Oil and Gas Storage Market Highlights:-

Oil and gas are increasingly stored to meet the growing demand for energy. Oil is stored in tankers and other stationary facilities so it can be transported over vast distances and regions to meet the demand. Gas, on the other hand needs to be stored underground in facilities such as depleted oil and gas fields, salt caverns and aquifers.

As the global oil and gas industry is increasingly witnessing a drop in oil prices, OPEC countries are increasingly storing their oil and natural gas products to make profit when the prices climb back.

Underground storage facilities are chiefly used for storing gaseous forms of natural gas, especially in ground formations such as in salt caverns, aquifers and depleted reservoirs of oil and gas fields. The different storage types have their own physical characteristics such as porosity, permeability, maintenance cost and other miscellaneous cost associated with the site. Oil is usually stored in containers, ships and other facilities so they can be transported effectively. The growing demand for oil and natural gas has resulted in increase in exploration of oil and gas fields, which are used as aboveground and underground facilities.

Industry Top Key Players:-

The major players operating in oil and gas storage market are Royal Vopak N.V. (The Netherlands), TechnipFMC plc (U.K.), Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P. (U.S.), Amec Foster Wheeler plc (UK), The Vitol Group (The Netherlands), WorleyParsons Limited (Australia), Niska Gas Storage Partners LLC (U.S.), Centrica plc (U.K.) and Chiyoda Corporation (Japan).

Scope of the Report:-

The report studies key players, providing a five-year annual trend analysis that highlights market size, volume and share for North America, Europe, Asia Pacific (APAC) and Rest of the World (ROW). The report also provides a forecast, focusing on the market opportunities for the next five years for each region. The scope of the study segments the global oil and gas storage market by product type, by storage type and by region.

Market Research Analysis:-

Natural gas storage is expected to dominate the market in terms of product type. With gas being increasingly used for providing domestic heating in North America and Europe regions, storing gas for winter season demand is of prime importance to the countries in the region. Countries are eager to take advantage of the price drop of natural gas and are procuring it more than the required demand. This procured gas has to be stored so that it can be used again in the state of winter season demand. Natural gas is stored in underground inventory such as depleted reservoirs in oil and/or natural gas fields, aquifers, and salt cavern formations. Liquefied natural gas is stored in liquid or gaseous forms above ground.
