Dublin, Dec. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Subsea Thermal Insulation Materials Market By Type (Polyurethane, Polypropylene, Silicone Rubber, Epoxy, Aerogel), Application (Pipe-in-Pipe, Pipe Cover, Equipment, Field Joints), and Region - Global Forecast 2018 to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Increasing adoption of offshore oil & gas extraction is expected to drive the subsea thermal insulation materials market.

The subsea thermal insulation materials market is estimated to be close to USD 77 million in 2018 to reach more than USD 93 million by 2023, at a CAGR of 4% during the forecast period. The market is driven by various factors such as steady recovery of the oil & gas industry, reduction of costs related to offshore oil & gas projects, and rising deepwater & ultra-deepwater projects. Fluctuations in crude oil prices are expected to restrain market growth.

By type, the epoxy segment is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The epoxy segment is projected to grow at the fastest rate during the forecast period. The usage of epoxy syntactic foam systems especially, for subsea wet insulation is emerging rapidly. This material can tolerate a wide range of temperatures and is well suited for hot and wet service conditions.

By application, pipe cover is projected to register the highest CAGR during the forecast period.

The pipe cover application is estimated to register the fastest growth rate during the forecast period. Pipe covers are straight pipelines covered with thermal insulation materials. Types of pipelines that can be insulated include carbon steel, super martensitic stainless steel, carbon steel with stainless steel liner, clad steel, and duplex stainless steel. A significant driver of this segment is the rise in deepwater and ultra-deepwater projects across the globe.

South America is likely to register the highest growth rate during the forecast period.

South America is projected to be the fastest-growing market for subsea thermal insulation materials. The rise in the demand for subsea thermal insulation materials is associated with the increase in subsea oil & gas development activities. The number of deepwater and ultra-deepwater projects in Brazil is increasing, which is likely to drive the market in the country as well as in the region.

The leading players in the subsea thermal insulation materials market are Advanced Insulation (UK), AFGlobal (US), Aspen Aerogels (US), BASF (Germany), Cabot Corporation (US), DowDuPont (US), Shawcor Ltd. (Canada), TechnipFMC (UK), and Trelleborg Offshore & Construction (Sweden)
