Gas Treatment Global Market Report 2025

Gas treatment encompasses processes utilized to prepare mine gas for various end-use management options, such as pipeline injection. These processes include dehydration, gas separation, and the removal of non-methane components. Gas treatment aims to enhance gas quality by introducing potent cleaning chemicals that combat the build-up of hazardous deposits in the fuel system, which can adversely affect performance. Additionally, gas treatment addresses the removal of water, which can lead to fuel line freeze.

The main types of gas treatment are categorized as amines and non-amines. Amine gas treatment involves the use of aqueous solutions of various alkylamines to dissolve and remove hydrogen sulfide and carbon dioxide from refinery sour gases. Applications of gas treatment include acid gas removal and dehydration, with end-users spanning power plants, refineries, pulp and paper, metal and mining, food and beverages, oil and gas, and sugar industries. Gas treatment plays a crucial role in ensuring the quality and safety of gases used in diverse industrial applications.

The gas treatment market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $4.43 billion in 2024 to $4.69 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.0%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to environmental regulations, industrial expansion, rising concerns for health and safety, increasing demand for clean energy, urbanization, and industrialization.

The gas treatment market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.97 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.2%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to stringent environmental regulations, rising global industrialization, focus on sustainable solutions, shift to renewable energy, urbanization, and pollution control. Major trends in the forecast period include customization and modular solutions, digital transformation in gas treatment, resilience against pandemics, globalization and trade compliance, adoption of biogas and biomass.

The rapidly increasing demand for natural gas is expected to drive the growth of the gas treatment market in the future. Natural gas plays a crucial role in gas treatment for processes such as extraction, removal, separation, and liquefaction. As the demand for natural gas rises, so does the need for gas treatment solutions. For example, in April 2024, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), a government agency in the U.S., reported that in 2023, the electric power sector saw the most significant growth in natural gas consumption among U.S. economic sectors, with a 7% increase (2.2 Bcf/d), climbing from 33.2 Bcf/d in 2022 to a record high of 35.4 Bcf/d. Therefore, the surging demand for natural gas is propelling the growth of the gas treatment market.

The rise in shale gas production is expected to drive the growth of the gas treatment market in the future. Shale gas is natural gas that is trapped within shale rock formations beneath the Earth's surface. Extracting shale gas presents unique challenges, such as dealing with impurities and contaminants, which makes gas treatment processes essential for ensuring environmental compliance and improving gas quality. The demand for gas treatment solutions stems from economic growth in shale gas regions, the need for compatible infrastructure, and the integration of shale gas into the global energy supply. For example, in December 2022, the Energy Information Administration, a U.S.-based government agency, reported that U.S. shale gas production rose by 7%, from 26,139 million cubic feet in 2021 to 27,985 million cubic feet in 2022. Therefore, the increase in shale gas production is fueling the growth of the gas treatment market.

Technological innovation is becoming a prominent trend in the gas treatment market. Leading companies in this sector are focusing on developing new technologies and conducting research to enhance gas treatment processes. For example, in September 2024, Petroleo Brasileiro S.A., a Brazil-based petroleum company, unveiled a natural gas processing unit in Rio de Janeiro. This new UPGN facility, situated at the Boaventura Energy Complex, has the capacity to process up to 21 million cubic meters of gas daily from the Santos Basin, which will significantly increase Brazil's domestic gas supply and decrease reliance on imports. Planned future expansions include gas-fired thermoelectric plants and refining units to boost production capabilities for lubricating oils, diesel, and aviation kerosene. Additionally, the latest technique integrates a mobile NIR (near infrared) spectrometer with advanced data processing (chemometrics). Soon, users will be able to directly inject plant samples into the digilab device and receive instant component analysis.

Leading companies in the gas treatment market are concentrating on developing advanced motion control solutions, such as the OML58 gas production system, to improve operational efficiency and optimize the extraction process. The OML58 system is specifically designed to enhance gas extraction and processing, maximizing output in hydrocarbon operations. For example, in June 2024, TotalEnergies SE, a France-based petroleum company, introduced the Ubeta Gas Development to supply the Nigeria LNG liquefaction plant. TotalEnergies, which holds a 40% stake in Nigeria's OML 58 license, has finalized plans for the Ubeta gas field, expected to produce 300 million cubic feet of gas per day by 2027. This project emphasizes low emissions by utilizing existing processing infrastructure and a 5 MW solar facility to reduce carbon intensity. Furthermore, it aims to promote local employment, with over 90% of work hours being performed by local workers, thereby boosting Nigeria's economy through increased NLNG exports.

In February 2022, Enterprise Products Partners L.P., a prominent U.S.-based midstream natural gas and crude oil pipeline company, successfully acquired Navitas Midstream Partners LLC in a deal valued at $3.25 billion. This strategic acquisition is aimed at reinforcing Enterprise's position in key aspects of the energy sector, specifically natural gas gathering, treating, and processing in the core of the Midland Basin of the Permian. The assets of Navitas Midstream Partners complement Enterprise's existing presence in the Delaware Basin. Navitas Midstream Partners, headquartered in the United States, is recognized for its offerings in natural gas gathering, treating, and processing services.
