The LNG storage tank market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 2,816.14 million in 2021 to US$ 3,539.85 million by 2028; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% from 2021 to 2028.



The US, Canada, and Mexico are major economies in North America. Rising LNG trade across North America is the major factor driving the growth of the North America LNG storage tank market. At present, the US is the largest producer of natural gas across the world. In the US, natural gas supplies nearly one third of the primary energy and is one of the key heating fuels for almost half of US households. A large volume of LNG is transported through the sea route, where LNG is loaded onto double-hulled ships and the gas is off-loaded to well-insulated storage tanks. Later it is re-gasified for admission into the pipeline distribution network. Moreover, LNG is also shipped in smaller quantities, generally for shorter ocean distances. The growing LNG trade in small-scale shipments is commonly transported in the same containers used on trucks for international trade, particularly outfitted with cryogenic tanks. Additionally, Shell published that the North America LNG trade will be increased to 360 Mt by 2021 from 358 Mt in 2020. Therefore, this rise in the international LNG trade is driving the growth of the LNG storage tanks market.     

Owing to favorable government policies to boost innovation and reinforce infrastructure capabilities, North America have the highest acceptance and development rate of emerging technologies. Any impact on industries is therefore projected to have a negative influence on the region's economic development. Currently, due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the US is the world's worst affected country, thus affecting the sudden stands still across all the industries present in the region.In North America, especially the US, witnessed an unprecedented rise in number of COVID cases, which disrupted its LNG trade activities in the oil & gas sector and subsequently impacted the demand for LNG storage tank in 2020 and is expected to continue in 2021. Additionally, as per the US Energy Information Administration (EIA) due to COVID-19, ~175 US LNG cargoes were cancelled in October 2020, out of which around 80% of the LNG cargoes cancelled, which are scheduled for the summer months. The EIA anticipated that demand of LNG will slowly increase by the end of 2021. Moreover, the considerable decline in overall global gas prices further restricted the oil & gas related projects and other activities that negatively influenced the demand for LNG storage tank. Similar trend was witnessed in other North American countries such as Canada and Mexico. However, the countries are expected to overcome the swift drop in demand as the countries continue to open their economic activities especially in the recent months for revival of business activities. However, the demand for the same could not be catered by the country due to the temporary shutdown of transportation facilities across the region, which has negatively hindered the LNG trade cross-border. Thus, owing to the above-mentioned factors, LNG storage tank market is said to be negatively affected owing to the outbreak of the COVID-19 across the region
