Market Trends of North America Low Voltage Induction Motors Industry

Oil and Gas to be the Largest End-user Industry

  • Low voltage induction motors are expected to gain significant popularity in the oil and gas industry as they are significantly used to drive pumps, compressors, and turbines along with their usage to extract, process, and transport oil and gas from wells to refineries to consumers. Additionally, in refineries, low-voltage induction motors are used to drive pumps, compressors, and agitators. They are utilized for refining crude oil into various products, such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, and many others.
  • Moreover, low voltage induction motor might be utilized for powering a pump that moves liquids through distillation columns or catalytic crackers, to drive a compressor that surges the pressure of gases for further processing or separation, and to run an agitator that mixes liquids or solids in reactors or tanks.
  • Furthermore, these motors' power is used to support the extraction, processing, storage, and transportation of products such as crude oil, petroleum, and natural gas. Specifically, low-voltage induction motors power the drilling process by providing an energy source for the rig's draw works and other machinery. They provide power for many applications throughout onshore and offshore drilling operations and drive fluid-control equipment such as pumps, fans, and compressors used by the oil and gas industry.
  • Electric motors play a key role in the upstream side of the oil and gas industry and are widely used to drive equipment, such as pump and compressor systems. They may have a dramatic impact on energy consumption. Additionally, with the need to limit CO2 emissions and new environmental regulations coming into force in recent years, oil and gas businesses are becoming more aware of the importance of choosing energy-efficient motors. Because energy consumption accounts for 96% of the total life cycle cost of a motor, paying extra for a premium efficiency motor will result in a return on investment over its lifespan. This has significantly led to the rising importance of low-voltage induction motors.
  • The United States is the world's major producer of oil and natural gas. For instance, according to EIA, the production of crude oil is expected to reach 30.01 quadrillion Btu by 2030. Additionally, Texas (United States) produces the country's major share of crude oil and is expected to hold a significant demand for production equipment.

The United States Expected to Hold Significant Market Share

  • The United States has one of the largest manufacturing industries in the world, and the sector is also a significant contributor to the country's economic growth. For instance, according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in 2021, manufacturing contributed USD 2.3 trillion to the country's GDP amounting to 12.0% of the total US GDP.
  • The US manufacturers are among the leading adopters of Industry 4.0. Investments in advanced technologies, like big data and analytics, the Internet of Things (IoT), robotics, cloud computing, etc., are rising at a rapid pace in the region. For instance, as per the findings of a new study from Conexus, Indiana, published in December 2021, the number of advanced manufacturers in Indiana, United States, that adopted or grown next-generation technologies had doubled since the previous year.
  • Conexus partnered with the Indiana University Kelley School of Business Center for Excellence in Manufacturing to survey around 140 companies. As per the organization, over 40% of the respondents implemented Industry 4.0 technology, including cloud computing, IoT, and artificial intelligence (AI). The growing implementation of Industry 4.0 in the country is expected to boost the adoption of electric motors significantly.
  • Growing investments in the region by major players in the market are also indicative of the growth potential in the country. For instance, in April 2023, ABB announced that it was committed to growing in the United States, and this would be reached by investing in its electrification and automation businesses that meet increased demand. The company announced plans to invest USD 170 million in several US projects, including a greenfield drives and services facility in New Berlin, Wisconsin.
  • The United States is the world's major producer of oil and natural gas. According to the Council on Foreign Relations, the United States now produces around 75% of its crude oil and 90% of its natural gas supply domestically. By 2021, the country was producing nearly eleven million barrels of crude oil per day and about one hundred billion cubic feet of gas per day. AC induction motors are widely used in the oil and gas industry because of their simplicity, reliability, and low cost. According to Baker Hughes, the number of oil and gas rigs operating in the country increased from 610 in January 2022 to 771 by January 2023.
