據能源新聞5月20日消息稱，據Grand View Research Inc.的一份報告，到2027年，全球天然氣管道基礎設施市場預計將達到3.228萬億美元。

這家總部位于加利福尼亞州的公司表示，在預測期內，這一增長將以收入/數量為基礎的復合年增長率為3.4%。

報告稱，天然氣進口的增加，以及對基礎設施和網絡擴張的投資的增加，可能會增強市場需求。

該市場表示，市場主要是由于安全性得到提高而替換了現有的管道基礎設施，并且某些地區的管道擴建也將帶來重大提振。

報告指出，俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司在薩哈林地區的基礎設施擴建上投資了59億歐元，在2008年至2018年間修建了9條定居點間天然氣管道。

在預測期內，以收入為基礎的復合年增長率為3.3%，油氣管道是增長最快的行業。它說，這是由于在美國和中國發現了新的天然氣儲量。

報告稱，由于全球住宅、電廠和工業對天然氣的需求不斷增長，輸配管道占預計總輸配管道的1.693萬億美元。

報告稱，由于全球天然氣進出口量的增加，到2027年，輸油管道預計將實現3.2%的基于收入的年復合增長率。

報告稱，由于新興經濟體的天然氣消費和對其他地區進口依賴的增加，亞太地區預計將出現最快的增長，其基于收入的復合年增長率為3.7%。

Global gas infrastructure to grow to $3.2T

The global natural gas pipeline infrastructure market is projected to reach $3.228 trillion (U.S.) by 2027, according to a report by Grand View Research Inc.

The growth will expand at a revenue/volume-based compound annual growth rates of 3.4% over the forecast period, the California-based company said.

Rising natural gas imports along with growing investments in infrastructure and network expansion are likely to strengthen market demand, it said.

The market is primarily driven by replacement of existing pipeline infrastructure due to enhanced safety, and pipeline expansion in some regions will also provide a major boost, it said.

It noted that Gazprom had invested 5.9 billion (RUB) on infrastructure expansion in the Sakhalin region with nine inter-settlement gas pipelines constructed between 2008 and 2018.

Gathering pipeline is the fastest-growing segment expanding at a revenue-based CAGR of 3.3% over the forecast period. That is due to the discovery of new gas reserves in the United States and China, it said.

Distribution pipelines represent $1.693 trillion of the forecasted total owing to the growing global demand for natural gas in residential, power plant and industrial uses, it said.

Transmission pipelines are expected to register a revenue-based CAGR of 3.2% to 2027 due to rising natural gas imports and exports all across the globe, it said.

Asia Pacific is expected to witness the fastest expansion with a revenue-based CAGR of 3.7% due to natural gas consumption from emerging economies and growing reliance on imports from other regions, it said.
