Dublin, Jan. 28, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Flexible pipes - Global Market Outlook (2017-2026)" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Global Flexible Pipes market accounted for $915.93 million in 2017 and is expected to reach $1,470.07 million by 2026 growing at a CAGR of 5.4% during the forecast period.

Increasing demand for engineering grade flexible materials, rise in activities such as exploration of oil & gas reserves and technological advances in the drilling process are the factors propelling the market growth. However, stringent regulations in the oil & gas industry and decreasing crude oil prices are some of the factors hindering the market growth. Moreover, the discovery of new oil reserves is providing ample opportunities for the market growth.

A flexible pipe is a vacuum type tube made to carry fluids from one place to another. These pipes are utilized in offshore and onshore oil & gas exploration and creation process. Flexible pipe is characterized by a composite construction of layers of different materials, which allows large amplitude deflections without adverse effects on the pipe.

By application, offshore flexible pipes are broadly used in applications such as chemical injection pipes and risers. These pipes assist to explore and expand petroleum reserves that are situated beneath a water body, such as river, sea, lake, or ocean. Offshore drilling and production activities are rising due to the growing importance of profound and ultra-deepwater activities in most of the regions.

Based on geography, North America is attributed to held growth during the forecast period due to the rising number of oil and gas E&P activities being undertaken. Factors such as industrial advancements in horizontal and pad drilling and the large quantity of shale oil and gas reserves will enhance the use of flexible pipes in the exploration of oil and gas in the region.
