Pipeline and process services encompass critical procedures such as pre-commissioning, commissioning, and ongoing maintenance to ensure the optimal functionality of installed pipelines. These services are pivotal for maintaining pipeline integrity while in operation, involving various essential tasks performed on the pipelines.
Within the realm of pipeline and process services, operations can be categorized into pre-commissioning, commissioning, maintenance, and decommissioning. Pre-commissioning activities focus on verifying the operational readiness of each system component before commissioning starts. The commissioning phase initiates the live operation of the pipeline, adding the product into the system, while ensuring that all construction adheres to safety standards. Assets involved predominantly include pipeline and process components, using materials like plastic, carbon steel, and steel. End-users span across industries including oil and gas, chemicals, water treatment, construction, manufacturing, among others.

The pipeline and process services market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.95 billion in 2024 to $4.17 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 5.8%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to infrastructure rehabilitation, globalization of energy trade, shifts in energy sources, economic factors, infrastructure expansion.
The pipeline and process services market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $5.58 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.5%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to efficiency and cost reduction, water infrastructure services, geopolitical factors, increasing global energy demand, smart infrastructure development. Major trends in the forecast period include energy transition, maintenance and integrity, automation and digitalization, pipeline expansion projects, environmental regulations.
The rising demand for oil and natural gas is expected to drive the growth of the pipeline and process services market. Oil and natural gas are energy sources derived from fossil fuels, which are formed underground over millions of years from the decomposition of prehistoric organisms. Pipeline and process services play a crucial role in maintaining pipelines throughout their lifecycle, ensuring the uninterrupted transportation of these essential fuels. For example, in September 2024, the India Brand Equity Foundation (IBEF), an Indian government export promotion agency, reported that India's oil demand is projected to double, reaching 11 million barrels per day by 2045. As a result, the increasing demand for oil and natural gas is fueling the growth of the pipeline and process services market.
The expanding manufacturing industry is expected to drive the growth of the pipeline and process services market in the coming years. The manufacturing industry encompasses the sector of the economy involved in producing goods through various processes, typically transforming raw materials or components into finished products. Pipeline and process services within the manufacturing industry offer benefits such as improved efficiency, cost savings, enhanced safety, and compliance with quality and environmental standards, contributing to the overall competitiveness and success of manufacturing operations. For example, in September 2024, a report by the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM), a U.S.-based advocacy group, revealed that value-added output in manufacturing increased from $2.881 trillion annually in Q1 to $2.910 trillion in Q2 of 2024. In Q2, manufacturing accounted for 10.0% of the total value-added output in the U.S. economy. Moreover, real value-added output in the manufacturing sector rose from $2.337 trillion annually in Q1 to $2.384 trillion in Q2. Consequently, the expanding manufacturing industry is fueling the growth of the pipeline and process services market.
Leading companies in the pipeline and process services market are introducing innovative technologies, such as pipeline inspection tools, to maintain their market presence. A pipeline inspection tool is a specialized device used to evaluate the condition and integrity of pipelines, ensuring their safe and efficient operation. For instance, in September 2022, Dacon Pipeline Services, a Thailand-based company specializing in the inspection of plastic and concrete material pipelines, unveiled a 3 multi-channel ultrasonic pipeline inspection tool. This tool traverses the pipeline, taking continuous measurements at short intervals to create a high-resolution image of the pipeline. The collected data is then processed by software to produce a precise and readable representation of the pipeline.
Leading companies in the pipeline and process services market are focusing on developing innovative products such as NeoCem E+ and EnviraCem cement barrier systems to boost their revenues. EnviraCem cement offers a mass cement reduction of at least 70%, while NeoCem E+ cement provides a reduction of at least 50%. These systems leverage the synergies between the physical and chemical properties of specialist materials and the cement used for zonal isolation. For instance, in November 2022, Halliburton Company, a U.S.-based provider of products and services to the energy industry, introduced NeoCem E+ and EnviraCem cement barrier systems. These reduced-cement systems ensure higher barrier reliability by delivering superior compressive strength and ductility at a lower density than conventional systems, using an innovative tailoring approach. NeoCem E+ cement technology also helps operators reduce carbon emissions and enhance wellbore integrity.
In August 2022, Pipeline Technique, a distinguished UK-based firm specializing in welding, coating, and cutting-edge engineering for onshore and offshore infrastructure, successfully acquired Stanley's oil and gas division. The undisclosed transaction aimed to position Pipeline Technique as a frontrunner in welding, coating, and technical engineering while expanding its market presence, particularly in Brazil. Stanley Oil and Gas, a reputable US-based provider renowned for its pipeline services and cutting-edge equipment, presented Pipeline Technique with an opportunity to fortify its position in the industry and broaden its clientele.
