Investment in oil and gas exploration, particularly in ultra-deepwater and deepwater ventures, is picking up steam owing to a rising demand for energy resources. Technologies for protecting against corrosion are increasingly popular with old infrastructure in need of better upkeep and pipelines with longer lives. Coatings, inhibitors, and cathodic protection technologies are in high demand with government and company investment in offshore drilling and refinery operations.

Growing Use of Intelligent Coatings: Smart coatings with corrosion-protective and self-healing nanoparticles are becoming increasingly popular in industrial uses. Smart coatings provide self-healing, real-time corrosion sensing, and extended lifespan. Scientists are developing sensor-coated coatings that can sense corrosion early on, leading to cost savings and extended asset lives. Smart protective coatings of such advanced types are becoming increasingly important, particularly for deep-sea and offshore drilling operations.

Middle Eastern & African oil & gas corrosion protection industry captured the highest market share of over 32.5% in 2024. The region is home to huge oil and gas reserves in countries such as Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Iran, Oman and the UAE, which necessitate massive infrastructural developments and revamps at frequent intervals, e.g., pipelines, refineries, and offshore platforms, since it is imperative to protect such assets from corrosion to sustain their lifespan and functional efficiency. For instance, according to the current estimates by Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), 1,241.33 billion barrels of proved crude oil reserves worldwide are found in OPEC Member Countries. Of these, the reserves found in Middle Eastern member of OPEC account for 67.3% of the total reserves. These circumstances have generated higher demand for corrosion protection solutions that can prevent the loss of assets and equipment.
