In the oil and gas industry, infrastructure constitutes the essential framework of buildings, machinery, and systems vital for energy companies to conduct their operations effectively. Upstream entities heavily rely on infrastructure for discovering and utilizing energy resources, while midstream companies leverage infrastructure for the processing and refining of fuel. Downstream operations utilize infrastructure for the distribution and sale of gas and oil products to retailers.
Oil and gas infrastructure can be categorized into several key segments, including surface and lease equipment, gathering and processing facilities, pipelines for oil, gas, and natural gas liquids (NGL), storage facilities, refining plants, transport for oil products, and export terminals. Surface equipment encompasses the contractor's non-classified equipment, encompassing both above and below-water Dynamic Positioning (DP) equipment that isn't specifically considered Subsea Equipment. These operations encompass transmission and distribution activities deployed both onshore and offshore.

The oil and gas infrastructure market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $739.23 billion in 2024 to $804.06 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to energy demand growth, resource accessibility, market price volatility, infrastructure modernization, carbon emission concerns.
The oil and gas infrastructure market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $1108.31 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.4%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to risk mitigation strategies, flexibility for market shifts, financial and investment trends, resilience in supply chain, remote operations integration. Major trends in the forecast period include energy demand dynamics, resource accessibility, shift to renewable energy, market volatility, geopolitical factors.
The increasing demand for natural gas is expected to drive growth in the oil and gas infrastructure market moving forward. Natural gas is a colorless and odorless fossil fuel, recognized as the cleanest among fossil fuels. Composed of one carbon atom and four hydrogen atoms (CH4 or methane), its rising global demand necessitates the development of corresponding infrastructure. For example, in May 2024, the European Commission, the executive branch of the European Union based in Belgium, reported that in 2023, natural gas demand rose significantly in several countries: Finland (+25.6%), Sweden (+11.1%), Poland (+5.3%), Malta (+4.5%), Denmark (+1.1%), and Croatia (+0.8%) compared to 2022. Thus, the increasing demand for natural gas is propelling the growth of the oil and gas infrastructure market.
The oil and gas infrastructure market is expected to experience substantial growth due to the increasing global energy demand. This demand creates opportunities for substantial investments in infrastructure, enabling the diversification of energy sources, enhancing global energy security, supporting industrialization, and optimizing the extraction, processing, and transportation of energy resources. For instance, projections by the Energy Information Administration suggested a significant increase in energy usage within the U.S. industrial sector, estimated to rise between 5% and 32% from 2022 to 2050, underscoring the influence of growing energy needs on infrastructure development.
Technological advancements are significantly impacting the oil and gas infrastructure market. Leading companies in this sector are leveraging innovative technologies to fortify their market position. For instance, in August 2022, Airbus, a prominent aerospace technology company, has developed satellite-based inspection services for oil and gas infrastructure. These advanced inspection methods, utilizing satellites capable of extremely high-resolution imaging, enable thorough inspections of facilities, machinery, and pipelines, aiding in identifying potential problems that could compromise infrastructure integrity before any harm occurs.
Companies within the oil and gas infrastructure market are placing increased emphasis on product innovation to cater to customer needs effectively. This focus includes the development of intelligent architecture and Exploration & Production (E&P) solutions that integrate cutting-edge technologies and data analytics into the oil and gas industry's systems. Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd., for example, launched intelligent architecture and E&P solutions in September 2023. These solutions incorporate high-performance computing, large-scale data storage, and AI models for exploration, optimizing the research and development processes for oil and gas companies through advanced technologies such as cloud computing and AI.
