Considerable attention continues to be geared towards the design of new armored cables with enhanced durability, flexibility and operational characteristics in extreme conditions. These innovations include the possibility of using high-strength materials including steels and aluminum for armoring of the cables to make them more resistant to mechanical and environmental impacts. Moreover, innovation in insulation materials and conductors is leading to cables with improved electrical, thermal characteristics, corrosion, chemicals, and heat resistance. The increase in offshore oil and gas exploration, particularly in deepwater fields, is a market driver of armored cables. These cables are particularly important for reliable and uninterrupted cradle power and intercom systems onboard offshore platforms as these devices are subjected to severe marine environments.
New offshore basins mean more oil companies are progressing into deeper and more distant locations, which creates a need for durable cabling. All Oil and gas regulatory bodies are starting to have more robust regulations on health and safety in the oil and gas sector. Armored cables contribute greatly to meeting the requirements of these regulations by preventing electrical failures and reducing the chances of ignitions and explosions. Growing regulatory measures pertaining to safety are leading some oil and gas companies to switch to armored cables in their exploration, production and refining activities.
Based on armor type, the interlocked segment of the oil & gas armored cable industry is estimated to exceed USD 14.4 billion by 2034, owing to superior mechanical strength, flexibility and durability. Interlocked armor enables better protection against physical damage, moiture, and other environmental factors, which make it suitable for industrial, commercial and outdoor applications where cables are exposed to harsh conditions. This segment growth is fueled by the demand for strong and reliable cable solutions in construction, energy and telecommunication industries which have increased safety and external protection requirements.
The multi-core segment of the oil & gas armored cable market is estimated to register a CAGR of more than 7% by 2034, due to increased adoption of multi-core cables translated to high performance and reliable electrical services in critical infrastructures of the oil and gas sector. The multi core armored cable is of increased usefulness since it is more flexible, has greater mechanical strength, and superior durability.
A single wire is able to transmit several power or signal channels. Such a cable is best suited for sophisticated and even aid institutional settings including oil platforms and offshore rigs. These accomplices are capable of operating in extreme environmental conditions including high temperature, constant vibration, and corrosive chemicals which are essential for unattended structural safety and operational performance of oil and gas activities.
The U.S. oil & gas armored cable market is expected to exceed USD 4.1 billion by 2034 on account of growing requirement for safe, dependable, and robust electrical products in farming, construction, and telecommunication. Multi-core armored cables are designed for environments where protection from severe mechanical stresses, moisture, and other forms of damage is needed making them very suitable for power distribution, industrial automation, and oil & gas infrastructure. This coupled with the growth of renewable energy projects and increasing investments in infrastructure development will increase the need for oil & gas armored cable.
The Asia Pacific oil & gas armored cable market is undergoing remarkable industrial development, especially within countries including China, India, Japan, and South Korea. This urbanization as well as the industrialization of these countries escalates the requirement for strong and effective electrical infrastructure, which comprises multi-core armored cables. Such cables are needed by industrial plants, commercial buildings, and power distribution systems where safety and durability are vital.
Leaders in the oil & gas armored cable industry including Prysmian Group and Belden Inc. continue to get an edge over their competition because of their experience in the industry. These companies have extensive portfolios which include specialized power and multi-core armored cables for different voltages as well as application specific customizations for the industrial automation, renewable energy, and infrastructure sectors.
