地下儲氣庫市場 - 增長、未來展望、競爭分析,2023 年至 2031 年Underground Gas Storage Market - Growth, Future Prospects and Competitive Analysis, 2023 - 2031 |
在 2023 年至 2031 年的預測期內,全球地下儲氣庫市場預計將以 3% 的複合年增長率增長。 通常建造地下儲氣設施以滿足世界季節性的天然氣需求。 氣體在低需求期間保留在存儲設施中,並在高需求期間被移除。 它利用大型地下水庫儲存天然氣。 地下天然氣儲存設施,包括枯竭氣藏、鹽洞和含水層儲層,在世界範圍內都有使用。 這些儲存設施對於確保穩定的天然氣供應以滿足世界不斷增長的能源需求至關重要。
推動該行業擴張的一個主要因素是工業化進程。 天然氣被認為是世界上最重要的能源。 由於儲量豐富、環境友好和用途廣泛,預計天然氣將在能源需求高的國家發揮越來越重要的作用。 在美國,隨著氫電池和氫汽車的普及,氫的消耗量正在迅速增加。 在美國,有幾家公司正在投資建設地下儲氫設施,以滿足日益增長的氫氣需求。
隨著天然氣、氫氣等在許多行業的廣泛應用,天然氣板塊將在 2022 年引領行業發展,佔全球總量的 92%。 在商業領域,天然氣用於加熱建築物和水、運行製冷和冷卻設備、烹飪食物、烘乾衣服和照亮外部。 天然氣還用作熱力和動力系統中的燃料。 到 2022 年,商業部門將占美國天然氣總消耗量的約 11%,佔商業能源總消耗量的約 20%。
按類型分,有枯竭氣藏、含水層儲層、鹽洞等。 由於天然氣產量增加,枯竭氣藏板塊將在 2022 年引領市場,佔全球產量份額的 65%。 已使用數十年的枯竭天然氣儲量佔世界天然氣總儲量的76%。 氣田比鹽洞更廣泛,儲量更大。 預計全球對這些水庫的需求將受到政府對其擴張的監管加強的推動。 截至 2022 年,約 11% 的現有地下天然氣儲存庫位於含水層之下。 含水層的地質狀況可與枯竭的天然氣礦床相媲美。 含水層是由多孔和可滲透的岩石組成的地下水儲存結構。 然而,它是儲存天然氣最不理想和最昂貴的選擇。 形成鹽洞的是預先存在的鹽礦床。 鹽牆可用於儲氣,因為它們具有鋼的結構強度,並且可以在儲存設施的整個生命週期內承受儲層退化。
到 2022 年,歐洲將在全球行業中佔據壓倒性地位,約佔 55% 的市場份額。 俄羅斯擁有世界上最大的已探明天然氣儲量,達 38 萬億立方米(1,341 萬億立方米)。 歐洲 170 多個地點擁有約 4,269.6 bcf(十億立方英尺)的地下儲氣庫,其中 42% 在德國。 就枯竭儲層而言,法國、德國、俄羅斯和意大利對天然氣儲存的需求最大。 由於其深度和天然碳氫化合物資源,枯竭油田含有最多的天然氣。
由於跨國公司的相對集中度和高競爭力,全球市場競爭激烈。 ADNOC、Baker Hughes Company、Chart Industries、Enbridge Inc.、NAFTA a.s.、NOV Inc.、Royal Vopak 和 TransCanada PipeLines Ltd 是全球地下儲氣庫市場上最炙手可熱的參與者。
The global underground gas storage market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3% during the forecast period of 2023 to 2031. Underground gas storage facilities are generally constructed to meet the global seasonal demand for gases. Gases are retained in storage facilities during periods of low demand and removed during periods of high demand. Utilizing large underground reservoirs to store gases. Globally utilized underground natural gas storage facilities include depleted gas reservoirs, salt caverns, and aquifer reservoirs. These storage facilities are crucial for ensuring a steady supply of gas to fulfill the expanding worldwide energy demand.
The key element driving the expansion of this industry is growing industrialization. Natural gas is regarded as the world's most important energy source. It is anticipated that this gas will continue to play an increasingly important role in countries with high energy demands due to its abundance, eco-friendliness, and expanding use in a wide variety of applications. Hydrogen consumption has also surged in the United States as a result of the widespread development and acceptance of hydrogen cells and hydrogen-powered cars. Several corporations have begun investing in underground hydrogen storage facilities in the United States to meet the nation's rising need for hydrogen.
Due to the widespread applications of natural gas, hydrogen, and others in many industries, the natural gas segment led the industry in 2022 and accounted for 92% of the worldwide volume share. In the business sector, natural gas is used to heat buildings and water, operate refrigeration and cooling equipment, cook, dry clothes, and illuminate outdoor areas. Natural gas is also employed in heat and power systems as a fuel. In 2022, the commercial sector accounted for around 11% of total natural gas consumption and 20% of total commercial energy consumption in the United States.
Storage of natural gas underground is necessary to meet the demand for gas supply. Nearly 430 billion cubic meters (bcm) of natural gas have been stored globally as of 2022, which is almost 10% of the total demand. Gas storage facilities can meet both short-term and seasonal swings in demand. Seasonal fluctuations in natural gas prices between winter and summer and short-term price volatility are the two primary growth drivers for the sector. Underground hydrogen storage refers to the process of storing hydrogen underground in salt domes, abandoned oil and gas fields, and caves. Large quantities of gaseous hydrogen have been stored in caves for many years. Hydrogen can be stored underground in mines, aquifers, excavated rock caverns, solution-mined salt domes, or other structures to provide grid energy storage, which is essential for the hydrogen economy. The remaining portion consists of carbon dioxide and helium. Underground storage is possible for supercritical Carbon Dioxide (CO2) with a critical point of 31.1°C and 72.9 atm (about 1,050 psi). At high temperatures and pressures, CO2 exhibits both gaseous and liquid properties. CCS is utilized to extract CO2 from industrial emissions before their release into the atmosphere; the gas is then stored in subsurface geological formations.
The segment of types includes depleted gas reservoirs, aquifer reservoirs, salt caverns, and others. Due to rising gas production, the depleted gas reservoir segment led the market in 2022 and accounted for 65 % of the worldwide volume share. In use for decades, depleted natural gas reservoirs account for 76% of the world's total natural gas storage volume. Gas fields are more extensive and contain more volume than salt caverns. The global demand for these reservoirs is anticipated to be driven by rising government regulation of their expansion. As of 2022, around 11% of the existing underground natural gas storage volume was contained under aquifers. Aquifer geology is comparable to that of depleted natural gas deposits. Aquifers are underground water storage structures composed of porous and permeable rock. However, they are the least desirable and most expensive alternative for storing natural gas. Existing salt deposits are what form salt caverns. They are useful for gas storage because their walls have the structural strength of steel, making them resistant to reservoir degradation over the lifetime of the storage facility.
Unless it is deliberately retrieved, a small amount of natural gas that is injected into storage can escape from salt caverns. The walls of the salt storage facility are durable and airtight throughout time. Salt caverns are typically considerably smaller than depleted gas reserves and aquifer storage facilities. The remainder of the stretch consists of lined hard rock cavern storage and more storage. Inlined hard rock caves, natural gas liquids (propane, butane), and crude oil are stored. In hard rock caves, hydrogen is also stored as a liquefied or compressed gas at pressures between 100 and 250 bar.
Europe dominated the global industry in 2022, accounting for about 55% of the market share. Russia has the world's largest proven natural gas reserves, at 38 trillion cubic meters (1,341 trillion cubic meters). In Europe, approximately 4,269.6 bcf (billion cubic feet) of underground gas storage is available at over 170 locations, 42% of which are in Germany. In terms of depleted reservoirs, the demand for natural gas storage is greatest in France, Germany, Russia, and Italy. Due to their depth and natural hydrocarbon resources, depleted fields contain the greatest quantity of natural gas.
During the projection period, North America is anticipated to emerge as the leading regional market. This is due to the region's increased exploration and production of natural gas and hydrogen. The United States is the largest market for underground gas storage in North America due to its massive production of natural gas. The bulk of existing underground gas storage facilities is situated in exhausted natural gas or oil sources near their respective consumption hubs. However, there has been an increase in the number of natural aquifer and salt cavern-based underground gas storage facilities in the United States.
Due to increased domestic demand from end-use industries in countries such as China, Asia-Pacific is projected to experience a substantial growth rate throughout the forecast period. There have been growing investments in underground gas storage and the construction of new facilities in China. The nation has constructed gas storage facilities to meet the rising demand. China has recently constructed Bannan gas storage, Suqiao gas storage, and Dagang, North China gas storage clusters to bury natural gas.
The global market is highly competitive as a result of the presence of relatively concentrated and highly competitive multinational corporations. On the worldwide underground gas storage market, some of the most notable companies are ADNOC, Baker Hughes Company, Chart Industries, Enbridge Inc., NAFTA a. s., NOV Inc., Royal Vopak, TransCanada PipeLines Ltd, and others.
