subsidence studies; shaft and drift investigation and designing, geological outcrop mapping; surface geophysical surveys; clean water, industrial, and tailings disposal dams designing, etc. Currently, coal, gold, iron ore, aluminum, and copper are among the most mined minerals owing to their vast use in the industrial sector. Such a growing need for minerals is supporting the proliferation of the mining industry, thereby propelling the geotechnical construction services market growth.

Geotechnical Construction Services Market Drivers and Opportunities

Increasing Transport Infrastructure Projects

Transport infrastructure plays a vital role in the development of any economy. It is essential for the streamlined production and distribution of goods, and flourishment of the tourism and hospitality industries. Roadways, ports, airports, and railways are complex engineering projects that require geotechnical construction expertise. With the growing emphasis on economic development, governments of various developed and developing countries are investing significantly in their transport infrastructure development. For instance, the government of China has planned the construction of an additional 215 airports by 2035. In March 2021, the government of China announced its plan to construct a 1,011-km-long railway line to connect Chengdu with Linzhi, with a project cost of ~US$ 48 billion. In 2020, the project of the world's longest immersed rail and road tunnel between Germany and Denmark received a green light. The tunnel will be built by Femern A/S. In September 2020, the construction of the Ceneri Base Rail Tunnel was completed. The rail tunnel is anticipated to connect the Mediterranean and the North Sea in the future. In June 2018, the government of Sweden started following the National Transport Plan for 2018-2029 with a total budget of approximately US$76 billion; the plan will be focused on the development of several new railway constructions along with modernization and upgrading of the existing railway network. In November 2020, the UK government approved the Stonehenge Road tunnel project worth US$2.2 billion. In June 2019, the Canadian Government announced a project worth US$ 500 million for the reconstruction of the country's longest highway tunnel. Thus, such high government emphasis on the development and improvement of the transport infrastructure is paving the way for the geotechnical construction services market growth.

Growing Deployment of Offshore Wind Farms

Governments of European countries are currently emphasizing the North Sea for offshore wind generation due to relatively shallow water bodies. However, as floating technologies mature, the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts have gained greater attention in recent years. The Wind Energy Technologies Office in the US funds research across the country to develop offshore wind technologies that capture wind resources off the US coasts and convert them to energy. Such a diverse portfolio of research, development, and demonstration projects will allow the industry to overcome fundamental barriers associated with offshore wind development; these include comparatively high electricity and project installation costs, environmental mitigation, technical challenges, and grid connection issues. Thus, the development of offshore wind farms will subsequently boost the adoption of geotechnical construction services during the forecast period.
