(Food-Beverage-News.Com, July 31, 2017 ) "Distributed Control System Market by Industry (Oil & Gas, Chemicals, Power Generation, Metals & Mining, Pharmaceutical, Paper & Pulp, Food & Beverage), by Component (Hardware, Software, & Services), by Application, and by Region - Global Forecast to 2020 ", The global Distributed Control System (DCS) market is expected to reach USD 19.82 Billion by 2020, at a CAGR of 4.91% from 2015 to 2020.
Asia-Pacific is estimated to be the largest DCS market in 2015, and is expected to have the highest growth during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to increasing investments in renewable power generation.
North America is expected to be the second largest market, after Asia-Pacific, because of the use of DCS in the oil & gas sector. Unconventional exploration is one of the major factors driving the growth of the DCS market in the region.
Power Generation end-use industry to register the highest growth
The power generation segment requires DCS for process automation of power plants because of its ability to integrate PLCs, third- party controls, safety systems, and turbomachinery controls, and to monitor and control power plant processes such as water quality, feedwater heaters, and heat exchangers. This segment is expected to exhibit the highest growth rate during the forecast period of 2015 to 2020. This growth is attributed to increasing power generation capacities in countries in Asia-Pacific, such as China and India, to meet the growing electricity demand. This in turn would require deployment of industrial automation solutions such as DCS.
The process industry segment is expected to lead the market
The process industry segment includes industries such as oil & gas, chemicals, power generation, and water & wastewater treatment. It is one of the fastest growing applications for the DCS market. Highly attractive outlook for nuclear and renewable sectors in the power generation industry, increasing production of chemicals, and high demand for the desalination industry are the major factors driving the continuous process market.
The Middle East region has been increasingly focusing on expanding its manufacturing capabilities. The primary reason for this move is to change the region’s role as a raw material supplier to a finished goods provider, within the manufacturing industry. Additionally, in a purview to develop an economy which is less oil-dependent, the Middle East countries have been increasingly focusing on its manufacturing sector. The positive outlook for the expansion of the manufacturing industry is expected to boost the demand for the DCS market.
