Middle East and Africa Gathering Pipeline Market: Industry Analysis and Forecast (2024-2030)

The Middle East and Africa Gathering Pipeline Market Definition:

The long-distance transfer of a liquid or gas through a network of pipes-a pipelines- usually to a market location for consumption. Pipelines transfer liquids and gases, and chemically stable substances can be sent through the pipelines. Pipelines exist to transport crude and refined oils, fuels, and other liquids such as sewage fertilizers, water, beer, etc. Pipelines are used for commercial, home, and industrial purposes. Pipelines are used to transport natural gas to all households. Pipelines are also used for industrial purposes such as refinery crude oil. To meet the rising oil and gas consumption the pipeline capacity will be increased and a new line increase will be outsourced.

The Middle East and Africa Gathering Pipeline Market Dynamics:

Today, the majority of countries face increasing problems with meeting the very rapidly increasing demand for gas, not only for power generation but also for new petrochemical projects. Even with the huge reserves, countries are struggling to keep up with demand growth of 6-7% per year. This is the price of gas that is traded internationally, with new, with very low domestic prices, one-third to one-sixth the cost of new domestic production. Due to this situation, countries including traditional exports, are importing pipeline gas and LNG. Countries in the Middle East and Africa need to urgently raise domestic gas prices to levels that are least cost-based and ultimately internationally traded. If prices are not raised, subsidies are not raised, subsidies and the associated budget deficits will rise to unmanageable levels or become the future of increasingly serious power shortages.

The only exception to these general trends in Qatar, already the world’s largest LNG exporter, with uncertain growth potential beyond current projects. Saudi Arabia can continue its current import/export ban policy, but only at the expense of increasing the use of oil for power generation. Algeria’s exports will continue to grow slowly but will reach a peak by the end of the decade. Iraq and Israel may become modest gas exporters, but the future for gas exports is miserable.

For decades, Middle Eastern and North African oil and gas producers have been a vital part of the  energy system, accounting for around half of all oil exports and 15% of all-natural gas exports. As the market tightens, as a result of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Middle Eastern and African producers with a long history of supplying dependable energy supplies could play a key in avoiding  shortages. As energy systems shift to a cleaner energy source, this near-term growth in demand for oil and gas from Russian suppliers conflicts with the requirement for the longer-term structural decline in  fossil fuel use. The immediate incentive that producers are facing as a result of the current crisis could lead to longer-term investments that are incompatible with long-term energy solutions. Oil and gas export can be increased in a variety of ways in the Middle East and Africa’s producer economies. They can put more money on upstream capacity and output, which may start producing in a few years. They can focus their efforts on reducing gas flaring and methane leakage, which could boost gas supplies by over 20 billion cubic meters faster. They can also free up supplies by reducing their consumption, beginning with electricity.

A collecting pipeline transports oil and gas products from processing facilities to storage tanks. Crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids are common items transported by these pipelines. These pipes are often shorter than other pipelines and have a diameter of fewer than 18 inches. For crude oil transmission, however, the diameter of these pipes is commonly 2 to 8 inches. Gathering lines as big as 20 inches in diameter have recently been employed in shale extraction. The term "distribution pipelines" refers to a system that combines main and service pipes. The main pipes have a diameter of 2 to 24 inches, while service pipelines have a diameter of fewer than 2 inches. Flow lines are used to transport raw materials from the wellhead to the collecting lines. Feeder pipelines, on the other hand, transport natural gas, crude oil, or natural gas liquids to storage tanks. Feeder pipes are typically 6 to 12 inches in diameter. Various benefits of less than 24 inches pipeline, including long-distance transmission, cost-effectiveness, and efficiency for crude oil transfer, are increased to boost demand in the approaching years, boosting the Middle East and African offshore pipeline market throughout the forecast period.
